Boundaries refer to the limits and guidelines we set for ourselves and others in various aspects of our lives, including emotional, physical, and mental boundaries. These limits help us define what is acceptable and what is not, and they help us to protect our wellbeing, safety, and happiness.

Having boundaries means being clear about our limits, and communicating them to others in a respectful manner. For example, setting emotional boundaries means being clear about what behaviours or actions are not acceptable to us, and expressing our needs and feelings when they are violated.

Having boundaries is an essential aspect of self-care and personal growth. It helps us to establish healthy relationships, improve our self-esteem, and create a sense of safety and security in our lives. At the same time, having boundaries allows us to respect the boundaries of others, and build mutually beneficial relationships based on trust, respect, and understanding.
