This month, Life & Progress explores why work-life balance is so important, how it improves our lives, and how it can boost our mental wellbeing each day:

In our fast-paced world, finding balance between work and life is crucial. Just like we enjoyed longer and warmer days in the summer, being outdoors and away from any screens, striking the right balance between our jobs and personal time is essential.

Balancing work and life isn't just about relaxing; it's about taking care of our wellbeing.

Achieving the right work-life balance helps us refresh our minds and bodies. Whether it's a peaceful walk in the park or some exercise, finding this balance is vital for our mental and physical health.

Improving work-life balance is crucial for a happier and healthier life. To get the right balance, start by setting clear boundaries between work and personal time.

Establish specific work hours and resist the urge to check emails or take work calls outside those hours.

Prioritise self-care by dedicating time to exercise, relaxation, and hobbies you enjoy. Learning to say no when necessary and delegating tasks at work can also help manage your workload effectively.

Taking regular breaks during the day will also allow you to rest and recharge your batteries. If you need extra support, make sure to talk to your employer, or your loved ones.

Make sure to reflect on your work-life balance regularly, making any adjustments as needed. Finding the right combination is different for everyone, but will help you stay balanced and focused.

If you need any further support with your work-life balance, whether you're feeling stressed or anxious, the Tenant Support & Wellbeing Service (TSWS) is here for you.

With qualified advice and guidance, Life & Progress can help you get a balance which works for you.
