Dear All
APOLOGIES FOR THE GLITCH IN THE PREVIOUS EMAIL.
Jon is away on holiday, so I have had to sort out the youtube problem myself, so it is not so elegantly 'top and tailed'....but you can get the core message below.
For those of you who don't know an emal went out with a glitch in it, so the video only played for 10 seconds. THANK YOU to those who let me know about this.

JULIET'S MUSING
43. THE BOUNDARIES SERIES: TALK FIVE
The Courage of No
Refusal as an Act of Care
Saying no is one of the most spiritual acts we can perform in relationship. Not dramatic refusal shouted in rage, but quiet, clear refusal spoken early enough to protect both people.
Many of us grew up equating no with rejection. We learned that to be lovable we should be agreeable, flexible, available. So we said yes when we meant no, and paid for it later in resentment, exhaustion, or emotional distance.
