Busting the Lies of Unhealthy Boundaries

Shelly Tyler, DPT, OCS, FAAOMPT Season 2 Episode 2

Are unhealthy boundaries pointing to the root of your health issues?

Listen as Lauren Early, MA, LPCC and I unpack the myths (“lies”) around boundaries and the truth that God tells us about them in our lives. 

Lie #1: 

Jesus gave of Himself sacrificially, therefore I’m also supposed to give my resources, time, and energy without restraint.


Lie #2:  I am supposed to love everyone, so I can’t confront or acknowledge a boundary issue.


Lie #3: I have to forgive, which means allowing this person “in” again.


Let’s look at how Jesus modeled boundaries and take steps together towards caring and serving for one another in a safe, emotionally connected way. 


“A boundary-less life becomes a hurried life. 

A hurried life becomes a stressed-out life. 

A stressed-out life squeezes everything of importance out AND it begins to change and affect our nervous system and ultimately our health. 

An unhealthy life leads to one that cannot pursue the God-given dreams that God has put inside of you.”
