Maintaining
BALANCE when there is so much to do!
By Lee-Anne Peters
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by
everything you need to do, what needs your attention and the rush of your
day? Maybe you struggle to get
everything done and then have time to rest and play as well... maintaining your
sense of BALANCE can be a struggle, however, my suggestion is to make it FUN!

| Do you have so much to do? |
BALANCE is something I am always
mindful of. It’s no accident that my teachings fall under the title of Temple
of Balance, and I am a living and breathing example of the BALANCE we can have.
However, there are even times where I feel the scales tip a little, I never see
this as a bad thing, but an opportunity for me to FINE TUNE my BALANCE again!
To maintain your BALANCE on those
physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels you will need to be as mindful
as possible of what is happening for YOU in those areas of your life.
Are they
BALANCED? Are they lopsided?
Some things to consider helping you
stay as BALANCED as possible every single day and moment:
* Be AWARE of all of those aspects
of YOU (body, mind, emotions, spirit) and how much you nurture and cherish them, or how much you reject or are
at conflict with them.
* SIMPLIFY – often if you are so
overwhelmed with tasks and things you must ‘do’ then something needs
simplifying. Your schedule and priorities may need to be looked at and finetuned
to make it EASIER for you to remain BALANCED. Let go of things that you do out
of chore, or things that don’t make your heart sing.
* NURTURING – if you feel pressured
or burdened with tasks or ‘to do’ things... then the best thing you can do is
stop, step back and spend some time nurturing or nourishing yourself - maybe a
soak in the tub, or a walk in nature. It may seem counterproductive because you
have so much to do, however, if you can take 30 – 90mins out and re-focus and
re-centre, your time ‘doing’ what you need to do will be more productive and
come from a clearer space of mind.
* Make a LIST – work out a doable
plan! This may help you sort things out in your mind, so you don’t HAVE TO
clutter your mind with things you want to do, but you can spend more of your
energy focusing on that one thing at a time. Then cross that task off your list
and move to the next thing. Lists are a great way to get things sorted within.
* GRATITUDE is such a valuable
concept for your energy and your life. Use your genuine gratitude to welcome
more of what you do want in your life.
If you are feeling overwhelmed and
out of BALANCE then it’s best to act and make changes sooner rather than later.
It’s through your commitment and your choices made that will re-BALANCE your
body, mind, emotions and spirit... and don’t forget to smile, laugh and have a
little fun getting into BALANCE.
