I think it's a bit typical of the times we are living in, the "ME" generation. I believe quite often, the person your dealing with just needs someone to understand them instead of judging them. I believe in taking the time to care and explore what's underneath them, vs my own personal needs. This is not disrespecting my own person imo. I have turned situations around, even prevented a suicide on my way home from work because I took the time to talk to a young girl who literally was in the middle of street on ground banging her own head against the pavement in traffic!

It was not an emergency, she just felt entitled. I informed her she needed to leave right after that and I haven’t let her back in any of my living spaces since.

Dead silence/non-reaction scares narcissists, haters, people who don't respect your boundaries, and people who are jealous/envious of you. Jealousy can mean a lot of things: rumors, competition, lies. They look down on you. They don’t miss any detail of how you are dressed or how you act, etc. They are always hanging on what others are doing or saying. They are often critical and judgmental. They often reveal things to others. They never have enough of anything; they are never satisfied. They always believe that other people are more fortunate and get everything. Often they are not creative. In fact, it is common for them to copy others. And they are happy when others fail. There will always be jealous people around you. You will come across them in your friend groups, in your workplace, in your neighborhood, and even in your family. Don’t let yourself be susceptible to this negativity, nor let it bring you down.

I've never had boundaries before, and this weekend I realised something I just wanted to share here. I was starting to feel anxious at one point, and when I looked at it, or just felt it, I realised that it was my energy levels getting lower, getting closer to my own boundaries, and because I never even had boundaries before anxiety kicks in because my body doesn't trust that it's gonna be taken care of. And only then did I realise that I was in need of some time to recharge. I really want to let myself know that I am here now, that I will take care of myself and listen when I'm tired. (instead of getting angry or frustrated that I 'shouldn't feel tired so easily' or 'other people can handle more') That moment made me realise that it's more than just taking rest, it's rebuilding trust with myself and working through that old anxiety.

Learning how to create healthy boundaries is a skill worth learning. I like the ebook Healthy Boundaries by MotherTree Consulting. Whichever route you choose, I trust & believe You'll get there!

I agree with you when the other person becomes aggressive or abusive or just wouldn't give you a chance to speak... or if it is about something that doesn't concern your relationship with this person (like politics etc.) and I totally get where you coming from. I just feel that I have to mention another way of using that sort of response... I also made the experience that whenever I wanted to talk about something that felt uncomfortable for the other person, he would just walk away, saying exactly that: "let's not talk about this, I don't like talking about this..." with the result that we never could solve any issues because without communication it is not possible. Well, as I am learning, it is his choice at the end of the day... and the only option it leaves me is to walk away from that person all together... it's painful, but luckily there are no children involved...However, if this is a "healthy boundary" to just refuse any communication about any uncomfortable topic... I don't know...

It is definitely not healthy to walk away from any topic a person doesn’t want to address but if they are screaming and degrading you, you shouldn’t stay for that convo is what I’m gathering from the comments. Addressing issues is critical in any relationship and walking away isn’t a boundary in all circumstances. Sometimes it’s avoidance. But you are right. At the end of the day, a boundary is you deciding what you will do if someone isn’t behaving safely within your boundaries. You cannot force your mate to change but you can say this isn’t what is best for me and walk away yourself from the unhealthy relationship. ❤️

My minister has an evening candlelit meditation service once a month. I am highly sensitive to perfumes candles. I really want to be part of it because I love listening to the live organ music during the meditation. As the church is filled with burning candles for atmosphere, I offered to supply battery operated candles so I could participate . No more than 5 people come and I know they wouldn’t mind. As the minister sets the tone, she will not accommodate me and even insinuates that I am faking my sensitivities. Therefore, I am happy to meditate to my own music and battery operated candles in the comfort of my own home. “I get to make my own rules on my road to happiness!”

Thank you for this talk. I've been married for 44 years and always had a hard time keeping my own boundaries. When I would get home from work I found that everything was planned for me to do with the kids and I simply just went along whether I wanted to or not. I felt that it wasn't considered that maybe I didn't want to do all the family obligations. So now, as I retire, I'm working hard to find what it is that I really want to do with my own time. And wow am I getting push back in many ways when I try to establish a boundary. I'm persevering, though. It's tough when you've always been a nice guy and then seek some independence only to have a passive aggressive, whining, manipulative schmooze hit your little fence.

I’m so glad especially that last part, because whenever I’ve tried setting a boundary, I invariably get the pushback. Guilt trips, telling me I’m being unreasonable, attacking my character, etc. So thank you for addressing potential pushback. Some people are reasonable about it because they needed to be corrected, or maybe others were okay with the misbehavior or really were not, but never said anything, and so they may apologize and say they won’t do it again. They might not have realized they overstepped. Most, however will pushback because they are the types who don’t respect other’s boundaries in the first place and that’s why you have to go through the trouble of setting them in the first place. Others out there have the common decency to be respectful enough in general so it’s unnecessary to have to have these awkward conversations with them and things usually go smoothly with them. Sometimes it’s strangers asking impertinent questions or other rude behavior, but often times, boundaries have to be set with relatives and friends and significant others.

Thank you for this. I have been taking decisions in favor of other people's wishes just because I'd rather be resented than feeling guilty. Tonight I was about to say yes to an unhealthy situation just because of that. Putting on this video tonight may have saved me from a lot of pain. Thank you so much.

You are so right! It goes both ways. Others have their boundaries, which is their right. As one (or I) have mine.

Julia, it's like you know me. I have trouble setting boundaries as an adult because I was never taught how to set healthy boundaries. I was basically raised with the mindset of "do as I say, not as I do." So, I was basically set up for failure from the start.

This is a cutting-edge channel. I am glad that I have stumbled upon it. My wife comes from a culture where people (and particularly in-laws) do cross boundaries pretty often and resent being told that they shouldn't and, often, Western husbands end up becoming doormats because they fear losing their relationship. It's hard to strike a balance between showing acceptance, acknowledgment and appreciation and being strict about setting and keeping strong and firm boundaries in this kind of relationship, and all the more so, because most of the time those people cross boundaries out of ignorance and because of how the environment they grew up in shaped them. So, for me, showing understanding, trying to see reality from their point of view, and being strict about setting firm boundaries is a rather tall order to fill and a delicate balance to strike. Greetings from Italy

I just finished listening to your video and i got to say thank you so much! I just got the courage to say out loud to an office friend that i have a routine and i like to eat lunch alone. If it wasnt for your video i would have sucked it up and let her take my break time. I feel so much better now that i dont have to feel uncomfortable just because i want to please someone else. I have the right to have my time and my space alone. I cant wait to talk to my M.I.L. about setting a boundary of not coming over without texting or calling first. Fingers cross that it goes well!

Update: I have talked to my mother in law and it went great. I had to really think of the correct words to use so I wouldn't get anger in return and she just agreed to my boundaries and that was the end of it. Now hopefully it won't be happening again but if it does im just going to have to remind her that I have this line drawn and she should respect it. Thanks for all your information on setting boundaries it's really helped me grow as an individual

I loved this video! I found it to be very easy to follow and appreciated the examples. I have trouble making boundaries. I have had family members who were so domineering and making inappropriate comments that hurt my feelings. One of there excuses was, " Oh, didn't mean anything by it". I don't care, it still hurt my feelings. After they still continued to be controlling,judgemental, and making snide comments I decided that I don't have to continue putting myself in that position anymore. I decided to not see them anymore and I don't regret it. After over twenty years of all kinds of abuse by another family member I decided I don't have to take any abuse or be the butt of anyone's jokes. I am an RN and feel this video can help me set boundaries with my patients as well. Thanks so much for this video! ❤ ; )

Amazing. I wish I’ve learned that earlier and I wish I could follow those tips and be more assertive. Last time I clearly stated that I don’t want to talk politics to a friend who constantly picks up provocative topics to argue they said : no, it’s important to talk about those things! People need to talk about those things! And I responded: you won’t change my mind but the relationship will stuffer. She replied, «but I’m not trying to change your mind. But here is where you’re wrong…» lol.

I usually was able to affirm/set a boundary or express myself but wouldn’t oftentimes discuss the repercussions because I would allow them to sink in the boundary first & then know what I would take action upon thereto of i.e. nonverbally (and then would voice its repercussion - verbally). ✅ I likely could start making them be more clearer. Definitely. ❤️ To start with. Thank you! Am still watching, :) “Boundary is - It’s about saying if you do this then I will do this.” ✅ Establishing & keeping your boundaries (extremely vital: I always get guilt creeping up on me) - 1) Get very clear on your boundaries. *Spend time forming the boundary & Like your boundary & Believe you’re worthy of having this space with your own rules even if other people do not agree with them, or follow them or even test/pushback on your boundary/your limits. Getting Clear on your reasons & believe you’re deserving to say no.* 2) Implement the boundary by either Saying the boundary (if you do this or continue to do this then I will do this). OR doing it non-verbally. *Yikes: I know someone like this👎* Can change the subject, not engage, limp to vague engagement. Short & surface responses. Continuing to and/or being direct in your actions(I believe this is more Preferable because realistically we are not mind readers - So always speak directly I believe). 3) More Difficult BUT Stating your Boundary & Sticking to Your Boundary. *Caving in or settling happens (I struggle with this !) … Cause they learn to do pushback & your boundaries don’t then become believable. *They’ll stop pushing when you’re resistant. Consistency is Vital. You’ve Already Done The Work so Stick To It.* - Respect your own boundaries & like the reasons for your boundaries. [These are nearly all sampled from the video above!!]

I have been told that I need to be more firm with setting boundaries with others especially those close to me but for some reason I felt that it is hard especially when it comes across as disrespect to other but I’m starting to listen to how I think and feel and value and putting myself first. I will download your list. Thanks for sharing this ❤️

I unfortunately was raised by someone who was an addict. My mom did everything to please that individual in which I was taught to as well. It was always well if you love them. It is not them its a disease. I feel for a man who mentally continued this cycle. Unfortunately it lead to a demostic violence charges on my x.I am now in the situation were he took my kids with no visitation rights. All because I never learned how to set boundaries. I learned id I please this person my needs will be met.

What about when you have had so many people treat you with abuse, betrayal and breaching of your boundaries and you begin to numb out and develop cognitive dissonance. Eventually you don't even know what your boundaries are anymore. I know someone this happened to. They don't even know their own boundaries any more and just let people do what they want since they are so numb to it.

Spend some time alone. Try relaxing sound baths and self love meditations on KZfaq. Be kind to yourself and replace every negative thought with a kind one. Eventually your mind and body will begin to remember your boundaries.

Boundaries is placed so that we can love others and being able to have a healthy relationship and continue in that healthy relationship. When people set Boundaries on me is because they love me and they want to keep a loving relationship with me. So Boundaries is loving others as you love yourself.

One thing I noticed about this was that you may want to refrain from using the term "drinking the Kool-Aid." When speaking of mental health, this is probably not the most effective phrase. This is said with love, please don't think I'm being snarky, I'm truly not, but I was a bit shocked when you said that. It has a very negative connotation in reference to a very positive and vital topic. Keep informing the masses! Most Sincerely, JJ.

Too many people also have unhealthy boundaries that don't do anything but cause more harm to themselves, and/or others. Good to be able to tell the difference between healthy and unhealthy boundaries. And limits are different than boundaries. Lean to love looking up the definitions of words, please people.
