Maintaining healthy boundaries is not always easy or pleasant, but it will increase your sense of safety and connection both with yourself and with the world.
Ever feel like you're constantly giving but not getting enough in return? It might be time to reassess your personal boundaries. In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast with DocSnipes', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes dives into the art of setting and maintaining healthy boundaries. She starts by identifying the symptoms of weak boundaries, often seen in those from addicted or codependent households, and explains how these can leave you feeling drained and overwhelmed.
On the flip side, she also discusses rigid boundaries that can block intimacy and connection in your life. Dr. Snipes then breaks down the different types of boundaries—physical, emotional, cognitive, environmental, and interpersonal—and offers practical tips for maintaining each. Assertiveness plays a key role here; you can't expect others to read your mind. Cultural differences and love languages also come into play, influencing how we set and perceive boundaries.
Self-esteem and self-validation are crucial for effective boundary-setting, as is knowing how to cope when boundaries are violated. Mindfulness and distress tolerance can help you stay grounded and connected, both to yourself and others. If you're aiming to improve your relationships and boost your well-being, this episode is packed with valuable advice. Tune in to learn how to set boundaries that protect your energy and enhance your life.
