37 Ways To Reduce Your Anxiety - #12 Know Your Boundaries

When you know something is not right for you, respect yourself enough to say no. You'll either put someone else's needs, or your own needs first.

A boundary is a standard you declare within your relationships. An example of setting a boundary, could be saying "no" to a person that has been taking advantage of you.

Don't make up any elaborate stories, or excuses. Be direct and come from your heart when setting your new boundaries. Remember 'a user' will get angry when you set a boundary, a respectful person will not.

You can set boundaries about how you use your time, what you are wanting to do in the bedroom, how you are treated at work and just about anything else you can think of.

The less boundaries you have, the more anxious you will be. Why not make a list of the situations you feel you need to set boundaries in and let people know why it is important to you. You have the right to decide how you are treated.

I've created a list of all the things I've done over the last 15 years that have reduced anxiety for myself and for the people I have worked with. I'll share one a day for the next 37 days.
