Too many of us have really poor boundaries, invading other people space and allowing others to invade ours. When we learn to be aware of our own boundaries and others, we honor and take care of our physical, emotional and mental space. Our whole being feels respected and safe.
When we don\’t we experience anger, anxiety, resentment and our self trust is low because we don\’t feel we can take care of ourselves.
First step in reclaiming your space, stop saying YES to people and situation when what you really want is to say NO.
Watch my video on: the ecstasy of saying No: http://youtu.be/rgwsz0pPQJ8
YOUR SPACE
- You can\’t say No. And even when you do you feel guilty or uncomfortable.
- You are always available for others and have no problem cutting the flow of what you are doing to make sure others are happy.
- You have little Me time and when you do you aren\’t sure what to do with it because you haven\’t taken any for a long time.
- You get easily affected by others\’ energies and emotions.
OTHERS SPACE
- You give people opinions on their life and choices without them asking for it. You try to fix their problems beyond what they are willing or ready to do.
- You cut people when they are talking.
- You jump into conversation, giving direction, imposing your opinion or judging what\’s being said without taking the time to understand the dynamic/situation and each people space.
- You try to impose your rhythm to others. You want people to be ready when you are. You have a hard time understanding that each person has a different way to process, understand and address situations and problems. You won\’t people to comply to your desires, needs and timing without considering theirs or dismissing theirs.
- You often arrive late to function, events or classes. You cancel last minute on people disrespecting their time and energy.
