The purpose of setting boundaries is to prevent harm to yourself and others. Boundaries are about knowing yourself and teaching others about you. You must ask yourself:

What will you welcome into your space?
What are you willing to work with?
What will you not allow?
Every individual has different values and capacities. A large part of knowing your boundaries is about knowing yourself. In this video, Yvette Erasmus describes how and why exquisite self-care requires exquisite boundaries.
