Feeling Safe Starts Here

In public speaking or entering a room, there is an old expression called: Reading the Room. It is a skill that allows you to understand the mood, the needs, and even the character of the people in the room. The key to this skill is recognizing what your body tells you once you enter the room. It also happens when you meet someone on the street or in the mall. Understanding the energy you get from another person changes how you are in the world, and it is the foundation of being safe. If you want to learn how to do this, Start Here

HOW DO BOUNDARIES WORK?

Just as no two paths are alike, neither are our boundaries. Our Seven Steps to Powerful Boundaries course serves as a transformative guide, illuminating the path from where you stand today to the realization of your highest self. It's a journey of empowerment, guiding you towards the mastery of your boundaries and the fulfillment of your potential.

Know Yourself

Boundaries begin and end with you. The first step is to take a deep dive into yourself. We've created a map, all you have to do is follow it.

Define Boundaries

Sharing a common vocabulary is necessary to understand how and why boundaries work.

Control Your Boundaries

Understanding how boundaries work unlocks the potential to use them. We can show you how to do it safely

Master Your Boundaries

Say no without guilt, hold your ground, feel compassion without absorbing others’ feelings, learn tools to heal relationships, and make your life easier.

Unspoken Boundaries for Groups

To change ourselves, we must self-examine. Seven Steps to Powerful Boundaries encourages you to explore how you developed boundaries. This is essential to changing how you choose to be in the world. I am encouraging you to take this workshop in community. Explore with the support of one or more people taking the same journey. It gives accountability and someone to process your insights and practice the skills you are acquiring. You will find it a richer, more satisfying experience.

See what people are saying about our boundary course

“Merle Yost’s skillful and sensitive teaching provides important, and usually neglected, information about boundaries. Over time, I have realized that helping clients (and myself) actually understand boundaries is the most basic element of our work in therapy. I particularly liked Merle’s experiential focus. We learn instantly when we experience something, in our own bodies, in the moment. His Gestalt approach was integrated into my own work with clients the very next day. Colleagues who have taken the course have been 100% glad they did, including myself.”

Marilyn Owens, LMFT

“I truly enjoyed Merle’s Unspoken Boundaries Workshop. I found it very detailed and extremely informative. It was comprehensive in material and easy to follow with suggestive coping interventions. Moreover, this course was easy to understand and gave me stimulating insight on so many levels. I personally recommend it and hope you will too take away its profound impact as I did. Thank you”

Joseph S., LMFT, LPCC, LAADC

“Wow, that workshop totally shifted my outlook on life. I'm slowly becoming more and more confident in myself without the need of validation through others. I am going to live my life MY way, which I think will be very different from my friends and family.“
