Description
The instant New York Times bestseller
End the struggle, speak up for what you need, and experience the freedom of being truly yourself.
Healthy boundaries. We all know we should have them--in order to achieve work/life balance, cope with toxic people, and enjoy rewarding relationships with partners, friends, and family. But what do "healthy boundaries" really mean--and how can we successfully express our needs, say "no," and be assertive without offending others?
Licensed counselor, sought-after relationship expert, and one of the most influential therapists on Instagram Nedra Glover Tawwab demystifies this complex topic for today's world. In a relatable and inclusive tone, Set Boundaries, Find Peace presents simple-yet-powerful ways to establish healthy boundaries in all aspects of life. Rooted in the latest research and best practices used in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), these techniques help us identify and express our needs clearly and without apology--and unravel a root problem behind codependency, power struggles, anxiety, depression, burnout, and more.

This Book Helped More Than 5 Years of Therapy
5By BosshaeSo much validation in a single book. It’s as if she wrote this specifically for me and it’s saying to me “you weren’t crazy for asking for what you needed” “you weren’t crazy for not being okay with what they did” “you weren’t crazy for not being okay with how you were treated” A huge mental game changer and because of this book, I know my future relationship experiences will be better than all those crappy ones in my past! 🫶🏽Amazing!

5By RosemercGreat book, so easy to read. I like the examples and the sugestions the author madeBoundaries Are The Key To Healthy Relationships
5By trey.codesBefore I read this book, I’ve always felt like I was a passenger to my own life, and someone else was driving the car. A people pleaser in every sense of the word. Saying yes to everything my past girlfriends wanted, not wanting to disappoint family with certain decisions, or even wanting to be accepted by people who weren’t even benefiting me. I now see the importance of speaking up about what you’re comfortable and not comfortable doing. The proper boundaries are how you establish the relationships that are true and beneficial for you, because if someone doesn’t respect your boundaries, you don’t need a relationship with them to begin with. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has anxiety or depression also.Clarity
5By steve10002This book provided me with a lot of clarity about feelings of guilt when saying no to people. Also, that it’s okay to set and repeat your boundaries with people. This is the “two things can be true” rule everyone is talking about for me. However, you need to make one thing clear to people. Loved this book beyond words.Absolutely amazing!
