Work-Life Integration for Optimal Productivity and Well Being
Posted in balance, executive coaching, executive coaching, leadership coaching, leadership coaching, work-life integration, tagged #executivecoaching, #leadershipcoaching, #work-lifeintegration on May 21, 2018| Leave a Comment »
Integrating work and life works efficiently with fast-paced technology, especially for millennials who are adapting well to this reality. The phrase “work-life integration” is blending what you do professionally and personally in order to make both happen. The trending shift (away from work-life flexibility and balance) has happened as fast as the development and speed of technology. Some may be finding it difficult to step away from the work-life balance they have worked so hard to attain.
There are several reasons why mastering work-life integration is so essential right now, as well as maintaining personal balance- the kind where you can stand on one foot and not fall down! The balance need not be equal pieces of “the wheel of life” and compromises can be made without sabotaging wellbeing, happy family life and relationships. Keeping a flexible calendar and writing in exercise-gym time, family time etc. can be helpful in the juggling and maintaining balance. Taking meaningful time away from work, whether it be a few hours a day, a weekend or a few days and more vacation can be wonderfully recharging. Below are a few reasons work-life integration or a variation of it are necessary. Tips towards achieving work-life balance and maintaining personal balance are enumerated below that.
- A recent study by the Association for Women in Science (AWIS) found that more than 50% of workers say that work conflicts with life responsibilities at least two or three times per week. Due to this, about 40% of women have delayed having children.
- Working remotely is easier than ever! However, this can make it more difficult to separate work and life, creating a natural integration.
It’s important to honor your own bio-rhythms so that you do work when you believe you can perform the best and do personal activities to break up your day. This is one way you can integrate work and life so that you remain sane and are able to accomplish (almost) everything you want to do from a personal and professional perspective. Taking “joy” and exercise-stretch breaks throughout the day clears your mind, stretches muscles and ups the endorphins (feeling good hormones) and creativity factor.
Keeping a flexible calendar and scheduling things like going to the gym, writing articles, reading, meetings, research at around the same time each day can be helpful to get into habits and have more control over what you’re doing and when.
Whether the problem is too much focus on work or too little, when your work life and your personal life feel out of balance, often times stress, along with its harmful effects, is the result. The good news is that most can take control of stress levels by giving yourself the time to do the things that are most important to you. When life literally is beginning to feel “out of control” or “lopsided” and you feel off kilter, give yourself the gift of time to restore balance. Consider disconnecting as much as necessary for stress reduction and the restoration of balance. Here are some tips to do throughout the day:
- Take Cleansing Breaths: Three sets of deep inhalations through the nose (belly rising) and exhaling through the nose, (abdomen deflating) can (temporarily) change your physiology.
- Stretch: Release/reduce tension and increase energy. Moving Meditation® Fitness Program
- Walk: A five minute walk outside can change your mood and mindset.
- Listen to Music: A mood changer.
- Eat Peacefully: This aids the digestion and gives you “time away”. Leave your office!
- Allow Time: Give yourself extra time for the unexpected.
- Smile and Laugh: Humor has been proven effective in reducing stress.
- Take a mini-vacation: Disconnect for a few hours.

Ready to Keep Soaring? then STOP WORRYING!!!
Did you know that
40% of worrying is about things that will never happen
30% of worrying is over things that can’t be changed
10% of worrying is over health (which only gets worse when you worry)
We spend 92% of our time and energy worrying about things that:
1. We have no control over
2. We can’t possibly change
3. Have misperceived
Make a list of things you worry about. Divide your list into categories listed at the top of this outline. How do you want to redirect your focus? VISUALIZE THIS!
What would happen if we channeled this energy and effort constructively rather than adding “fuel to the fire”? Worrying is like steeping on the gas pedal while the car is in neutral: we create a lot of noise, use energy and don’t go anywhere! EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques/ Meridian Tapping) works extraordinarily well to overcome anxiety, fear and worry. more.. http://www.balanceandpower.com/eft.php

Can You Disconnect?
Posted in balance, happy, health, Uncategorized, work-life balance, work-life integration, tagged connect to nature, family, health, work- life balance, work-life integration, workweek on February 16, 2013| 3 Comments »
Can you disconnect from technology, from work related stuff for an hour, a half day, weekend, week? We must usually plan to do that. It’s not always easy to make happen.
It’s good for our health, and often gives us the opportunity to reconnect with nature, with family, and to our inner quiet. Fun can go into that equation too!
I’m not talking about the four hour workweek here- just a few hours or longer.
Try it and enjoy- without guilt:)
