How are you protecting yourself?

Self protection is one of the, if not the, most important things you can do when learning how to be a confident, self-assured person who is comfortable in her/his own skin. Removing negativity and those who spread it is essential to becoming aligned and whole within.

Something I had to do first was to work on my inner circle and setting boundaries as to who was allowed into my circle. This can be really difficult to do when those boundaries are established for friends and family. However, if you truly want to gain inner peace and wholeness it’s a step worth taking- I don’t think there is a way around it to be honest. This might look like just limiting what you share to cutting off contact completely. For me it has been both. Because we can only control our behavior limited contact is sometimes necessary. For those people you don’t want to cut off contact completely with, a less drastic measure can be taken. For me in one situation this meant not allowing myself to become drawn into a false sense of security, knowing what I said in private wasn’t going to stay private.

After setting boundaries between yourself and others you’ll find it’s much easier to begin training yourself to put your mental wellness first. For me finding a group of coaches and mentors has helped this process so much. I’ve learned so many techniques while getting my certification through Yes Supply and connecting with positive, enriched individuals. The tools I’ve gained from working with a trained coach are priceless. Through NLP I am gaining a wealth of knowledge I never even knew existed. You don’t have to feel like you have no control, like you aren’t awesome, like you don’t matter or have worth.

How are you today going to start protecting you? Are you done letting others decide how you feel? What would boundaries look like? Is your inner circle filled only with those that love you and want the best for you?
