Why are boundaries important?

Good boundaries are the key to having a great relationship with yourself, with others, and with reality.

Healthy boundaries make it possible for people to be connected and safe in relationships. Your boundaries teach others how to treat you and are the guidelines for how you value yourself.

Healthy boundaries protect your time, your energy, your relationships, and your health. Boundaries also protect you from becoming bitter or resentful of other people’s behavior.

By knowing your personal boundaries, you can relate to people from a place of calm.
