Have you noticed? Scroll through social media and it seems that everyone is talking about boundaries and mental health.
What are Boundaries?
Boundaries are limits you set in place to safeguard your mental, physical and emotional well being.
They define what is and isn’t ok with you and gives everyone ground rules to operate within.
Setting boundaries is an essential part of everyone’s mental health.
Our Boundaries Program
Eagles Nest knows just how important healthy boundaries are. For over 20 years we have been offering a Boundaries program for people to explore and implement boundaries. In fact, it is one of our most popular programs.
Boundaries Make an Impact
Talia* came to our Boundaries program and shared,
“Truly and honestly, I’m not one to reach out for myself but I had to go to the doctor for a check up. A year postpartum from my second child, the doctor asked how I was doing and I started crying. I went to a therapist and after I spoke to the therapist, she suggested (the) Boundaries (program).
I didn’t understand the push back from people… I didn’t realize how much it was affecting me. I was getting sick all the time, exhausted, sinking into a depression. I didn’t think it was ok to say no to anyone, ever.”
Many people used to say I was happy. I didn’t think so but now I am happy. I am living genuinely and authentically now.”
In the coming weeks, we will be sharing more of Talia’s story and what a difference boundaries made in her life.
Mental health matters. Because of the generosity of our supporters, we are able to offer affordable mental health programs and services, including the Boundaries program, to our community.
