Living Well Through Balanced Living-Part 3

If you think that work and family life balance is a small problem, you may be interested
to know that, in addition to the few companies that have recognized the issue and taken
the lead in establishing life balance programs, there are numerous organizations,
foundations, universities and groups doing research on this topic.

Organizations as diverse as religious groups, government agencies, human resource
companies and behavioral scientists now study these issues and, not just because it is
the right thing to do.  There are real economic advantages to companies that recognize the need for life balance and create a working environment to help their employees live their lives more fully.

Companies spend a lot of money training and keeping employees and happy employees will stay longer, live longer and contribute to the company longer.  But, we are just scratching the surface in understanding the true human toll that an unbalanced life takes. Many have studied the evolving societal issues and their roots in overwork and lost community connections.
If you WANT more balance in your life but you wonder whether it is all that important,
let’s talk about the reasons you NEED this balance.

Health – Living an unbalanced life where work dominates can significantly affect your health. Long or stressful work hours can cause problems with your heart, your blood pressure, and your sleep cycles.
Studies show a significant increase in heart attack and stroke since the advent of
seventy-hour workweeks. Long hours at work and lots of work related travel also
encourages poor diet and leaves little time for exercise.
As we become more out of shape, sleep less and experience health problems, we are
no longer the powerful asset to our employers, nor can we participate fully in a family
and social life.

Emotional Wellness – Your ability to give back to your family, friends and community,and your own emotional stability depends on a balanced life.
As overly dramatic as it sounds, you are likely to experience emotional problems, need
counseling and suffer from anxiety attacks or other problems if you have no time to
decompress and relax.
