Building Better Boundaries: Why It’s Hard To Say No

Building Better Boundaries - why its hard to say no. For so many of us, helping others feels as natural as breathing. Part of us just wants to help – it matters that the other person is ok and feels happy. Or another part of us might be worried what will happen if we say no - they might get upset, freeze us out or blame us. So we keep saying yes, over and over, until we feel angry. But anger is our nervous system’s way of telling us something is wrong.
