Boundaries

Since my introduction to Somatic Experiencing about a year and a half ago, it’s been beautiful, brilliant and brutal. Yet so necessary.  And so life changing. Capacity is now one of my favourite words. 


What I want to talk about today is how capacity has led me to the wonderful world of boundaries. What are boundaries? Why do I need boundaries? How do I begin to explore and bring boundaries into my life? Tenuous first steps for me were simply saying, “No!”  


Scary and empowering at the same time. And it’s gotten easier the more I say No and realize the sky will not fall. Oh my!  


Now, it’s using my voice to say more than no.  This feels very big right now while at the same time, I know it’s time. Trusting my inner guidance and my sweet universe. We are doing this! 


Stay tuned…

Safe To Be Me

 

Today I sat myself down, looked myself in the eye and said, "It's time to stop the bullshit." Stop second guessing yourself. 
Stop going over what I did, how I conducted myself, berating myself for choices I made an hour ago, or this morning, or five minutes ago. 
I choose in this moment to live freely.
I give myself grace for the choices I make.
