Summary: Where could I find full video for this course?
Comment: This video is a little bit short than I want.
Since I learn it by myself, do you have the full length time for this course?

Summary: I didn't think I had "boundary" issues...
Comment: I didn't think I had "boundary" issues when my coach recommended that I read this book. I am not a push-over person, but a very goal oriented, driven individual. In fact, when I read the first chapter of "Boundaries", I thought the person described was definitely not like me! It took the help of an excellent coach, using this book, to help me uncover the truth about myself.
Since I was so "strong" I tried to carry others burdens that were not meant for me to carry. I hated asking for help. My expectation of my husband was low, and he continually re-affirmed what I was expecting.
With the help of "Boundaries" I learned to set aside time for myself, to be emotionally honest with myself and others. I realized that like Sherri (in chapter 1), my validation of others feelings and my appeasement to prevent confrontation was causing me to deny myself and thus live a lie. I am learning to better guard my heart and carry my own load with the help found in this book.
I highly recommend it.

Summary: Empowering
Comment: This book is great for those of us who do not know how to set boundaries with others in our lives. It is empowering to know you have the right (and obligation) to control your own life. Stop blaming others, stop being filled with guilt, take back your life.

Summary: this book saved my life, literally
Comment: When I read it, I was just a few steps away from an emotional breakdown. My boundaries were so pour, so porous, that I was completely bankrupt of emotional resources, down to 100 pounds (from a healthy weight of 125), couldn't sleep, couldn't eat & was struggling with active suicidal ideation. The book helped me see where I was off - and gave me a road map how to regain myself. It was neither easy nor quick. It took about two years and a support group of caring connections - friends and family who were able to reach out, encourage & stabalize me as I learned this new way of doing life. But in the process, I saved my marriage, was there for my kids & even helped them to learn healthy boundaries so hopefully they will be able to avoid the same mistakes I made.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks those things for which we are responsible. In other words, boundaries define who we are and who we are not. Boundaries impact all areas of our lives: Physical boundaries help us determine who may touch us, mental boundaries give us the freedom to have our own thoughts, emotional boundaries help us to deal with our own emotions and spiritual boundaries help us to distinguish God's will from our own.
