Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life

Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No to Take Control of Your Life


By Drs. Henry Cloud and John Townsend
This bestselling and award-winning (2+ million copies sold) faith-based book has changed thousands of lives. While many people focus on being loving and giving, they often forget their own limits and limitations. They need to set boundaries. Have you, for example, ever found yourself wondering:

Can I set limits and still be a loving person?
How do I answer someone who wants my time, love, energy, or money?
Why do I feel guilty when I consider setting boundaries?
Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks those things for which we are responsible. In other words, boundaries define who we are and who we are not.
Boundaries impact all areas of our lives:
  • Physical boundaries help us determine who may touch us
  • Mental boundaries give us the freedom to have our own thoughts
  • Emotional boundaries help us to deal with our own emotions
  • Spiritual boundaries help us to distinguish God's will from our own
Here's the book that shows how to set boundaries to better take control of your life. 402 pages. Softcover. 2002.
