1050-Mastering Healthy Relationship Boundaries

Definition of Boundaries Boundaries in relationships are like a house: you choose who enters and how far they can go. Just like a house has doors and windows, you decide who to let into your personal space (physically and emotionally). Types of Boundaries Physical Boundaries: Involves personal space, touch, and eye contact. Interpersonal Boundaries: Defines relationship expectations, such as time alone or together. Emotional & Cognitive Boundaries: You are entitled to your own feelings and thoughts, without needing validation from others. Environmental Boundaries: Pertains to personal belongings and who has access to them. Trust and Boundaries Trust develops gradually, and boundaries adjust accordingly, whether with your physical space, emotions, or belongings. The more trust you have in someone, the more you're likely to share deeper aspects of yourself. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
