Healthy Boundaries in Recovery

Learn how to set boundaries that serve to both protect AND connect.

Our boundaries are based on our personal values and needs and they give us the space to express who we are as individuals and what is most important to us. Boundaries also provide personal guidelines for communicating clearly what is acceptable and unacceptable to us in our interactions with others. Healthy boundaries can help us to feel emotionally and physically safe, supported and respected. These boundaries that we set are a way of holding yourself accountable for creating the life you desire.

What to expect:

  • Interactive workshops to learn about healthy boundaries and steps to begin to set boundaries starting today!
  • You will learn practical tools to take home with you.
  • Time to journal with prompts to gain clarity.
  • The opportunity to connect with other people in recovery/impacted by addiction to share and learn together.
  • Gentle beginner yoga and breathing practices to learn ways to befriend your body and tap into your inner pharmacy for healing and stress reduction.
  • Guided meditation and Qi gong outdoors to partner with nature as our guide to learn ways to stay grounded and embody the five elements of nature as part of our healing path.
