Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love yourself, even when you risk disappointing others. And that is exactly what the Universe wants us to do today-to set better boundaries so we can experience more freedom. Today, acknowledge that boundaries can actually help you to recognize your own needs. They can show you that it is perfectly acceptable to have needs and to take care of them-always, not just sometimes. And, not having healthy boundaries allows you to deny your needs, usually through numbing behaviors, such as: addiction, overworking, overspending, over planning, overthinking, overdrinking, procrastination, people-pleasing, and unhealthy relationships. Whatever your personal preference, all of those behaviors allow you to disconnect from who you really are and how you really feel. The more you deny your needs, the louder they shout to try and get your attention, so you have to keep numbing away to quiet them down, and that’s no way to live. Today, recognize that you must establish boundaries to promote and protect your self-care, self-worth, and self-love. It is only from that place that you can look after yourself, which allows you to truly be there for others. Boundaries allow you to take control rather than allowing others to control you, and conversely allow you to give more to others because you come from a place of abundance rather than lack. To create boundaries for yourself you have to tune in to your personal needs and your true feelings. The more you can understand your true feelings and attune to yourself, the easier it becomes to set and maintain your personal boundaries, in any situation. Today, focus on becoming aware of where you need to set better boundaries and in the process you will become better at getting your needs met and being able to give without resentment. The way you treat yourself sets the standards for everyone else. Today set better boundaries and set higher standards for everyone in your life and know that each time you set a healthy boundary, you say yes to more freedom.

Just for today, I respect my healthy boundaries and I insist others to do. I am a master at setting healthy boundaries that protect my time, energy, creativity and well being. I deserve respect and communicate that in all my relationships. I am safe. I am willing to change and everything is always working out for my highest good. And so it is.
