Boundaries are Agreements

Boundaries are agreements.

Agreements with the body to listen and speak up for needs and desires. To allow that yes or no to move through the channels and be voiced through the throat.

Agreements with the heart to tend to and take care of our precious sensitivity and ability to love and trust.

Agreements with another to communicate where we’re at especially within ourselves and in relation to the relationship. Regardless of whether it’s intimate in nature, platonic, professional, etc.

Boundaries are the agreements we make, the standards we set, and the claims we declare.

We need not rope ourselves in as we bound all entry points to our humanness and shut the gates to keep others at bay.

This is a disconnected way to see and navigate what boundaries are and can be. It comes from a place of not feeling safe and not understanding what it is to truly connect. With ourselves. With another. With source consciousness and the collective world in which we live.

You see, just as humans have the capacity to listen, so too does the universe. Every little thing we utter.. yes, verbal and non-verbal — send ripples into the web of existence. Some with more weight than others.. but all have the capacity to be heard. And is. It’s just about the fullness of aligned truth behind it that adds the weight of movement.

It’s like it you send a single sheet of paper floating into the wind it will float a little aimlessly before settling to the ground in and wish/washy wave of simplicity. However, if you take time to craft that same single sheet of paper into a shape.. a little aerodynamic airplane for example.. or even a frustrated little ball.. the direction through which it moves holds a lot more power. Weight. Momentum.

It is, in a way. The intention we put into it. The attention. The thought, or even thoughtlessness yet still with energy.. increases its impact.

So — now we’ve brought the conversation of manifestation into the fold.

But we’re still also talking about boundaries.

In fact — what we’re really talking about spans so many varying topics that people tend to pick out and focus on and then forget how it fits into the whole… or rather than how it fits in… don’t really step back to understand from an embodied perspective what it is they’re actually trying to point to. And so, the message gets terribly convoluted through time and conversations. ..much like a game of telephone between a bunch of 7-year-olds.

You see.. boundaries are a part of a much larger picture. It’s more about our relationship with the world at large that allows us to refine and honor where our energy goes. It is given and received. What we say yes or no to.

And it’s with this understanding, that we get to shape and form our intentions and relationships to support the life we desire to build.

Are boundaries necessary? Yes — but so is the reframe.
