Setting Boundaries Is Not Selfish; It's Survival!

Setting Boundaries Is Not Selfish; It's Survival!

One of the hardest challenges we must face in life is learning how to set boundaries within our relationships. What makes it so hard is the fact that we have grown so used to being a certain way, that it can feel like we are learning to walk again once we decide to put our foot down. Unfortunately, most people will never learn to set necessary boundaries, and I do not want you to fall into that category.
 
In this post, we will talk about recognizing when we need to take a step back and reevaluate some of the unhealthy boundaries we have in place currently. It is not selfish to value the relationship you have with yourself and to notice when you may be giving up too much of who you are. Creating boundaries is essential to your happiness, and it is a means of surviving this often, cruel world.
 
Thank you for reading. I appreciate you.

Dear Moderation, Who are you? And why have we never met?

Dear Moderation, Who are you? And why have we never met?

Is there something in your life that you could probably use less of? Whether that be technology, alcohol, caffeine, or prescription drugs, there are so many of us that have formed bad habits, that we no longer recognize what we have lost control over. Moderation in all things in life is an important thing to learn, because as I have gotten older, I have learned that too much of anything can be bad. Lack of balance can lead to addiction. So at what point does a habit become a problem, and at what point do we need to address it? Moderation is a good thing to practice at all ages, and in everything we do.
