#holidayboundaries

The holidays are coming and boundaries might feel harder to set, but they're just as important. Here are some scripts you can use.

Reparenting yourself during the holidays can look like creating the experiences you needed as a kid, or letting go of traditions that never felt right in the first place. It's about giving yourself what you actually need now, not what you were told you should want. What does reparenting look like for you this season?

Here's the only holiday shopping list that actually matters. Everything else is just extra. Which one are you putting at the top of your list this season?

Practice boundaried language aloud, including time boundaries. “I’ll be staying for 1 hour.” Or, “I’m leaving at 6.” Revisit these phrases and rehearse your own. Hope this helps. Would love to hear your go-to boundaries below! ✨ [image text: Quick phrases to reestablish boundaries: 📌Please untag me from that. 📌I am not interested in going. 📌I already have something scheduled at that time (the something can be a nap or resting). 📌It’s best for me to exit this conversation. 📌I choose (blank) instead. 📌No. end image description] ✨ #boundaries #happyholidays #holidayboundaries #boundariesarehealthy #boundariesarebeautiful #traumarecovery #traumacare #sayingno #healthyboundaries #setboundaries #settingboundaries #selfcare #liberateyourself #familyboundaries #freedom #learningboundaries #takecontrol #takecontrolofyourlife #therapistsofinstagram #selflove #blacktherapist #blacktherapists #psychologist #psychologistsofinstagram #healingjourney #thehealingcollective #thehealingcollectiveAL #chooseyou #choosepeace #sethealthyboundaries https://www.instagram.com/p/CWqoYr8FdFf/?utm_medium=tumblr
