This episode of Reframing Me provides an understanding of the rules that operate within our family system that set up boundaries to maintain our roles. Rules are relationship agreements that are established over time through the interactions within our families. Rules are probabilities, not laws. Family systems require a degree of predictability to survive. Rules guide our behavior and provide a framework for how a family functions. When rules are broken, there must be a sanction or it ceases to be a rule. And sometimes, we overreact to these broken rules. Growth comes from recognizing that we can’t control what arises in us, but we can control our response to it. It’s ok to have emotions arise, note them without judgment. And if you do react, respond with kindness to yourself.
