The 3 H’s of Work-Life Balance – Health, Holidays and Hair
In the busy-ness of running your business it’s easy to forget the value of work-life balance.
The main stream idea of work life balance doesn’t always fit into reality and one should consider what that look like dependant on where you are, where you are heading, and at what stage your business is at.
So, what CAN you do that can positively impact your life AND ensure you experience the work-life balance that fits into your life, your schedule and your budget? The 3 H’s can do just that! Health, Holidays and Hair!
Health: Your wealthiest asset
Health is the foundation of all we do. Without it, the biggest bank account or the lowest tax deduction won’t stack up to much. As a business owner, maintaining your health means integrating small, manageable practices into your daily routine.
How could you include a brisk 5-minute walk into your day?
Could you swap out a chair for a stability ball?
Are you fuelling up on balanced meals?
Are you staying hydrated?
Often, it’s the little things that make the biggest difference when it comes to managing and maintaining your health so that you CAN enjoy your money in the bank!
Holidays: The joy of scheduled down time
Holidays aren’t just for the festive season; they are a vital part of a sustainable work rhythm. Holidays give us the opportunity to recharge, rejuvenate and return with a fresher perspective. Setting time aside for holidays is important. Plan and plot your downtime – whether is a quiet staycation or an adventurous trip abroad stepping away for some deserved and scheduled downtime helps you maintain a zest for life and work.
Hair: Express yourself
Now, let’s talk about hair. It may seem a little “left field” but think about it…. When did you last do something wildly different with your hair, try a new hairstyle, book in for a luxurious hair treatment? Taking care of your hair can be therapeutic. Its about taking a moment out of your busy schedule to cater for yourself, look in the mirror and say “Yes I am worth it.”
In conclusion, Work life balance isn’t just about less work and more play, it’s about integrating the 3 H’s Health, Holidays and Hair into your everyday life to enrich your existence both in and out of the office.
So go ahead and schedule that hair appointment, book that holiday and toss an extra apple into your work bag!
Remember a well-balanced life leads to a happier, more fulfilled you!
