7 Tips for Keeping Your Life In Balance


Maintaining a healthy life balance is not only essential for happiness and well-being, it can also be a tremendous boost to your productivity, relationships, and career or business. A well-balanced person has a  greater ability to focus on attaining their goals, having more energy, and taking productive actions.

Balance in life is not always easy to achieve.  How balanced do you think your life is?.

Sometimes we can be really happy in one area of our life and yet be unhappy in another area.

For example: a client of mine is amazingly happy with her relationship with her husband, they have a great life together and a wonderful understanding of each other.  However, my client is stressed about her financial situation and her career.  She made a career move and has been focusing on increasing her income through being self-employed.

She was speaking with her husband one evening and she mentioned that they had not been intimate for a week or so.   He replied ‘Honey you have been very busy with your business and have not had time for us recently, I totally understand and when you are less focused on your business we will get back to us.

This is an example of being out of balance, focusing only on one part of your life 100% and not focusing on all of your parts equally.

How do you do this you might ask?

We have many areas we struggle with at any given time.

  1. Weight

  2. Religion/Spirituality

  3. Finance

  4. Family

  5. Health & Wellness

  6. Relationships

This is not the complete list but you get the idea.  Balancing all of these and more can cause stress and anxiety in many of us.

Here are 7 tips that might help you:

  1. Rate out of 10 how happy/content/pleased you are with each area in your life, and notice which ones have the lowest scores.

  2. Spend more time on the lower-scoring parts until you get them to the level you are content with.

  3. Going forward spend equal amounts of time in all areas in your life.

  4. Put time limitations to make sure you spend the time daily in each area.

  5. Be conscious of your weakness’

  6. Always make time for meditation reflection or journaling, and clear your head.

  7. Consider purging often your closets, mind, friends, and attitudes.
