"Since launching the mega-bestselling wellness program the Whole30, Melissa Urban has taught millions of people how to establish healthy habits, and how to deal with pushback and peer pressure. Now, in The Book of Boundaries, Urban shows how we can all make our lives bigger, richer, and more fulfilling through the magic of boundaries. According to Urban, establishing boundaries--carefully evaluating how other people's behaviour impacts you, then clearly communicating and consistently enforcing limits around what you will and will not tolerate in response to those behaviours--is the key to better mental health, improved self-confidence, and more fulfilling relationships. She explains: - How to identify the signals that a boundary needs to be set - The minimum dose/maximum effect method - How to hold a boundary - What to do if people respond poorly - How to establish consequences if your needs are not respected. A no-holds-barred guide, written with warmth and humour, The Book of Boundaries shows how a few carefully selected words, spoken with kindness and from a place of self-care, are all that stands between you and feelings of calm, ease, confidence, and freedom."--Provided by publisher.
