In my own family there was</p><p>no clear boundaries in thinking differently, in behaviour, and rescuing system</p><p>to keep you in the same system as before. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>An</p><p>example of this could be in a cult, where having no boundaries around sexual</p><p>intimacy, only one way of thinking, not being allow to explore knowledge in</p><p>throughout the universe. You are told the world is flat than you have to</p><p>believe it is flat. Religious organizations can have a set of beliefs and</p><p>values that can separate you from the rest of society.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>In</p><p>addition to boundaries that have already been mentioned, here are some other boundaries</p><p>that are common in relationships:</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>1.</strong></p><p><strong>Intimacy</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Have</p><p>an honest discussion around sexual intimacy.</p><p><br></p><p>Both</p><p>you and your partner should be able to express your:</p><p><br></p><p>•&nbsp; thoughts</p><p><br></p><p>•&nbsp; beliefs</p><p><br></p><p>•&nbsp; and boundaries regarding sexual expression in</p><p>the relationship.</p><p><br></p><p>It</p><p>might feel awkward, but press through. Understanding each other’s preferences,</p><p>beliefs, and expectations can help your relationship thrive and leave less room</p><p>for resentment, confusion, or other negative emotions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>2.</strong></p><p><strong>Finances</strong></p><p><br></p><p>Discussions</p><p>about finances are important in a relationship. Those that ignore this topic</p><p>tend to run into problems down the road.</p><p>Discuss</p><p>your thoughts, expectations, and boundaries around money. If you don’t see eye</p><p>to eye, work at a compromise that suits both of you.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><strong>3.</strong></p><p><strong>Past relationships</strong></p><p><br></p><p>If</p><p>anyone is badgering the other with questions of past relationships, that’s overstepping</p><p>a boundary.</p><p>You</p><p>have every right to let your past stay in the past and so does your partner. Course,</p><p>you’re free to share what you want, but when you feel assaulted with questions,</p><p>it’s time to draw your line in the sand and say, “That’s not something I’m</p><p>comfortable sharing with you.”</p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>4.</strong></p><p><strong>Loved ones</strong></p><p><br></p><p>It</p><p>helps to set some boundaries around those outsides of your relationship, such as</p><p>friends and family.</p><p>Have</p><p>a discussion about what you both want in terms of visiting hours, family</p><p>interaction time, and how friendships come into play. Outside influences, such</p><p>as in-laws or adult children can be a blessing or a curse depending on various</p><p>factors. Determine what you’ll allow in your relationship in a way where you</p><p>and your partner are respected.</p><p><strong>5.</strong></p><p><strong>Social media &amp; technology</strong></p><p><br></p><p>If</p><p>you’re the kind of person that doesn’t care if your partner gets on your social</p><p>media, that’s great.</p><p>But</p><p>if you like your privacy, you have every right to say, “hands off”. Talk about what</p><p>you desire and see what your partner desires when it comes to social media and technology.</p><p>If</p><p>you want your mobile phone, iPad, computer off limits to your partner, it’s alright</p><p>for you to say so. This doesn’t mean you are hiding something. It means you</p><p>enjoy your freedom when it comes to your things. And, vice versa if your partner</p><p>tells you this.</p><p><strong>6.</strong></p><p><strong>Respect –</strong></p><p><br></p><p>The</p><p>6 Most Common Boundaries You Should Know &amp; Set in Your Relationships... </p><p><br></p><p>Every</p><p>relationship ought to draw the boundary line of respect. This means not</p><p>allowing name calling or any type of abuse. You deserve respect and so does</p><p>your partner. If you’re not getting it, shore up your boundary line with a</p><p>serious conversation.</p><p>The</p><p>5 Love Languages &amp; How They Can Help You Have a Healthier Relationship</p><p><br></p><p>Boundaries</p><p>Enhance Relationships</p><p><br></p><p>They</p><p>take shady areas out of the grey into clear and transparency. If boundaries are</p><p>lacking, there may be confusion, anger, jealousy, or a host of other negative emotions.</p><p>&nbsp;So, think more about what boundaries you</p><p>have in your relationship, and ones you’d like to set. Then, have a warm</p><p>discussion around them with your partner. Your relationship will be better for</p><p>it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Boundaries</p><p>and Energy </p><p><br></p><p>When</p><p>we have no boundaries or they are weak, it is very easy for us to become</p><p>entangled in other peoples’ issues. We find ourselves emotionally, mentally,</p><p>and physically drained. We may feel we are in a brain fog, tired, not sleeping</p><p>very well at night, playing scenarios over and over in our brain, we could even</p><p>become more frustrated with the situation and wondering why the person will not</p><p>change. The solution(s) is right in front of them.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>A</p><p>couple of years ago my sister wanted to go to an Alon meeting and asked me if I</p><p>would go with her. I said, “I would be there to support her.” Unfortunately,</p><p>she was not ready to recognize she had issues with her husband’s drinking. For</p><p>a couple years she would phone me and talk about her husband’s drinking.</p><p>Sometimes she would come over for the weekend with her three daughters. My own</p><p>boundaries were weak at the time, and I got caught up in her issues. I would</p><p>give her solutions to solve her issues. It became emotionally and mentally</p><p>draining on my energy. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>I</p><p>realized the only problems that I could solve were my own. As for my sister and</p><p>her husband, I realized they were the only ones that could solve their</p><p>problems. This is not a happy ever after ending for them or me. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Through</p><p>understanding energy medicine, I always make sure I have an energy bubble</p><p>around me.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>What</p><p>is an energy bubble? An energy bubble helps to shield your energy from people</p><p>in your life who may be draining your energy or sending negative vibrations</p><p>your way, consciously or&nbsp;subconsciously.</p><p>I</p><p>have an energy bubble around me everyday as you never know when you are around</p><p>come across people energy who try to take your energy. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p>Try</p><p>this visualization: </p><p><br></p><p>First,</p><p>Call the Universe light send healing energy and protection. Allow this white light</p><p>surround you.&nbsp; Visualize that the</p><p>bubble’s boundary only allows love, positivity, and healing energy to enter.</p><p>Visualize any negative and unwanted energy bouncing off of the bubble.</p><p>Next, Call the Universe light to enfold you with</p><p>unconditional love.</p><p>Finally, call the Universe Light to infuse you with</p><p>strength, understanding, forgiveness, and trust.\</p><p>Boundaries</p><p>keep us safe and healthy. It assists us to become our authentic self. </p>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://youve-got-the-power.captivate.fm]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">2b093a88-b3c5-4ae6-889b-ea82ac89c855</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/3db5618d-b26a-4977-adc6-5c91ac0193bb/my-W0g9c9PG-meTPcDpDoK97.jpg"/><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jo-Anne Kobylka]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 09 Oct 2024 04:00:00 -0400</pubDate><enclosure url="https://podcasts.captivate.fm/media/e3558941-bc4e-44fb-b1a7-21a6feb68ec5/Why-you-set-boundaries-for-yourself-converted.mp3" length="14331018" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>14:56</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><itunes:episode>8</itunes:episode><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><podcast:episode>8</podcast:episode><podcast:season>1</podcast:season><itunes:author>Jo-Anne Kobylka</itunes:author></item><item><title>Ways to Help You Release Sorrow and Grief</title><itunes:title>Ways to Help You Release Sorrow and Grief</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p class="ql-align-justify">Good day, today’s podcast is</p><p class="ql-align-justify">“Ways to Help You Release Sorrow and Grief.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">I have been a United Church of</p><p class="ql-align-justify">Canada Minister for over 35 years and I have ministry in many churches.

At other times, it may feel</p><p class="ql-align-justify">heavy, like a crushing weight you can’t quite crawl out from under. Many of us</p><p class="ql-align-justify">have been taught not to cry in north American culture especially males as it is</p><p class="ql-align-justify">a sign of weakness. </p><p class="ql-align-justify">In fact, processing grief can take significant time and</p><p class="ql-align-justify">various rituals. Some even say we don’t actually process grief but merely get</p><p class="ql-align-justify">used to it. However, we can practice ways to let go and accept our emotions. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Whether you’ve lost a loved one or are facing the end of a</p><p class="ql-align-justify">relationship, the hurt exists.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">It’s real. For some time, we may feel as though we need to</p><p class="ql-align-justify">hold onto it for fear of more loss and hurt. So, when you’re ready to let go</p><p class="ql-align-justify">and move forward, use the following ways to release sorrow and grief, making</p><p class="ql-align-justify">room for new and happier emotions to enter your life once again.</p><p class="ql-align-justify">We</p><p class="ql-align-justify">carry grief and sorrow within our energy fields and our bodies. The two place</p><p class="ql-align-justify">of sadness is carried in the heart chakra or top part of the breast bone.</p><p class="ql-align-justify">Another area where emotions of grief and sadness is in our abdominal area.</p><p class="ql-align-justify">Stomach aches, loss of appetite, lungs (grief), upper back and heart, chest and</p><p class="ql-align-justify">the throat. Trapped emotions can cause many sensations in the body. For</p><p class="ql-align-justify">difficult emotions, this could include:</p><p class="ql-align-justify">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify">muscle tension or tightness</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify">a feeling of heaviness or tiredness</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify">a “lump” or choking sensation in the throat </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify">aching or pain</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify">nausea or “knots” in the stomach</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Here are some practical methods</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>to try in assisting you in your grief and sadness.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">&nbsp;</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>1.&nbsp;</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Write a</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Letter.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">This could be to your ex or to the one who is gone. This can</p><p class="ql-align-justify">offer a safe and private space to pour out your emotions. Take your time. Write</p><p class="ql-align-justify">anything that comes to mind, whether that includes regrets or the unknown of</p><p class="ql-align-justify">how to move forward without them. </p><p class="ql-align-justify">You can even use this space to write what you appreciated</p><p class="ql-align-justify">about them being in your life, leaning into a bit of positivity if it feels</p><p class="ql-align-justify">right. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>2. Bury It (Literally, Not Figuratively).</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Okay, this may feel a little “woo-woo.” Yet, this practice</p><p class="ql-align-justify">offers a symbolic way to let go.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; Grab an item or your</p><p class="ql-align-justify">letter.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; Find a place amongst</p><p class="ql-align-justify">nature.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; Now, dig a small but</p><p class="ql-align-justify">shallow hole in the ground.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; Place your item or</p><p class="ql-align-justify">letter (just make sure it’s environmentally friendly) in the hole.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Here, you can choose to say a few words, such as, “I’ve</p><p class="ql-align-justify">carried this weight for too long and am ready to let it go. I’m ready to allow</p><p class="ql-align-justify">Mother Nature to use this energy for growth.”</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Then, either burn the item (if this is allowed and safe!). Or</p><p class="ql-align-justify">bury it. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>3. Give Yourself Permission to Feel.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Many of us try to fight our emotions, especially when they</p><p class="ql-align-justify">are negative.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">What if this time, you gave yourself permission to feel it?</p><p class="ql-align-justify">What if you allowed yourself to cry until you couldn’t anymore? </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Surprisingly, this can be very cleansing, offering some</p><p class="ql-align-justify">release and some reprieve from the heavy weight of loss and grief you might be</p><p class="ql-align-justify">feeling. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Providing yourself with some compassion and letting yourself</p><p class="ql-align-justify">feel the emotions so you can heal them may offer you a path forward and a way</p><p class="ql-align-justify">to move on.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>4. Be Patient.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Time is your friend here. While we can’t change the past, we</p><p class="ql-align-justify">can learn to that as time goes on, we may feel better and that practicing</p><p class="ql-align-justify">patience with ourselves is the best way to go. Pain can be healthy. And healthy</p><p class="ql-align-justify">pain means allowing the emotions to come up as time goes on and not suppressing</p><p class="ql-align-justify">them.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>5. Say Goodbye.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Whether you had a chance or not, maybe closure wasn’t there.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Or perhaps the time didn’t allow for a proper farewell. Or</p><p class="ql-align-justify">maybe you just wanted more time; so much was left unsaid. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">While funerals offer a public place to say goodbye, you can</p><p class="ql-align-justify">also do it in your own time. Writing a letter, as per the above, can be very</p><p class="ql-align-justify">healing. Additionally, just spending time talking to the person from your heart</p><p class="ql-align-justify">when you’re alone can be very healing. </p><p class="ql-align-justify">Imagine them standing in front of you.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; What would you say?</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; What are you wanting</p><p class="ql-align-justify">them to know?</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">•&nbsp; What would make you</p><p class="ql-align-justify">feel even slightly better being able to express to them? </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">While you do this, you may want to light a candle or incense,</p><p class="ql-align-justify">making it a more formal and personal farewell. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>6. Create a Memory Box.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">This provides somewhere you can go when you’re really missing</p><p class="ql-align-justify">your loved one.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">A memory box might include a simple shoebox filled with small</p><p class="ql-align-justify">items that are sentimental to you or remind you of them. This can help you feel</p><p class="ql-align-justify">closer to them when you’re struggling. It can provide space for you to talk</p><p class="ql-align-justify">with them still, even though they aren’t there. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>7. Plant Something in Their Honor.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">Seriously! Where there has been loss, give life.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">This might mean planting a new tree or annual plant to</p><p class="ql-align-justify">signify the circle of life and honor the one lost. It can also provide a place</p><p class="ql-align-justify">where you can visit and think about your memories together. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>8.</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify">I honor both my parents on special occasions, such as: birthdays and</p><p class="ql-align-justify">anniversary, Christmas and Easter, Mother’s and Father’s Day. There are times</p><p class="ql-align-justify">we even set a place for them at the table, knowing that their spirit is</p><p class="ql-align-justify">welcome. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><br><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><br><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Here are some Re-Energizing Technique you can do: </strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">I often place my hands just above my breast and softly rub in</p><p class="ql-align-justify">a clockwise direction. I think of my friends, family members that have died and</p><p class="ql-align-justify">the flood of joyous memories that come to me. This is a way of releasing the heavy</p><p class="ql-align-justify">energy you hold within you heart and sacral charkas.</p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Donna Eden</strong> says by putting two a couple of fingers under your thymus</p><p class="ql-align-justify">bone you will be able to relieve your anxiety and your grief by rubbing these</p><p class="ql-align-justify">two points on each side. Gentle rake your lungs with your fingers across the</p><p class="ql-align-justify">top above your chest, pulling the heavy energy off and allowing you to breath</p><p class="ql-align-justify">easier. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Meditations </strong>– I use the Honest Guys on YouTube of “Letting Go” for</p><p class="ql-align-justify">releasing grief emotions. There are other free meditations on YouTube that you</p><p class="ql-align-justify">can use for meditation. </p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><strong>Most Important: Know That Grief is Okay to Feel</strong></p><p class="ql-align-justify"><br></p><p class="ql-align-justify">It’s a completely natural response to loss, whether that loss</p><p class="ql-align-justify">was by choice or not.</p><p class="ql-align-justify">The truth is, grief can feel overwhelming, making us want to</p><p class="ql-align-justify">push it away.</p><p class="ql-align-justify">However, this often only makes it more pronounced, echoing in</p><p class="ql-align-justify">other parts of our lives or actions. Instead, feeling our way through is the</p><p class="ql-align-justify">best way to heal and as we gradually begin to feel like ourselves again.</p><br>]]></content:encoded><link><![CDATA[https://youve-got-the-power.captivate.fm]]></link><guid isPermaLink="false">98809c5b-1336-4b16-8301-18f8cb3fb696</guid><itunes:image href="https://artwork.captivate.fm/3db5618d-b26a-4977-adc6-5c91ac0193bb/my-W0g9c9PG-meTPcDpDoK97.jpg"/><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jo-Anne Kobylka]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 30 Sep 2024 04:00:00 -0400</pubDate><enclosure url="https://podcasts.captivate.fm/media/e363ac63-0000-4258-93d0-97edd3c0dd39/Ways-to-Help-you-Release-Sorrow-and-Grief-converted.mp3" length="14221578" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:duration>14:49</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><itunes:episode>7</itunes:episode><itunes:season>1</itunes:season><podcast:episode>7</podcast:episode><podcast:season>1</podcast:season><itunes:author>Jo-Anne Kobylka</itunes:author></item><item><title>Growing Can Be Uncomfortable | EP006</title><itunes:title>Growing Can Be Uncomfortable | EP006</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>In today’s episode, host Jo-Anne Kobylka explores how discomfort often signals personal growth.
