In today’s fast-paced world, we can easily spend as much time working as we do with friends and family. It’s easy to see the importance of a workplace that contributes to a healthy work-life balance. Maintaining a healthy balance is not only important for our personal health and relationships, it also improves happiness and the efficiency of our work performance.
Three amazing reasons we embrace work-life-balance:
1We become less susceptible to stress
Occasional stress is normal for every job, burnouts are certainly not. Burnouts occur “when you feel overwhelmed and unable to meet constant demands”. The negative effects of a burnout can impact every area of your life, including your personal and social life. Work-life balance is important as it allows you to separate work and home, meaning that the stress of work should stay at work, and not follow you outside of office hours. Allowing work stress to infiltrate your home life is one of the primary indicators that you are not achieving a work life balance. If this is happening to you, take the time to talk this over with your manager, or come up with a plan to avoid a burnout as a result of your professional demands.
2Attention is paid where due
With a balance between work and home, comes greater control of where your focus remains. If you leave your work at the office, your full attention will be on your home life and giving your relationships the attention in which they deserve. When spending time with your partner, children or friends, your mind should be solely focused on the experience you are having, rather than thinking of work concurrently. Similarly, if you are in the office, greater focus should be paid on the tasks at hand. In turn, this makes you a more efficient worker, and demonstrates one of the many benefits of achieving a work life balance.
3We experience fewer health problems
It’s no secret that when we are run down, tired or stressed; our immune system is the one to suffer. Stress can cause a variety of symptoms and can affect your overall health and well-being, from less serious conditions such as the flu, to more serious health issues such as respiratory or digestive problems. Either way, the fact that stress can impact your health so much is even more of a reason as to why maintaining a healthy work life balance is important. Taking the time to look after yourself by exercising, eating well and relaxing can contribute to limiting your health problems and make you a more efficient worker during business hours.
