Compassionate Boundaries: How Mindfulness Helps You Say “No” with Kindness and Clarity

In this episode of Mindfulness Exercises with Sean Fargo, Sean explores how mindfulness can transform the way we set and communicate boundaries.

Saying “no” doesn’t have to come from guilt or fear—it can arise from awareness, care, and self-respect.

Sean guides listeners through a 10-minute meditation to sense the body’s inner “yes” and “no,” offering practical scripts for real-life situations and trauma-sensitive tips for mindfulness teachers, therapists, and coaches.

Listeners will learn how to recognize their limits, express needs with compassion, and maintain relationships rooted in authenticity and presence.

Tune in to experience how mindful boundaries can bring more balance, integrity, and peace into your daily life.
