Read More »We all need boundaries. Boundaries keep us safe. Boundaries differentiate me from you. Boundaries help us focus on whats most important to us. And boundaries improve relationships by creating clear expectations and responsibilities. But it can be hard to figure out what boundaries you need to set. What boundaries do you need? One way to identify your boundaries is to think about the areas of your life where youre experiencing problems. Do you constantly feel exhausted? Do you feel uncomfortable around your coworker Kevin? Do you feel resentful of your mothers intrusions? Each of these problems is telling you that youre lacking boundaries in this area of your life. Ive identified seven common types of boundaries. Understanding each type can help you clarify the specific boundaries that you may need. 1) Physical Boundaries Physical boundaries protect your space and body, your right to not be touched, to have privacy, and to meet your physical needs such as resting or eating. They tell others how close they can get to you, what kind of physical touch (if any) is okay, how much privacy you need, and how to behave in your personal space. A physical boundary clearly defines that your body and personal space belong to you. Examples: When someone sits uncomfortably close to you, you move away or say, I need a little more personal space. We dont keep or consume alcohol at our house. 2) Sexual Boundaries Sexual boundaries protect your right to consent, to ask for what you like sexually, and to honesty about your partners sexual history. They define what kind of sexual touch and intimacy you want, how often, when, where, and with whom. Examples: Id like to be touched like this. Thuy has a personal policy of not having sex on the first date. 3) Emotional or Mental Boundaries Emotional or mental boundaries protect your right to have your own feelings and thoughts, to not have your feelings criticized or invalidated, and not have to take care of other people’s feelings. Emotional boundaries differentiate your feelings from other peoples, so youre accountable for your own feelings, but not responsible for how others feel. Emotional boundaries also allow us to create emotional safety by respecting each other’s feelings, not oversharing personal information thats inappropriate for the nature or level of closeness in the relationship. Examples: I dont feel comfortable discussing this. I feel embarrassed and powerless when you chastise me in front of our kids. Id like you to stop. 4) Spiritual or Religious Boundaries Spiritual boundaries protect your right to believe in what you want, worship as you wish, and practice your spiritual or religious beliefs. Examples: Im going to take a moment and say a silent prayer before we eat. Paul goes to church alone because his partner doesnt share his beliefs.

Examples: Im on a budget, so I brought my lunch from home and wont be ordering lunch today. Please dont borrow my car without asking. 6) Time Boundaries Time boundaries protect how you spend your time. They protect you from agreeing to do things you don’t want to do, having people waste your time, and being overworked. Examples: I reserve my evenings for family time. Ill respond to all work emails first thing in the morning. Dad, I dont have time to take you shopping this week. Ill place an order for you with the grocery delivery service.
