How to Have the Perfect Balanced Life

in Health on 09/10/17

To live a fulfilled life, you need to have balance. This means that you don’t let one thing take over your life at the expense of others. Having a fulfilled, balanced life is difficult to maintain but incredibly rewarding. It allows you to enjoy all aspects of life, from spending time with loved ones, having new adventures, and succeeding at your goals. To balance your hectic schedule so that you can live a more balanced life, follow this simple guide:

Your Health

For most people the goal of having a balanced life is one that requires change. Either you want to try to actively balance your life out because you feel yourself burning out, or simply because you want to get more out of life. Either way, the first area of your life you should look at improving is your health. Having a balanced life can feel very tiring at first, and being in tip top physical form is how you’ll make it through. You will need to:

  1. Eat Healthy

Cut out the bad foods and replace them with things that are delicious and nutritious. The healthier you eat, the better you will feel. You will also benefit from becoming leaner, having your skin improve, and elongating your life.

  1. Drink Water

Water flushes out toxins and hydrates our bodies. Drink the recommended amount of water so you can benefit from more energy, higher alertness, clearer skin, and more.

  1. Get Proper Rest

Stay away from electronics and other blue/white light before you go to bed. The light, which is what you will see during daytime, will chemically interrupt your sleep cycle.

  1. Exercise

Exercise for the physical, emotional, and mental benefits. Exercising releases oxytocin, which improves your mood, allows you to de-stress, and improves your physique. A daily exercise routine is also the secret to being in shape as you age.

Your Work

Whether you have career aspirations or simply want to get through the work day better, improving your productivity is part of how you will live a balanced life. The secret is to work only when you are at work. If you bring your work life with you into your home life, you are disrupting the balance. If you do have to work when you are at home, keep it to a certain time frame and only work in one location – that isn’t the bedroom!

Working more productively is better than working longer. Being healthier and better rested will give you more energy to work throughout the day, but you should also take strategic breaks to refuel and continue to work hard. The more consistent and more routine your work day is, the better you will be at performing those set tasks.

Your Family

Your family are the next stage. Once you sort out your health so you have more natural energy, you will be able to work more productively (ideally meaning you won’t have to work overtime or at home). Once you have those two stages set, you can work on increasing your commitments to your family. Being a member of a family is difficult. You either need to try to stay in touch and to see them if they live away from you, or you need to live with them inside your home. Balancing your family with the other areas of your life means making time for them. An option for working parents is to spend their home life with their family, and then make extra dates to make time for their friends, their hobbies, and even to go out.

Raising a family is difficult, but routine can help you a lot. If you, say, have a date night every Friday with your partner and leave your children with a family member or trusted baby sitter, your children will get used to your absence and it will become the norm for them while also allowing you to enjoy time with your partner. The same goes for making time for friends. Another solution is to make plans that involve the whole family.

Your Friends

It can be very hard for friends as adults to make time to see each other. Separate lives, separate schedules, and even location can mean that even the closest friendships suffer. Try to get your friends together at least once a week so that you can enjoy each other’s company and catch up. This can be something as simple as a bunch on a Sunday. Try to make seeing your friend’s routine, so that everyone will naturally make time for your meeting. Once you see each other more often, you’ll be able to naturally make more and more plans – and even meet new people!

Your Hobbies

You should never underestimate the power of alone time. You need time for yourself to unwind, relax, and focus on yourself. You can keep one day of the week off limits for socializing and use that time to spend at home or doing your hobbies. If your hobby is something you love doing, and takes a lot of time, this is a great way to both do what you love and actively finish projects. Keep the inspiration going by working in the same place, making that workspace comfortable for you, and being open to spontaneity. Going for adventures, whether it’s to a new bar or to a new country, is the last stage to balancing your life. Making time for yourself, however, should come first.

Your Adventures  

The last stage of your life that you need to make time for is for adventures. A great way to have a balanced life and still have fun and go off on adventures is to get a vacation home from Winter Park real estate. You will be able to bring your whole family, invite your friends, and still be able to have epic adventures together. Having a balanced life doesn’t mean that you can’t have fun, it just means you need to be smarter about your time and how you can bring your loved ones with you.

Living a balanced life can be difficult, especially at the start. Don’t try to completely change your life at once, and instead work to improve these key areas of your life first. You will find what works best for you along the way.
