Setting Healthy Boundaries
Establishing boundaries is good for you and the people around you. When you’re clear about your boundaries, people will understand your limits and know what you are and aren’t OK with, and they’ll adjust their behavior.
Healthy boundaries can also help you:
Boost your self-esteem
Decide clearly on your identity, goals, beliefs, and worldview.
Put your own needs and well-being first.
Boost your emotional and mental well-being
Prevent burnout
Grow autonomous
Develop a stronger sense of self
How to Set and Respect Boundaries to Enhance Your Well-Being
Providing honest, frank, and upfront feedback about your limits is the greatest way to begin establishing boundaries. Try these suggestions:
Share your ideas with others. When discussing your ideas and feelings with someone else, do so in an open and courteous manner. It's acceptable to need some time to compose yourself both before and after the talk. However, don't let it serve as a justification for keeping your feelings from them.
Never presume or guess the emotions of another person. In relationships, assuming things can lead to a great deal of miscommunication. Even if you might think you know someone so well that you could infer their thoughts, it's always preferable to ask questions instead of making assumptions.
Follow through on what you say. Establishing limits and then failing to enforce them gives the other person a justification to keep pushing them. Never cross your boundaries without giving it some serious thought. If not, you can find yourself making compromises on issues that you find unacceptable.
Take responsibility for your actions. Consider the decisions you've made in a relationship and whether they may have contributed to the issue, rather than blaming others or whining about the state of affairs or how you're feeling.
Know when it’s time to move on. You aren't accountable for your partner's emotions or communication, but you may express how you want to be treated in a relationship. Everyone is entitled to equitable and respectful treatment. You should consider ending the relationship if the other person is unable to respect your boundaries.
It can be difficult to prioritize oneself, but this is the right time to do so. Setting limits can be a useful life skill that improves and restores your relationships in the long run.

About: Maybe you already manifest regularly or you’ve heard of it, but never tried it. Manifesting means using the power of your thoughts, feelings or beliefs to bring something into your physical reality.
At first, it sounds abstract, but science has proven, everything is made of energy: objects, animals, thoughts, and humans.
There are laws that control how this energy flows and where it goes just as there are laws of gravity and laws of growth. The more you know about these laws the easier it is to navigate the energy you need in the right direction.
No wonder that even stars like Will Smith, Jim Carrey, Oprah Winfrey, and Lady Gaga swear by manifestation as the secret to their success.
Jim Carrey makes it sound really simple. He says: “As far as I can tell, it’s just about letting the universe know what you want and then working towards it while letting go of how it comes to pass.”
Yet, there are reasons why some people are better at manifesting than others.
There are a couple of fundamentals you need to understand in order to apply manifestation effectively. With a little guidance and the right techniques, your best life is waiting for you.
In this book, you’ll learn how to use the law of attraction in every aspect of your life—money, health, relationships, happiness, and in every interaction you have in the world. You’ll begin to understand the hidden, untapped power that’s within you, and this revelation can bring joy to every aspect of your life.

POSITIVE NEWS OF THE DAY
Kiwi chicks have hatched in Wellington, the New Zealand capital, for the first time in more than 150 years.
The new chicks come a year after the Capital Kiwi Project reintroduced the country’s iconic national bird to the city.
“This is a significant milestone for the mission to restore a large-scale wild population of kiwi to the hills of our capital city,” said the organisation, in a statement. “Much work lies ahead – but these chicks mark a significant step on that path.”
DID YOU KNOW?
How to Say “No”
There are many ways to say “no”:
Just say “no.” No wavering. No second-guessing. Just no.
“I won’t be able to make it; I have another commitment.”
“Thank you, I’m not able to take that on right now.”
“Thanks for thinking of me, but I have to say no.”
“While I loved being a part of the last presentation, public speaking really isn’t my thing, so I won’t do it this year.”

What is Flying Pigeon Pose?
Flying pigeon pose, or eka pada galavasana in Sanskrit, is a challenging advanced balancing posture. The yogi balances on their hands with one leg in pigeon and the other leg extended back. It takes core and leg strength to keep the legs in this asymmetrical position.
Instructions
Begin in chair pose. Cross the left ankle over the right thigh.
Bend forward and bring the palms to the floor. Hook the left toes around the right upper arm and bend the arms deeply.
Exhale and lean forward. Lift the right leg up and back. Keep pressing the left leg into the forearms to lift the torso and back leg up.
Breathe while holding the pose.
Exhale and lower. Change sides.
