Brene Brown, renowned Shame Researcher, has a wonderful boundary mantra: "say yes to discomfort and no to resentment".
In today's episode I am sharing my experience with the silent boundary method. This method was something I started about 5 years ago and it has worked miracles in my relationships, especially the one I have with myself.
To achieve the Silent Boundary Method, we need to normalise three things:
1) Saying no without justification and extra details
2) Creating space before giving an answer IE "I'll need to check some things and if it's a yes, I'll come back to you"
3) Letting the other person have their response - disappointment, anger, upset; without taking it on board ~ this is by far the hardest, but if we learn to accept and expect this, we won't see other people's response as proof that we can't set boundaries.
