How to Set Healthy Boundaries: Your Mandala of Protection
One-time, in-person workshop on Sunday November 16th, 1-4 pm
(see complete registration details below description)
Are there people in your life that ask too much, that behave in ways that don't feel good to you? Do you find it challenging to say "NO"? Are you worried that if you turn down an invitation or back out of plans that you’ll let everyone down? Are you confused about the best ways to talk about your needs? Worried about how to set limits with family as you head into the holidays? Do you find yourself often feeling resentment toward others but saying nothing?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, it’s time for you to get some support in setting healthy, life-affirming boundaries that will improve the quality of your life, and paradoxically, improve your relationships, too!
Every living being in the natural world, every plant and animal, has instinctive and well understood ways of seeking to get their essential needs met and protecting themselves from potential harm. As humans, we need to reclaim the importance of honoring our own needs and limits and let go of the ways we have learned NOT to do so. We all need to be able to set boundaries about how we spend our time, who we spend it with, and the ways we interact with others. Many of us were not taught how to prioritize our needs. I can support you in learning these valuable life lessons! Many people need help figuring out what boundaries are best for them and how to effectively communicate and uphold those boundaries with the people in their lives (including family members, partners, work colleagues, bosses, etc.). By helping others in these situations I have developed highly effective, easy to learn lessons that help us to do this important work.
In this hands-on, participatory workshop you will learn information to help you:
*Understand what your needs are
*Develop appreciation for the importance of prioritizing yourself
*How to be in balance in meeting your needs while supporting and honoring others’ needs, too
*Learn helpful ways to express your needs to others (including precise language to use!)
*Deal with any backlash or pushback from setting boundaries
*Explore making difficult decisions about relationships with family
During our time together we will also use the beauty of the mandala to explore a creative, hands-on process that will help you begin your boundary setting work while in the supportive context of the workshop. You are guaranteed to walk away with new-to-you useful tools, practices, language, and self-care practices to help you reclaim your time and energy.
