Boundaries

A quick overview of boundaries with more coming in later posts.

Boundaries are like a bubble around ourselves. There are many types of boundaries. I will just explain the physical boundary for now because it is the simplest to see.

You can see your own boundary by watching what you do when someone gets too close to you. The point at which you backed up or looked down is your physical boundary. Physical boundaries protect us from being physically hurt by another person. Watch what another person does when you move into that person's space. Did he back up or look down? Was her space bigger or smaller then yours? The space that we give to the opposite sex tends to be wider then to the same sex. The space given for children is smaller and the space given for taller people is bigger.
