    BOUNDARIES

    DIANNE CONGRESO

    •Aware or NOT, we all have
    boundaries
    Kabantay o Wala, tanan ta nay
    gitawag nga Boundaries
    • Throughout the recovery process, we discover that
    our first responsibility is always ourselves.

    • Boundaries help us clarify where our


    responsibilities end and where other people’s
    begin.

    • By establishing healthy boundaries, we slowly learn


    to take care of our issues and recognize that
    others have the same privilege.

    ESTABLISHING INTERNAL
    BOUNDARIES
    WHY ARE BOUNDARIES IMPORTANT?
    • By setting boundary, you no longer allow others
    to take advantage of you and you begin to find
    your voice and learn how to use it.
    • Your communication improves as you express
    your thoughts and feelings
    • HEALTHY BOUNDARY = HEALTHY
    RELATIONSHIPS
    HEALTHY BOUNDARIES
    • Encouraging sharing feelings and thoughts
    • Honoring your personal values and beliefs even if
    others may not agree with them
    • Respecting others
    • Taking responsibility for all that YOU do or say
    • Taking full ownership and responsibility in defining
    yourself
    STEPS TO CREATING HEALTHY
    BOUNDARIES
    SET LIMITS
    • Set limits. Letting the other person know how far
    they can go. Stating that you want to be spoken to
    respectfully and do not want to be put down or
    screamed at.
    BE ASSERTIVE
    • If you feel that someone is ignoring the set
    boundaries, you must speak up.
    • Being assertive is polite yet firm about your
    stance. Be clear about what isn’t working for
    you and keep communication open.
    RESPECT OTHER PEOPLE’S
    BOUNDARIES
    • Do not forget that you’re not the only one in a
    relationship. The other person’s boundaries are just
    as important as yours, even if they are different than
    yours.
