Boundaries

Many people struggle with boundaries because they fear disappointing others, creating conflict, or appearing selfish. Yet healthy boundaries are not walls that separate us from life. They are one way we care for what matters. The Human Constitution explores our right to our time, energy, body, and well-being, and our responsibility to respect the boundaries of others. Through Istima, boundaries often become clearer as we learn from exhaustion, resentment, conflict, and experience.
