Do the words “I don’t have enough time” ever come to mind? Ever wondered how you will get enough time?
Having a good work-life balance is key to keeping yourself happy and accomplishing tasks. To be happy you need to make sure you have time to do the activities that you enjoy, weather that be doing house work, spending time with friends and family or going to the gym. Research from the Mental Health Foundation tells us that one in six of us will experience a mental health problem in any given week.
Here’s our tips on how to have a better work-life balance:
Don't bring work homeIf you have lots of work to do, just remember to set yourself a deadline to finish this. You should never take your work home with you as this never gives you time to relax or time to forget. You will forget what is important, set your priorities straight and give yourself a rest. Work needs to be done at work. Keep track of your working hours and leave on time. Longer hours lead to longer unhappiness.
Having a poor work-life balance is what makes you have negative well-being and physical health. You may have heard this numerous times but exercise really does help! Get yourself to the gym before or after work. Recent studies from HelpGuide show that exercise is the main benefit to improve mental/physical health, it is a natural healing remedy. If you have had a long stressful day then going to the gym can help you release all of this negative energy.
