Balance is a way of living.

The way we live our lives in these modern times, especially in big cities, is far from the harmonious way we were meant to live.

This hectic and rushed lifestyle is the main cause for the way we feel, for our stress and our over the roof anxiety levels.

But most people live like this because they don’t know any better. You can live in modern times, accomplish your goals, and still live a balanced life.

And it’s not that hard. It’s not even a drastic change. You just need to implement some essential habits in your every day.

They don’t take more than 15 minutes each. And you can spread them throughout your day. Adding them together will improve your whole.

The 4 Essential 15 Minute Habits To Live A Balanced Life:

1. Meditate at least 15 minutes.

When you go through out your day it’s really easy to lose your mind in trivial worries and unnecessary stress. Meditation is your mini vacation from this. After you come home from work, or right after you exercise, meditate for 15 minutes.

2. Laugh for at least 15 minutes per day in total.

If you don’t laugh at least once per day, than what the hell are you doing? Most people think laughter should be given only to the funniest of jokes and in the happiest of times. Lower your bar. Laughter is free. Laugh as much as you can, daily.

3. Exercise at least 15 minutes.

Exercise is seen as a hard task that you need a lot of time for. But an exercise can be a simple walk with a slightly faster pace than usual. Try to exercise every day, ideally in the mornings, for at least 15 minutes. Walk, run, do simple exercises.

4. Plan for tomorrow for 15 minutes.

When you have couple of goals for tomorrow and a plan of how to execute them, you have a clearer idea of how your day will go. This takes a lot of stress from your back. You can plan, organize and do things in advance so you do everything on time.
