Do you have difficulty prioritizing your needs and setting boundaries for your self-care? People struggle with this because they tend to put others’ needs in front of them. This is a way of avoiding conflict and making other people happy. 

But setting boundaries is an important key for self-care. The truth is that they protect us physically and emotionally, so they are crucial for our well-being. 

What are healthy boundaries?

In the dictionary, you can find boundaries, such as a line that marks the boundaries of an area. So maybe it transmits the idea of keeping yourself separate. 

But boundary is a limit or space between you and another person. They speak to what we identify as making us comfortable or not. Maybe at the beginning, you will still see them as a separation, but with practice, you will understand that they are connecting points. They will provide healthy rules for all your relationships, with family, friends, in the professional field, and with you.
