Boundary Work

Welcome.
Let's take a few breaths.

Today's session is about you, your needs and priorities.

It's also an experiment,
a reflection space, a mirror in the making.

If boundaries are the agenda, what's the destination?

In my dreams, ...

we'll arrive at some clarity.

we'll develop some strategies.

we'll build what we need,

and possibly discover the unexpected.

Think of a positive example of boundaries being applied.

What made it positive?

I'm going to lead us through a process.

We'll zoom out to get perspective, ...

Then zoom back in to decide what to adjust.

Think of a situation.

Individual,
system, or
the universe?

What/Who are the elements?

How do these elements stand in relation to each other?

Sketch it, diagram it.
Show what you see.

Pause. Observe.

What do you notice?

Where are you?

Where do you want/need to be?

Where are boundaries visible or active?

How do the boundaries you see serve you?

Pause. Observe.

It's you

Adjustments? Where?

What's different?

What are the boundaries telling you, telling others?

Breathe.

What is your #BoundaryWork?

Who can support you?

What form of support might you need?

And next time...
