Mindful Minute: Boundaries and Wellness
Want Better Work-Life Balance? Set a Boundary
By Marta Manus
When people think of boundaries, they often think of limits or rules. Boundaries often imply learning to say “no” to others. I like to think of boundaries as the foundation of any healthy relationship, including your relationship with yourself and others. Boundaries are empowering, and an important aspect of self-care, which is something we could all use a bit more of. Boundaries are saying “yes” to yourself and teaching others how to treat you. Setting boundaries with ourselves and others, including colleagues and bosses, is essential if we want to create a healthy work/life experience. We have to get comfortable with setting healthy personal and professional boundaries.
