Boundaries Guided Meditation

By Holly Madden

This guided provides a gentle mindfulness practice on embracing your boundaries and honoring your need to protect your boundaries.

Trauma Training Takeaways: This practice is designed to center you personally to the present and to your own body. Like any mindfulness or meditative practice, be gentle with yourself if you find yourself feeling triggered or are processing through trauma impact on your body or mind. If you are using any of these techniques with someone in your world, be aware that the activity of slowing down and being still can bring repressed trauma to the service. Be sensitive to trauma responses. As always, mindfulness, grounding, and meditation is never a replacement fo therapy, and pursuing help with a licensed practitioner should always be encouraged and supported.

For some, the struggle with boundaries is embedded in past trauma in which consent was not taught and/or not respected. The invasion of boundaries can lead to a lifelong struggle to set and value personal boundaries.
