What Are Relationship Boundaries?
Most people think of boundaries as setting limits and saying "no". That is only part of the picture. If you want to truly understand boundaries and relationships, use our articles and CDs. You will discover the Six Boundary Problems Styles, the Six Boundary Solution Styles and a lot more.

Why Do I Keep Getting Used?
There are some predictable relationship dances that, until you unweave them, direct how you behave with others. Do you care too much and end up getting used? Read The Dance of Drama. Do you let others run the show because you're afraid of rejection or abandonment? Read The Push Me Pull You Dance. Learn how to create the type of relationships you really want.

What people say after learning the Boundaries: Solutions for Life Approach: "Now I’ve stopped feeling guilty about taking charge of being me!" -C .Creane LMT “I value myself more” -Les Bell, Everett, WA "I think of myself as a communicator; however I was historically unable to clearly express what I need and wanted from others.  I had no idea why I kept hitting the same brick wall or how to stop.  Now I know why and how.”             -Holly Byerly, Seattle, Washington "I was afraid you were advocating ‘fences’ around ourselves (this is what I understood ‘boundaries’ to be).  I do not believe life can be successfully survived – even with very good fences.  I believe life can only be successfully engaged – fully and with gusto.  And I was finding myself stopped – playing half hearted, without zest, or erecting my own fences.  Your boundaries workshop opens up for me some intriguing new possibilities for me; and gives me some great new tools to use in my relationship building commitment.  You are showing me that ‘boundaries’ are our borders – it is my choice whether, when and how to fence them or to plant them with inviting gardens.” -Patrick Dwyer, Parent Attorney,  Lynnwood, WA Are you the kind of person who likes lots of testimonials?  Great! Click Here  to read more stories from  people who changed their lives using the boundaries methods.

When you learn to use boundaries with Boundaries: Solutions for Life, you will have less stress and more free time. You will enjoy increased confidence and effectiveness with dealing with others. 


Giving Is Caring
Many people give in a way that drains them. They over give and get tired or resentful. They give to people, who in reality, don't really want to change. In the end, this rescuing behaviour usually perpetuates other people's victim roles. Click here to learn how to stop this.

With healthy boundaries, when you give, instead being codependent, you help others become stronger and more confident in themselves. Your relationships are built on mutual trust, love and respect, instead of neediness.

People find the healthier their boundaries are, the more they have available to give in a way that really makes a difference. Here is a link to one of our past charity events at Boundaries: Solutions for Life to share what change one group of people with healthy boundaries, can do. Wow, did we have fun!
