  This was recommended by a friend months ago, but none of my libraries had it so I had to "recommend" they purchase it. I tried
  Set Boundaries, Find Peace by the same author but it didn't resonate with me. So I was so happy when one of my libraries finally bought this book this week, and I read it through in a day. As the title states, this book has helpful, practical exercises while still offering insightful reminders on why boundaries are important and how to navigate relationships with friends, family members, partners, etc. (See my highlights for some of my favorites). Highly recommend.

  This book should be called "govern yourself accordingly". boundaries aren't always about telling people no, they are about caring for yourself. My absolute favorite sections are "gather yourself" where you have an opportunity to journal what came up for you in that chapter. Nedra helps us walk through guilt, discomfort, and how others respond to our boundary setting. Another great contribution!!

  Great as a companion to Set Boundaries Find Peace or as a way to get your foot in the boundary door. The subtitle is Practical Exercises for Understanding Your Needs and Setting Healthy Limits and if that doesn’t sum up this book, I don’t know what does. 😏
  
  This book is chock full of great info with prompts and space to reflect and personalize the info for your life, including encouragement to step away and take breaks as needed.
  
  Nedra is a must follow on Instagram, but having a book to access whenever wanted/needed is the cherry on top of her wise sundae.

  My thoughts: When I was reading Set Boundaries Find Peace I was saying it would be awesome with a workbook. This isn't exactly that. This is more like a follow-up to Set Boundaries Find Peace with homework. The author even suggests it can be read as a standalone book. It was fantastic but doesn’t go as deep on boundaries and their roots as the original book. I enjoyed the questions, exercises, and examples. I will be reading this book again since the ebook had a long waiting list so I didn't journal but I did some of the exercises, I mainly focused on the information, which was fat-trimmed meat, not the bare bones you usually get in a workbook. I was too lazy to write quotes. Next time.
  
  Recommend to others?: Yes! I highly recommend this book to others. It's almost like taking a class.

  Loved her main book. Didn’t feel the workbook was necessary or broke it down in smaller steps. Seemed too wordy

  This book couldn't have come into my hands at a more appropriate time. After getting my life incessantly invaded and betrayed by a Love-Bombing abuser that disguised herself as a friend, it became direly apparent that my boundaries were not as strong or well communicated as I thought.
  
  

  
  What is love bombing?
  Love bombing is a form of psychological and emotional abuse that involves a person going above and beyond for you in an effort to manipulate you into a relationship with them. It looks different for every person, but it usually involves some form of:
  
  • Excessive flattery and praise.
  • Over-communication of their feelings for you.
  • Showering you with unneeded/unwanted gifts.
  • Early and intense talks about your future together.
  
  Love bombing can happen intentionally or unintentionally. Although it’s most often recognized by romantic partners, your family members and friends can love bomb you, too. -Cleveland Clinic
  

  
  
  It's easier to say "No" or draw boundaries with those that present themselves as hostile, such as people who insult or belittle you, but I did not pay enough attention to how those that act overly friendly as a manipulation tactic are still abusers and invaders of boundaries, just in a sugar-coated way. Sure, Love Bombing often strokes one's ego and gives validation for love, but it's far more important to respect yourself and care for yourself by not letting Love Bombers manipulate control over your dependency on their "affection" . I found it difficult to say no or call out the Love Bomber in my life because it felt wrong to deny affection, and foolishly believed that friends have each other's best interest in mind. One thing this book teaches is to never outsource that expectation to others, ONLY YOU are responsible for and can protect your own best interest by creating strong boundaries . Sadly, a lot of times those that do overstep boundaries or use manipulation tactics like Love Bombing are not even conscious that they're being abusive. It's all in the cycle of being an unhealed individual.
  
  In addition, I had the naïve notion that maintaining altruism and compassion on my end was enough for healthy relationships, but now I realize by not being protective of my space, time, and energy, I am inviting chaos and malignant parasites to fester in my life. Drawing clear boundaries is actually more conducive to being kind more effectively as it allows you to attract others who are self-respecting and worthy of being in your life. Boundaries create space for positivity.
  
  Good luck to all who are learning to self-heal and set better boundaries!

  such a good resource for personal growth and learning how to set healthy boundaries - something i have absolutely been needing to work on and am currently doing so in and out of therapy!
  
  it's a valuable workbook to have with practical exercises that help with self-reflection and emotional exploration. i liked the structure and most of the exercises. it was easy to engage with the material actively and openly. however, i did find that some sections felt a bit repetitive, which made it challenging to stay fully engaged at times. additionally, certain topics touched on vulnerabilities that I found difficult to confront - which may be my problem LOL. though I recognize the importance of addressing these emotions for personal growth, it just sometimes felt overwhelming. but i get that it's important to address these things - but those i do privately and in therapy, so idk idk .
  
  about to read the book that goes hand in hand with this workbook. will update.

  Some parts were helpful for me, other parts not as much. It’s really good and teaching how to say no, but I think I was looking more for a book with ideas on what boundaries are generally helpful for most people to set because I’m not exactly sure what I need. But maybe there isn’t a book like that out there because we are all so different! 😆 I do like that it teaches that setting boundaries is kind and good for relationships to be healthy because sometimes I feel sinful or guilty for wanting/expressing boundaries.

  The Set Boundaries Workbook receives four stars from me. I enjoyed the second half of it more than the first. And I did most of the exercises. I think it did help me understand what boundaries are and how to express them. By the time it got to the relationship chapter, I had already approached the subject of my boundaries with my Plus 1. It's good stuff here.

  Good for working through the practical steps (and missteps) of setting and maintaining boundaries. I would suggest not trying to work through the whole thing in a few days/weeks. Take time to think through the work and apply individual chapters before moving on. It makes the book much more practical and useful, in my opinion.

  I listened to the audiobook which offered simple no nonsense wisdom in changing your life.
  Throughout it stayed on target while combing through aspects that might not have been dealt with personally. I feel relieved in knowing that prior decisions were right in line with the study.
  There’s so much work to do. Invest in yourself.

  Great workbook, with a lot of useful information on knowing what boundaries you need, and practice on how to set and keep them. I'll be revisiting this often to keep the knowledge in mind and keep practicing.

  I used this book as a resource for facilitating a group on healthy boundaries (I’m a therapist) and I highly recommend it. There are plenty of spaces to write out responses and a wide variety of types of boundaries and relationships.

  Best book I’ve found on boundaries to date; I especially love whole chapters dedicated to very specific topics. I’ll definitely be recommending this workbook to my psychotherapy clients.

  Content was useful, but author should not have narrated the audiobook of her text.

  It is a must read and fill out. Don’t skip unless it doesn’t involve something in your life. Maybe kids don’t work so thats fine. But the rest is much needed.
