Parties and events stress me out big time. The next time someone asks me to help out during the event I WILL say no (I can help send out invites, etc., behind the scenes stuff, but running around during the party…uh uh).

Cheryl has some amazing concepts. I love her work!
I don’t have an absolute no list ready to go, but my absolute no is usually anything between work shifts that creates drama or takes away from my quality time with my children.

Love this concept. There are some thing I need to add to my no list. Sometimes saying now is hard, but it’s so important. Thank you for linking to this book.

xo,
Carmen

What a nice concept. What are your boundaries? Where do you draw the line? I would have to say my biggest one is “No Negatives” even in the worst of times. Those negative vibrations can bring people down and this is so destructive. I’ll have to think some more about other boundaries in my life. The no negatives is a big one for me.
I do like some of Guilietta’s and Suzie’s. There’s lot’s of food for tought in those!

Wow Jamie, that is extreme care for you! Good for you! I absolutely hate feeling rushed as well, that’s a big no-no for me. It’s how I get hurt, rushing around. My extreme self care? I don’t take calls in the morning or the evening. I will always sleep as much as I can. I never make appointments in the morning and only two a week tops. Not bad eh? I love this topic, so important for us to do this for ourselves.

Hi Jamie,

Boundaries is one of my favorite topics. Looks like a good read. Most angst is caused by us not speaking up for ourselves, to say either yes or no. On my absolute no list are

a) doing anything a doctor tells me to do that doesn’t make sense. For example, taking all that calcium. It didn’t make sense to me, so I investigated and am glad I did. I suggest other women do the same.

b) being obedient. this is really dangerous for one’s emotional health.

c) saving my life for “someday.” I subscribe to the philosophy of “somenow.” Do what you want now. Someday may never come. Somenow is already here.

thx, Giulietta, Inspirational Rebel
