Let's Practice Saying...
Believe it or not, people don't always know what you need, they forget your preferences or assume more than you'd like. Practice being assertive as a way to improve communication in your relationships. #nedranuggets #setboundariesfindpeace #setboundaries #nedratawwab #healthyrelationship #healthyboundaries #boundaries #dramafree #healthyfamilies
Easing into the day instead of hurrying is self-care.
Self-care can be whatever you need to replenish and restore your mind, body, and spirit. #nedranuggets #nedratawwab #relationshipadvice #setboundaries #setboundariesfindpeace #healthyboundaries #healthyrelationships #therapistadvice #relationshipadvice #mentalhealth #therapist #selfcare
It might be hard...
Growth, healing, trying new things, or recovering is not easy, and it is possible. Your time frame may look different than others, and your journey will not be the same as anyone else’s. Take breaks, pause, and return to what will be best for you long-term. #nedranuggets #nedratawwab #setboundaries #setboundariesfindpeace #selfcare
People pleasing is self neglect...
{Self-acceptance is the cure to people-pleasing.} People-pleasing is rooted in not feeling like you're enough or you aren't worthy. It's okay to care what (some) people think. It's okay to have space for the other person's needs to be met in a relationship. It's not okay for you to neglect yourself to please others. {People-pleasing is self-neglect.} #setboundariesfindpeace #nedranuggets #nedratawwab #healthyrelationships #peoplepleasing #selfcare
It's okay to step back.
When you find it hard to maintain things the way they are, it's okay to step back. Friendships can transition from daily to occasional communication. #nedranuggets #nedratawwab #relationshipadvice #setboundaries #setboundariesfindpeace #healthyboundaries #healthyrelationships #mentalhealth #therapist #selfcare
Self-esteem is your interpretation of yourself.
If you struggle with unhealthy self-esteem, try talking to a therapist about the source of your issues or determine what situations trigger self-esteem issues. And always, practice being very kind to yourself, even when others are not. Remember, people mistreating you is NEVER your fault. #nedranuggets #nedratawwab #relationshipadvice #setboundaries #setboundariesfindpeace #healthyboundaries #healthyrelationships #therapistadvice #relationshipadvice #mentalhealth #therapist #selfcare

I knew I was growing when I started to be honest with myself. Looking at your old self and noticing how far you’ve come is an amazing way to continue evolving. How did you know that you were growing up? #nedranuggets

Some things are right, and some are wrong, but most things are gray, neither right nor wrong just choices to be made. Therefore, you have the opportunity to make a lot of decisions about what feels suitable for you. You can grant your permission to do or not do most things. #nedranuggets

Self-betrayal is engaging in behaviors and interactions that don't feel good to you. Pushing yourself to be in a relationship that doesn't feel good for you may impact your mental and emotional health. #nedranuggets #setboundariesfindpeace
