How To Set And Maintain Healthy Boundaries - Deepstash

How To Set And Maintain Healthy Boundaries

1. Self-reflection: Take time to understand why a certain something (personal space, time alone, get-togethers with friends) is important to you and how you will benefit from it.

2. If you don’t have many boundaries in place yet, build your additions slowly. Introducing them all at once might overwhelm you and those around you. Doing so also gives you time to assess whether it’s heading in the right direction or if it needs some tweaking.

3. Set them early

By setting boundaries and expectations from the very beginning, everyone knows where they stand from the get go-conficts can be avoided.
