Healthy Lines: A Personal Boundaries Workbook
If you've ever said yes when you meant no, felt drained after seeing certain people, or spent days recovering from a single conversation, this workbook is for you[cite: 14]. It's for the chronic over-givers, the peace-keepers, the people who've quietly been carrying everyone else's feelings for so long they've forgotten what their own actually are[cite: 14].
Saying no without guilt[cite: 14]. Holding the line with love[cite: 14]. Ending people-pleasing[cite: 14]. Not as a personality overhaul — as a learnable clinical skill[cite: 14].
Designed by Sabrina Peters, a registered psychologist and founder of The Healthy Mind, this is a clinical, research-informed workbook drawing on Gottman's research on conflict, attachment theory, Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, and Pete Walker's work on the fawn response[cite: 14]. It gives you the language for things you've felt but never named[cite: 14].
A 72-page printable PDF workbook with five guided sections plus a bonus toolkit, and 10 clinical worksheets and assessments woven throughout[cite: 14].
The five sections plus bonus tools:
- Part 1 — Understanding Your Boundaries: What boundaries actually are, the six types, and where your patterns came from[cite: 14]
- Part 2 — The People-Pleasing Trap: Fawn responses, nice vs kind, guilt vs guilt-tripping[cite: 14]
- Part 3 — Saying No Without the Spiral: The anatomy of a healthy no, plus 25+ scripts for real situations[cite: 14]
- Part 4 — Boundaries in Specific Relationships: Parents, in-laws, marriage, kids, work, friendships, digital[cite: 14]
- Part 5 — When Boundaries Get Tested: Pushback, manipulation tactics, repair, and holding the line[cite: 14]
- Bonus — Tools and Reminders: A 30-day tracker, affirmations, and a reminder card[cite: 14]
The 10 clinical worksheets and assessments:
- Boundary Self-Assessment[cite: 14]
- Identifying Your Boundary Style (Porous, Rigid, Healthy)[cite: 14]
- Family of Origin Boundaries Audit[cite: 14]
- People-Pleasing Patterns Tracker[cite: 14]

Who this is for:
