Welcome to Litsy!

4✨ The information in this one is so helpful! Everyone has something that they struggle with boundaries on. While I was reading I recognized many things that I didn‘t even know I should work on to have a more stress free lifestyle. By setting boundaries with the people in your life doesn‘t mean that you don‘t care, but it helps establish your own goals and peace. #Roll100 Aug

This was a very insightful and helpful book, I've learned quite a lot about myself and boundaries - mine and others.

Finished my 2nd book of #SummerEndReadathon ! This book uses Bible passages to guide individuals in setting boundaries in their lives. There were a few useful chapters for me, but it felt like a majority of the book was how to establish boundaries in raising children, which is not pertinent to me or my life. I've read other books on this topic that have been more useful to me. @TheSpineView

The information of this book was great, but the overt Christianity felt like wrapping this common sense advice in the jargon of a cult to make it palatable to the the cult members. It was extremely weird to read in that regard.

Struggling with a challenging person in your life? Try the Boundaries book! ❤️

Prompt: Boundaries

I should have read this before tonight so that it would have been easier to say no when they asked me to work 6pm-2am!! I‘ve been up since 4am 🤦🏼‍♀️ More more =more taxes they take out!

I ordered this... It was recommended by a friend. Not my usual read, but I‘ll try it.

I quite enjoyed this one, even though it was heavy in regards to Bible references. I feel they covered all the situations in regards to boundaries setting, giving good explanations and examples. I found it to be enlightening and helpful.

#audiobook #audible This book has some good ideas for setting boundaries for those who struggle with boundaries or codependency. I like the practical examples that demonstrate how this plays out in real life. Be aware that this book is written from a Christian perspective, so there is a lot of Scripture included as well.

I vowed to do more Nonfiction this year, and this has been in my Overdrive hold list for 18 weeks, and my husband said I needed to read it before I put the hold on, so when it came up I went with it.

It does have good advice.

But over all it felt like a horoscope: just enough detail to seem on point for everyone who reads it but no actual depth.

Fantastic book! Based on biblical principles on saying no. Will probably re-read, or refer back to this book when making some decisions. Especially, when I feel guilt for saying no to someone.

Testing this app

Just a few of my TBR list for the year. I noticed that I seem to already own more non-fiction than fiction..not what I expected

"Learn to love in freedom and responsibility, not in guilt."

My therapist pretty much prescribed this book to me hoping it would help with my boundaries and my codependency issues. Even though I have been reading it on & off, I cannot ignore that much of what Drs. Cloud & Townsend have talked about is quite relatable for me. If you are struggling in your relationships or recovering from an abusive/unhealthy relationship this book is so helpful. #boundaries #relationshipadvice #recovery #healing

At a stalemate with my bookshelf. This happens every time I attempt to organize by color. Why do I do this to myself? I'm drowning in neutrals over here! 😂 #junebookbugs #canteven

We listen to understand and respectfully question to achieve clarity, IN BOTH MESSAGE AND MUTUAL EXPECTATIONS. We openly discuss critical issues, and deliver difficult messages with care. WE COMMIT TO NOT LEAVING IMPORTANT THINGS UNSAID AND WE AVOID SAYING THEM TO SOMEONE ELSE OTHER THAN THE PERSON WHO SHOULD HEAR THEM.

This was a really important book for me. I went through it slowly and learned a ton. Highly recommended! #selfhelp

And oh, what the heck! I'll be reading most of the weekend anyway so why not join in on #hellooctober

Can't recommend this book enough. If you have problems saying 'no' to people, setting boundaries in your relationships or knowing what IS your responsibility and what isn't - then this book is for you! Re-reading through it for the 2nd time today as I could use a little reminder of some of these principles right now.
