    Let's Talk About... Balance (Episode 14)

    enJanuary 12, 2020

    Podcast Summary

    • Maintaining balance for good mental healthRecognizing signs of imbalance and making sensible decisions leads to good mental health and well-being.

      Finding balance in all areas of life is crucial for good mental health and well-being. Balance means making sensible decisions and approaching everything with moderation. Living a life of excess or out of balance can lead to burnout, mistakes, and long-term health issues. Signs of being out of balance can range from extreme behaviors to smaller, everyday actions. For instance, working long hours at a job can throw your life out of balance. Being self-aware and honest with yourself is key to recognizing when you're out of balance and taking steps to correct it. Balance is present in nature and essential for humans to live healthy, happy lives.

    • Learning to Live a Balanced LifePrioritize health and well-being over job or social activities that negatively impact it. Reevaluate choices, especially regarding diet, exercise, and alcohol consumption, for a balanced life.

      It's essential to prioritize your health and work-life balance over your job or social activities that may negatively impact your well-being in the long run. The speaker shares her personal experience of learning to live a balanced life by giving up excessive drinking, which had become detrimental to her health. She emphasizes that everyone is different, and moderation may work for some, but for those who struggle with it, reevaluating their choices is crucial. The speaker also mentions the importance of addressing health issues related to diet and exercise, avoiding extremes and ensuring proper nutrition. In essence, living a balanced life means making choices that support your physical, mental, and spiritual health in the long term.

    • Find Balance in LifeAssess where you're out of balance, make conscious choices, and prioritize well-being to bring equilibrium into your life. Balance is key to living a healthy and fulfilling life.

      Excessive behaviors, whether related to substance use, food, shopping, or online activities, can negatively impact our physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Balance is key to living a healthy and fulfilling life, and it's essential to prioritize what truly matters to us and define what balance means for ourselves. By being honest with ourselves and assessing where we may be out of balance, we can make conscious choices to bring more equilibrium into our lives. Remember, too much of anything, including good things, can have negative consequences. So, strive for balance, prioritize your well-being, and focus on what truly matters to you.

    • Maintaining Balance in Your LifeRecognize imbalances, prioritize, make difficult choices, and take daily steps towards achieving balance in work, rest, responsibilities, and personal activities.

      Recognizing and addressing imbalances in your life is crucial for maintaining your mental health and well-being. It's easy to downplay or ignore these imbalances, but ultimately, it's important to confront them with self-awareness and consider what steps you can take to correct them. This may involve making difficult choices between prioritizing certain aspects of your life over others, and it may require daily effort and perseverance. Change can be challenging, but it's essential for long-term growth and harmony. Remember, balance doesn't just happen on its own – it requires active decision-making and prioritization. Whether it's finding equilibrium between work and play, rest and responsibilities, or indoor and outdoor activities, make balance a priority in your life and take small steps towards achieving it every day.

    • Maintain Balance in Life with FlexibilityConsistently practice self-care, set achievable goals, try new things, listen to body and mind, and avoid last-minute rushes for a balanced, fulfilling life.

      Achieving balance in life is crucial for overall satisfaction, but it doesn't mean living a monotonous existence. Consistency is important, but try new things to avoid feeling stuck in a routine. Listen to your body and mind, and be disciplined but flexible. Set goals with deadlines but allow for flexibility when necessary. Practice self-care regularly to maintain balance. Have fun, but be sensible to ensure long-term benefits. Avoid last-minute rushes and procrastination, as they can lead to unnecessary stress and poor quality work. By incorporating these tips into your daily life, you can create a balanced routine that promotes overall well-being and satisfaction.

    • Maintaining Balance for Better Mental HealthChoose moderation over excess, prioritize self-care, and make small daily decisions for balance to improve mental health and overall well-being.

      Balance is a crucial aspect of maintaining good mental health and well-being. It's important to recognize that balance is a choice we make in our daily lives, and it involves finding moderation and avoiding excess. Balance doesn't require sweeping changes overnight, but rather small decisions each day that align with our priorities. Saying yes or no appropriately, getting out and doing things while also being comfortable with saying no to take time for ourselves, and taking things one day at a time are all essential components of achieving balance. Remember, life is like riding a bicycle - to keep your balance, you must keep moving. By focusing on balance, we can create consistency in our lives and improve our overall mental health and well-being.

    Pride and LGBT mental health are interwoven, because it’s about learning to accept your identity and celebrating it both individually and collectively, especially with events like pride month, helping to improve LGBTQ mental health by promoting visibility and solidarity.

    Let's Talk About... Finding Balance (Episode 49)

    With all the craziness and upheaval that 2020 has sent our way, this seemed like a good time to talk about finding balance — even though I covered the topic back in Episode 14, there’s a lot more to be said about how to find balance for the benefit of your overall health and wellbeing. This week’s episode is the third in a series of four exploring the foundations of good mental health; in this episode, I’m talking about what balance is and what it isn’t, why it matters for good mental health, and how to incorporate more balance into your life for better mental health and wellbeing.

    social life, success, and sleep [video]
    [video available on Spotify] when i was in high school i was scrolling through instagram, and i stumbled upon a graphic of a triangle. at the end of each tip of the triangle there was a priority - sleep, success in work/school, and social life. on the bottom of the screen it said choose two. the concept was that you can’t prioritize everything in your life at the same time. for years of my life i’ve sort of lived with this instagram graphic in the back of my head. i’ve constantly reminded myself, something’s gotta give. i can’t prioritize everything i want to prioritize 100%. but recently i had an epiphany and thought, is this true? so today i want to explore this concept, because i think there’s a lot of value there, but it could use a little bit more nuance.  Learn more about your ad choices.
