    How to define your own boundaries - Part 2

    In this episode of Open Hearts, we will continue talking about boundaries. We will look to identify in which spectrum do our current boundaries fall, are they too rigid, healthy or too loose, almost inexistent? The purpose is for us to build a healthy boundary system that can help us show up in our relationships in a more genuine way, to offer love and respect whilst we are also assertive about demanding the same in return. We will look at how having a better sense of one's self-identity will help us in the process of knowing what types of communication, behavior, and interaction are acceptable, according to our own set of values and belief systems. Here are some questions to help us identify in which spectrum our boundaries fall within: healthy/rigid/ loose: • Do you have a sense of what your boundaries are at this moment? • Do you know what kind of behaviours and communications are acceptable to you? • What are your limits? • Are you assertive about your needs? • Do you tend to put other people’s needs first? • Have you ever experienced burnout? • Do you find it easy or hard to say 'no' to others? • Are you sacrificing too much for others, or too little? • What kind of behaviours are you tolerating? • Are you engaging mostly in activities that bring you happiness? • Or are you engaging mostly in activities that are draining you? • Are you focusing on the good people in your life, that feel light and joyous? • Are you putting barriers between yourself and others? • Or are you giving out too much too soon?

    2020: a holistic review

    This is an episode where I will guide you through my yearly review method, prompting you with specific questions and riding through an inward journey through the past 365 days. I use a holistic approach that builds inwards to bloom outwards. The ultimate goal here is to reach a deeper understanding of your own self and how you navigated through this year bringing clarity to your mind in order to prepare for what is coming next. Questions mentioned during the podcast: - How do you feel today? Do you remember how you felt by the end of 2019? - How could you resume in a couple of words how 2020 felt to you? - What made you feel the most proud about it this year? - What disappointed you the most this year? - Which person did you wish you were there for? - Write down the 5 most important people that were part of your year? - How and what did they change or contributed to your year? - What was your biggest aspiration for 2020? - Did you have any plans laid out for 2020? Which ones? - How do you feel now about them? Have they been realised or not? - What is the link that you can observe in between what has been realised (or not) and your feelings about it? - If you did not achieved your goals, what stopped you from achieving them? Take your time, break it down step by step. - Was it a feeling like fear or not feeling enough? Or a material constraint? How did you overcome that or find an alternative to still getting closer to your goal? - During this year were there any skills, experiences, activities, subjects, discussions you wish you knew more about? - What have you done this year that made you feel your best self? - If there could be something you wish you knew what would it be?
