Publisher's summary

Do you tend to struggle in personal or professional relationships? Do you find it difficult preventing others from walking all over you? Or do you simply feel that people don't treat you with enough respect?

If so, then it is likely that you have trouble establishing functional boundaries with the people in your life. Healthy boundaries allow us to enjoy relationships and connect with others in a harmonious way. They also serve to protect us and let other people know how we want to be treated.

Unfortunately, many of us do not learn about setting boundaries and how to be assertive during childhood. This is often due to a dysfunctional upbringing which leaves wounds upon our inner child. This book will inform the listener of the basis of boundary setting, through visiting their past, healing it, and finally moving beyond. This will be achieved by demonstrating how to develop emotionally by improving self-esteem, which is a necessity for a healthy personality.

With the information presented you will be able to begin setting healthier boundaries in all areas of life including family, work, and intimate relationships. You will learn exactly how to:

• Develop functional boundaries
• Deal with difficult people
• Boost self-esteem
• Heal your past
• Heal your inner child
• Emotionally heal
• Gain assertiveness
• Improve relationships
• Develop emotionally

Once you learn these vital life skills, your world begins to open up and your connection to others becomes more authentic. If you want more from life and would love to find more fulfillment in your relationships, listen to this book.

Very helpful!

Very informative, clear explanations for the beginner who hasn't been able to set boundaries. Wish I'd read this 40 years ago! Great read/listen for anyone who has been manipulated by others.

Development of emotional boundaries

As a listener of this book I was informed exactly how to begin setting boundaries, through visiting their past, healing it and finally moving beyond and more. This will be achieved by showing the reader how to develop emotionally while improving self-esteem, which is a necessity of a healthy personality to sum this up it help me alot to move and know my boundaries as a person.

Great book, good insight and practical application

I reread this book whenever i feel like I'm struggling with maintaining healthy boundaries. Its a great read and its told in a way that is relatable and easy to understand.

true to its title

really does teach what you would want to learn. I would like to have learned a little more about inner child healing. Yet the book is worth it for what it does give insight on.

A bit too generalized

The gentleman reading did a fine job. The content was a bit too general for my needs. In the beginning, the author references a spectrum of boundary issues which leads me to believe there are equally as many possibilities to breach boundaries and to retrain. It could be useful to reference a resource to access depending on where a person is in that spectrum as I imagine that the solution maybe different for the reader who exhibits cold hard lines vs. the reader who exhibits solicitous behavior. Perhaps not. Perhaps it all boils down to self esteem, but my guess is it's just not that simple. I certainly appreciated the insights, but wished for a little more direction for the person with minimal self esteem issues who tends toward being somewhere in the middle of the spectrum.

Awesome!

thank you very much for this book. I am sure that it will help me tremendously.

great self help!

loved this. very helpful for those working through codependency issues. I love how they encourage inner child healing. that's so key

Good Insight

Has great examples of how to word boundaries, and good processes, that if committed to, can help create healthy boundaries.

Not bad

Good concise overview of boundaries and assertiveness. Better advice in other books, but worth a listen.

Very interesting

If you could sum up Boundaries & Emotional Development in three words, what would they be?

Helpful Book

What other book might you compare Boundaries & Emotional Development to and why?

I really enjoyed this book, it makes a lot of sense. I learned how to balance myself out, from my upbringing. I will work harder to balance out for my kids.. Nothing to compare

Any additional comments?

I read this book to temper the rising frustration and panic I was experiencing. The takeaway that I got from this book is that it isn't that raising our boys might not be a steeper hill or more work than we originally anticipated.

Good book!
