Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. This is excellent, and I particularly love that it is short and to the point. Lots of helpful ideas in here. Lots of things to think about. Lots of exercises to help you think about the things. And a very excellently irreverant writing style to keep it as light as it can be. Also, I love the praise for bravery and badassery for engaging on these topics. Much love. ( ) Great book for learning to have good boundaries yourself. Another reviewer said it is solely for those with trauma. This is incorrect. This book is good for everyone who needs to work on having boundaries, and everyone needs to work on boundaries. What are boundaries? Boundaries are those lines you do not want people (sometimes including yourself) to cross. The subtitle sounds as though the material might be relevant to everyday relationships where you might need to stick to your guns a little more. Not so much. It's mostly about abuse, trauma, and seriously dysfunctional behavior, and presents a very casual take on a weighty subject. Might be useful for some to open the door to getting help. Not the book I was looking for, however. no reviews | add a review

Boundaries are the ways we communicate our needs. They are what allow us to feel safe among strangers, in everyday interactions, and in our closest relationships. When we have healthy boundaries, we have a strong foundation in an uncertain world. And when someone crosses your boundaries, or you cross someone else's, the results range from unsettling to catastrophic. In this book, bestselling author Dr. Faith Harper offers a full understanding of issues of boundaries and consent, how we can communicate and listen more effectively, and how to survive and move on from situations where our boundaries are violated. Along the way, you'll learn when and how to effectively say "no" (and "yes"), troubleshoot conflict, recognize abuse, and respect your own and others' boundaries like a pro. You'll be amazed at how much these skills improve your relationships with friends, strangers, coworkers, and loved ones. No library descriptions found. |
