A boundary shows me where I end and someone else begins, leading me to a sense of ownership, knowing that what I own, who I am, I take responsibility for. That actually gives me freedom.
Ever feel like you're constantly juggling other people's needs and forgetting your own? Heidi Mortenson, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, tackles this very issue in an enlightening episode of the 'Strong Tower Mental Health' podcast. She dives into the tricky terrain of setting healthy boundaries, even with those closest to us, like family members. Imagine needing space from your mom or sister – it's tough, right?
But Heidi reassures us that it's not just possible, but essential for our well-being. Through relatable stories and practical advice, Heidi explains why boundaries are crucial for maintaining our mental health. She draws on the example of Jesus, who healed many but didn't overextend Himself. By listening to His Father's voice, He knew His limits and stayed true to His purpose. Heidi encourages listeners to develop this same discernment in their own lives.
The episode also touches on the importance of teaching children about boundaries. Heidi believes that understanding where we end and others begin gives us a sense of ownership and freedom. She shares insights on how to recognize codependency and take responsibility for our own actions, which can lead to a more fulfilling life. Whether you're struggling with saying 'no' or finding it hard to set limits with loved ones, this episode offers valuable guidance.
Tune in to learn how you can unlock a sense of peace and purpose by establishing healthy boundaries.
