Personal boundaries are a way of protecting our time, space and energy.
These four types of boundaries have made a significant impact on my life, and I hope they inspire you to get curious and experiment with setting limits for yourself.
Physical boundaries are limits that relate to space and our environment. Sometimes they are quite personal. For example, you might need to tell someone that you prefer to shake hands instead of hugging when saying hello.
Mental boundaries can be harder to explain because we can’t always see when a line has been crossed—but we all know how it feels.
Time boundaries are limits to how you spend your time and honestly, I find this one of the toughest to enforce. There are several reasons for this: -people-pleasing -the planning fallacy - busyness culture
Financial boundaries can look like creating a budget, deciding not to buy certain things, or setting limits for purchases.
