#85 Guard Your Space

Today, remind yourself that protecting your personal space is an act of self-respect.

I step away from people that don’t respect my boundaries.

This affirmation is a powerful declaration of self-care. It reminds you that setting boundaries is essential to maintaining your well-being and that it's perfectly okay to distance yourself from negativity or toxicity.

When you honor your own limits, you invite healthier, more supportive relationships into your life.

For example, if someone consistently ignores your needs or disrespects your time, consider politely stepping back and reassessing how you engage with that person.

This might mean saying no to certain commitments or reducing contact until mutual respect is reestablished.

Over time, these choices help you cultivate an environment where your energy is valued and nurtured.
