Creating Balance In Your Life

Jana Kingsford, author of the book Unjuggled wrote “Balance is not something you find, it is something you create.” How do you do that? How do you create balance in your life? Here are some tools from Psychology Today to help you move toward creating balance in ways that you can.

Clarify your values.
An important starting place in working toward spending time on a range of things that matter to you is clarifying what is important to you. Pay particular attention to the areas of life that you value but that you struggle to fit into your life so that you can work toward adding them into your daily, weekly, or monthly routines. This process can help you attend to what is important to you and not just what is urgent.

Turn toward the reality of time.
Choose a typical day or week and monitor how long you spend in each domain of your life (e.g., work, family, friends, self-care and nourishment, community, spirituality, household responsibilities, etc). Notice what takes longer than you expe...

4 Tips to Filling Your Cup

There is a saying that goes “You can’t pour from an empty cup.” Sometimes we’re too busy filling other people’s cups, we forget to fill up our own. Then when we try to pour from an empty cup or from a cup that has very little in it, we get overwhelmed, frazzled, exhausted. We need to be refilling our cups often. Tana Amen shared some tips on how to do that.

1. Find Your Purpose
When you have a purpose in life, you have something that drives you. You make healthier choices, live longer, and enjoy better mental and physical health. But without a purpose in life, you may be prone to depression or loneliness—which can actually shorten your lifespan. To find your purpose, ask yourself just 3 simple questions:

  • What am I willing to suffer for?
  • What am I most passionate about?
  • How do I make the world a better place—or how would I like to?

These questions will help you determine what’s most important to you, regardless of others’ opinions. When you know your values, skills, interests,...

Tips to Avoid Late Night Snacking

Perhaps there are days where you ate well the whole day but at night you get hit with cravings and end up eating whatever you want. Unfortunately, late night snacking can cause several problems such as sleep disruption and elevated blood sugar. Studies have also shown that eating a majority of your calories late at night can prevent you from losing weight.

Here are some tips from VerywellFit to help avoid overeating before bedtime.

Eat Regular Meals
One of the best ways to prevent late night eating is to avoid skipping meals. Meal skipping can put you at risk of hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) as well as increase the urge to overeat later on. Aim to eat three balanced meals and an afternoon snack daily. Add snacks in between meals if needed. This will help you to feel less hungry at night. Once you are eating less at night, you likely will feel more hungry throughout the day.

It is often hard to eat breakfast when your last meal or snack took place hours before rising. By reducing i...

What to Do When You Feel You Are Losing Faith

faith resilience rise Feb 02, 2025

There is a reason why having faith is important. Whether it is in a religious belief or in yourself, having faith gives you a sense of confidence, belongingness, and conviction. Such faith can give you the resolve and strength to remain resilient in adversity. Research has also shown that having faith can positively affect physical and mental health.

When everything is going well it’s easy to have faith. It’s much more challenging when things are not going your way which may cause you to lose faith. Losing your faith can take a toll on your resilience and undermine your sense of belongingness. But it can also be an opportunity to grow, build a stronger sense of self-awareness, and cultivate new beliefs that are more closely aligned with your current values, goals, and needs.

No matter why it's happening, there are steps you can take to cope. Acknowledging your emotions, reconnecting with spirituality, practicing gratitude, and finding social support may help. This article from VeryWe...
