The fifth basic of a healthy self-love practice is space, which encompasses both a physical space where we can be alone to focus on (and figure out how to meet) our needs AND the emotional boundaries we create, communicate, and enforce. In my own life, I find claiming a physical space to be something I'm very adept at, and, once claimed, I hang on to these spaces quite well also! However, setting emotional boundaries is much more difficult for me, especially when it comes to communicating those boundaries. There's no "closed door" with an emotional boundary! As part of my self-love practice and just general growth as a human being, I have decided to let me ability to claim physical space influence and inspire my desire to create and communicate healthy emotional boundaries. What about you? Where do you have a space in your home? Even a corner or a desktop counts--it's not about the size but it IS more than a symbolic thing. We need an actual place where we can focus on and grow our self-love. Where's yours?
