What is Time Boundaries?

Protecting non-work hours from the creep of professional demands. Time boundaries acknowledge that your value as a person is not reducible to your productivity. Rest is not earned — it is required.

When you might feel time boundaries

Time Boundaries is a specific form of work-life balance, which itself is a type of professional. You might experience this feeling in situations where professional is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define time boundaries.
