Today’s episode of the "7 Days of Sanity" series focuses on the importance of setting healthy boundaries, especially during stressful times like election season. Protecting your energy is essential to maintaining peace and well-being.

Key Points:

1. Understanding Boundaries: Boundaries are not about excluding others but about choosing what you allow into your space, like a fence or gate.

2. Practical Examples: Limit your exposure to potentially draining content (e.g., opt for movies instead of cable TV or restrict phone use).

3. Scripts for Communication: Inform others of your choices without criticizing them (e.g., “I won’t watch the news until after the election to protect my sanity”).

4. Protecting Your Space: Fill your personal space with activities that recharge you, such as cooking or reading.

5. Try This: Set a timer for social media or news consumption and leave the environment when the time is up.

Homework: Set a new boundary today and observe how it impacts your peace. Repeat it if it works for you.

Join us tomorrow for Day 4 of this series! Explore more about boundaries in Shawna’s book Meet Me in the Middle, which is on sale this week and now available on Audible.
