Boundary Affirmations: Reframe your mindset with powerful intentions: "I am the guardian of my own energy" and "I can say no without guilt." The Log Cabin Visualization: Learn to observe the "winter storms" of life—job stress and expectations—through a window of detachment rather than being swept away by them. 3 Caring Tips for Daily Boundary Setting: The One-Minute Wait: Before committing to new requests, take 60 seconds to check your actual energy capacity.
