Boundaries express our self-esteem, self-worth, and perceptions of who we are concerning others. They define where we end and where the other begins. Knowledge and clarity regarding our boundaries help us connect with ourselves as individuals and create healthy relationships that are not emotionally entangled negatively.
In this workshop, we directly experience our boundaries and look at the critical issues regarding setting boundaries and assertively expressing our reality. We see the reflections of broken boundaries in the relationship and how to transform this gap through experiential inquiry and somatic healing.
The work is mainly based on the Learning Love model. Guided meditations, experiential exercises, teachings, Somatic Experiencing, self-compassion and Mindfulness are used.
Miasto and the three daily meditations are a container for this journey towards a conscious relationship with ourselves and others.
WHO IS IT ADDRESSED TO?
It is a course aimed at everyone, and specifically for those who feel they have lost power over their own space, time and self-perception
WHY PARTICIPATE
Boundary work helps us learn to recognize our needs and express them assertively. It allows the healing of the co-dependent person, with toxic shame, incapable of making decisions, with little contact with himself and his truth. When there is no clarity about our boundaries and who we are, our mind is focused on the other, on pleasing and making the other happy, and on adapting to situations without realizing the loss of power and disconnection over our needs and desires. When we say yes, but we would like to say no and don’t allow ourselves to or when the rigidity of boundaries does not allow connection and exchange in relationships because we are overwhelmed by fear, suspicion and insecurity.
WHAT IT GIVES YOU
This work mainly improves self-esteem, allows contact with our real self-efficacy, helps reconnect with personal power, and improves friendship, love, and work relationships.
It increases our agency and the ability to recognize ourselves as agents of our actions, moving us from identifying as the victim to a person capable of acting autonomously. It implements the ability to take care of oneself. Finally, it ends that sense of resentment, anger, impotence, and disappointment that we perceive when our boundaries are not respected. And, like a domino, this stops compensatory behaviours (complacency, aggression, isolation), addictive behaviours (food, substances of abuse, pornography, compulsive shopping, etc.) and work-related submission.
