5 Tips on How to Find Balance in Your Life

Finding balance in our every day lives can often be very challenging especially today when we lead such hectic lives. There are a lot of women who struggle to find the balance with motherhood and holding a job which leads to major stress.

How often have we said to ourselves that there are not enough hours in a day to do everything?

Finding balance is essential if we want to have a healthy body and mind. It’s important to understand that balance is not a temporary fix. It is long term.

It won’t always be easy to find that balance and you will struggle in the beginning, but the important thing is not to give up and keep trying until you get there.

Here are 5 Tips on How to Find Balance in Your Life that I hope you will find useful.

1. Goals

When setting goals it is important to set realistic ones. Focus on the important things that matter most.

Concentrate on setting long term and short term goals.

Set goals focusing on your finances, job and relationships. Sit down, concentrate and write down what you really want to achieve and be consistent in committing to your goals.

2. Prioritise 

When you set goals and make lists you write down the most important things to do first. You just have to figure out what is more important and then you systematically get it done crossing it off your to do list.

This is important as it gives you structure and order, stopping you stressing about doing everything at once, which is virtually impossible and just causes unnecessary anxiety.

3. Learn to say no

Do not feel obliged that you have to say yes to every one all the time whether it is at work or at home. This becomes easier as you get older.

You can be polite and still say no. If you do not want to do something don’t do it. No point adding more stress to your already busy life.

4. Learn to delegate

Do not be afraid to ask for help. It is impossible to do everything yourself.

We all need help. So get your partners and children to help you. If you know you won’t have time to do something, instead of stressing just ask your partner.

Get your children to do chores around the house. Write down a schedule with different tasks and stick it on the fridge so the whole family know what they have to do.

5. Find time for yourself

This is extremely important. Find one day a week where you totally relax and pamper yourself. Have a massage, facial or a manicure. This will make you feel good.

Yoga is extremely relaxing and calming so try to do it at least once a week.

Taking a break from social media is also a good idea. Instead of spending hours on the phone, tablet or computer in the evenings, take a relaxing long bath and listen to some classical music. This will make you sleep well and you will be refreshed the next morning.
