Developing healthy boundaries is essential for selfprotection from "summary" of The Sexual Healing Journey by Wendy Maltz
Developing healthy boundaries is like creating a protective shield around yourself. It helps you define who you are, what you stand for, and what you will or will not tolerate in your life. These boundaries act as a barrier against harmful behaviors, unwanted advances, and emotional manipulation.
