The concept of setting healthy boundaries may be foreign for many of us. This session will help participants learn about individual needs and balancing these needs with cultural and religious expectations in order to maximize one’s potential and improve mental health.
Students will learn how to set healthy boundaries and have more realistic expectations of themselves. They will also learn how to help others understand them and their needs, as well as their limits.
Anyone 17 and older can benefit from this session.
