It's so easy to fall into the trap of saying "yes" when we really don't want to do something. Then we resent it, get bitter, and it can turn out to be a bad experience! I guess the trick is finding a healthy balance between helping others out when they need it (saying "yes"), and keeping ourselves healthy and energized. Thanks for this article on balancing your life, Gini! And Nancy -- thanks for commenting, and I hope you're successful in reducing the stress in your life. Life's too short to waste it being stressed. Laurie My favorite is #5: creating healthy boundaries. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of saying “yes” when we really don’t want to do something.

That's great you are on the path to making changes in your life - sometimes it does take strong signals from the body (like hair loss) to get the message and get on track, but once you do, it's so worth it. Yes, yes, yes to you and your process! Gini You’re welcome Nancy, and thanks for your feedback.

I like the one about "The more you say yes to yourself and no to the people and activites that drain you, the more balanced your life will become." I've been trying to reduce the stress in my life because it got so bad that my thick hair is starting to fall out, I'm so stressed, so I'm making drastic changes for my own health. Thanks.
