Jordan Pickell, trauma and relationship therapist, on setting boundaries for a happier life
Jordan is a private practice therapist and mom of 2 kiddos who lives in Canada. Jordan works to support people to deepen their understanding of themselves and affirm their needs, wants, and desires as valid and deserving of respect.
What we talked about
- How boundaries encompass everything
- Paying attention to the body is so important to recognizing your boundaries
- When we set boundaries, it allows us to feel closer to other people because there is a mutual care and respect
- For those of us who aren’t used to setting boundaries, we can swing in the opposite direction and get too firm on setting them
- Some boundaries will always make us feel awkward and uncomfortable
- Physical boundaries for our kids-making it clear to family and friends that our children have the choice whether or not to give hugs and kisses
- Think about where you are feeling resentful and irritated and which relationships are causing that
- Having simple and clear statements can be really helpful
- How do we recognize when someone else is trying to set their boundary?
- It’s ok to sit in the discomfort and feelings we have about it, but need to respect their boundary
- Honoring our kids boundaries and determining when things feel unreasonable
- Telling our kids that their feelings, wants and needs are important even if they can’t always be met
- Our kids are sometimes looking to us to set the boundaries for them
