In reply to Ryan Trimble. Hi Ryan, yes that was it. A great webinar; thanks! Yesterday, after I posted I Googled “peace bubble” and the results reminded me of something I had read from Steven Hayes and Russ Harris concerning the ACT process of Self-as-Context/Observing Self/Noticing Self. I used this ACT process last night to help get a grip on my thoughts and it worked pretty good addressing my issue of having no heat or water in my home due to the freak winter storm here in Texas. Hopefully, I will start using it on a regular basis and make it a new habit for 2021. All the best!

Hi Scott, are you referring to our webinar from December, “A Path to Peace in 2021”? If so, you can find a recording on this page: https://www.vitalsmarts.com/webinars/.

In reply to Scott Jackson. Oh, I can totally relate. I need a peace bubble too but haven't been able to obtain one...

Hi Joseph, great article! I definitely need to work on my boundary issues.
I was in bed last night trying to sleep, when I remembered you talking before about being surrounded by a “peace bubble” when you were faced with adversity.
I need a “peace bubble” in my life right now.
Can you point me in a direction where I can learn how to acquire a peace bubble?
Thank you!

I think I would have had my mask on when I opened the door and would have reminded Bob that I had sent an e-mail that we are not hosting a family thanksgiving event this year.due to the covid pandemic. Did you receive this e-mail and read it? I would have gone outside and had the conversation outside rather than let the person in the house. I personally do not feel comfortable asking the why question as asking the why’s is more confrontational and inviting an argument. I likely would have said in a perfect world. I would enjoy gettting together with you when it is safe to do so.
See you when it’s safe.

I was brought up in a culture where people bend backwards to accommodate others for fear of being judged or termed as rude. I am daily making strides in enforcing the boundaries I have set. Slowly but surely getting there one day at a time. Great Advice.

I like the reminder that we need to always be respectful. But when we set boundaries & enforce them, the other person will likely have some sticky feelings and that is ok. I am not responsible to help them feel ok or to try not to make them feel bad. I’m really working on this one.

Great advice, especially for the “people pleasers” among us!
