@Journey within, we sure can end up much happier if we are in balance, won’t we? Thanks for your feedback!

@Kevin, it’s great that you’ve been doing some inner healing! I wish you much success!

@Liara, I can’t agree more

I wonder how much “un-balance” occurs because people resent the place where they are at, be it parenthood or some other life condition, because they believe their time is running out? You might guess my answer to that one! ;=)

Lance – Thanks for your support. Working with Evelyn and connecting with her natural wisdom has been a true honor.

Sara – It was great to watch the process of this post unfold and I’m happy to know you are practicing the art of life balance.

Jenn – Thank you for letting us know how much you appreciated the post.

Glen – It just so happens that I am a fan of yours too.

Jay – Thanks for the kind words. I love collaborating and experiencing the power of two.

Stacey Shipman – If people take one thing away from my blog, I hope it’s that life balance is a practice and a journey.

Daphne – I think it goes to show, what you focus on expands.

Vered – In reality, finding balance is a life long journey.

J.D. – “Be careful what you wish for.” – It’s an old saying, but it’s a keeper. So if you are going to wish, be sure you have a balanced wish.

Wilson – Thank for you sharing your trick. It reminds me of the chorus to Unanswered Prayers (Garth Brooks). It goes like this…Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers, Remember when you’re talkin’ to the man upstairs, That just because he doesn’t answer doesn’t mean he don’t care, Some of God’s greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.

Cath – I hope you let us know how the life balance exercises worked out for you.

Kevin – Great question. I also recently wrote a post about anger and had an ah-ha moment when someone left a comment reminding me that anger and other negative emotions are fear based reactions. Now, when I sense anger creeping in, I take a deep breath and clearly state the fear that’s generating my anger. This puts the focus on my fears and the anger seems to slip away. I think being aware of your life fears (which can hide behind negative emotions) can open us more space for you to practice the art of life balance.

Lisa – I’m here for the journey and look forward to experiencing it together.

Dot – I think we all need to keep reminding ourselves to take good care of ourselves first. One idea is to write down the words “I take care of myself first” and put it in a place where you will see it every day.

Arswino – Thank you for your kind words. You have my promise that I will continue to dig deeper to provide more and more resources to share with you on my blog.

Marelisa – I think society often puts a label on people who put themselves first, but as you know, we can’t give to others if we are empty.

Peter – Thank you for sharing a part of your life balance journey. I think the power behind practicing the art of life balance is to be aware of when different aspects of your life are falling out of balance so you can course correct. As you know, life balance is not utopia. It is a process, a journey, a practice, and an awareness of what you want out of life.

Love reading you blog Evelyn
Now I got one more blog to read (Stacey’s)

I asked myself how to have a balance for years.

My problem was that I had a hard time to define what balance
really meant to me. I love self-improvement in general. I’ve read all Tony Robbins books, Joe Vitale, Bob Proctor,… but the more I’ve read the more confused I become. I wanted inner balance + balance in all life’s areas such as personal professional, financial, emotional, mental and so on. Understanding Law of Attraction definitely helped me a lot to get clear on what is balance to me. I learned to set intentions, become more aware of what I was thinking and so on, but still seems that when I get one area more or less handled, another area start having a problem (get my personal life better, but financial suffered as an example)

I totally agree that this is a process and I believe that if you become successful and reach goals in one area it is definitely influence all areas and that way balance can be achieved easier.

Will be flowing in that direction

Thanks
