5 Signs of Healthy Boundaries

Let’s face it, sometimes boundaries don’t feel good. They can be downright uncomfortable and awkward. However, that doesn’t mean that they aren’t needed. 
 
So, let’s take a look at five signs of healthy boundaries. 
 
First, your relationships don’t suck. When you have healthy relationships, the relationships are not filled with strife and resentment because each party has set boundaries to make sure their needs are taken care and they feel respected and honored in the relationship. They speak their truth and when strife does occur, they share about it before it festers and comes out sideways. 
 
Second, you feel empowered to speak your truth, even if it may upset others. You aren’t malicious about it but you are assertive in setting boundaries to protect yourself because you know you are taking action to protect yourself, not be manipulate or control others. Your focused on keeping your side of the street clean but not trying to jump on anyone else’s side. 
 
Third, your boundaries stem from self-love. You love yourself and so you want to show up well in your life and in your relationships and that is demonstrated in your boundaries. Each boundary you set is a reflection of how you view your worth and value as well as your desire to be healthy. You set boundaries to grow and develop into the person you want to be and have the relationships you want to have. 
 
Fourth, you have moderation and balance in your life. When you set healthy boundaries, you do not take on too much, your no means no and you take time for self-care. You are not overextended, overwhelmed or overworked. You take time to refuel yourself, practice self-care and feel at peace when you say no because you know that you were doing what you needed to do. 
 
Fifth, you have more energy. When you set and maintain healthy boundaries, you have energy for what is important and do not take on what is not important. You have the mental capacity to focus on priorities and are not distracted by things that are not in line with your priorities and values.
