Creating Balance
Creating Balance consists of eight chapters covering motivation, nutrition, planning/purchasing/preparation, exercise, stress, mindfulness, sleep, and goal setting. As you progress through the chapters, you begin to understand where you are and how, if needed, you can improve that aspect of your health. Most chapters have journal entries to help you reflect on that topic on ways you can improve based on where you are. For each individual, that will differ. Where you are may differ from other readers, and thats where you can customize this book for yourself. This book is not about perfection. Its about improvement, even if its the tiniest bit. That tiniest bit will help you in ways that you may not be able to see because there is no lab work, scale, or assessment. However, over time, those tiny changes become bigger and will make a positive impact on your health. We recommend that you complete this book one chapter at a time. You may think that youre doing well with one aspect of health, but after completing that chapter, you may be surprised to find that you have room to improve. Remember, we are all a work in progress, and Creating Balance gives you tools to simplify that effort. We hope you enjoy working on your health and creating healthy habits. We look forward to hearing your health success.

A satisfactory and healthy integration of work with other life domains is one of the key challenges of modern society. Work-life balance and work-life integration have become focal points of today’s human resource management practice and theory. Professionals who have been described as “extreme workers” regarding their work hours and engagement are under particular pressure to balance work and ”the rest of life”. This collection maps the increasingly extensive discussion of work-life issues for professionals and discusses key aspects in depth. What is work-life integration? What are the specific challenges for professionals? How do they manage their blurred work-life boundaries? How can companies intervene? Internationally leading authors discuss antecedents and individual and organizational outcomes of work-life integration, gender-specific perspectives and challenges as well as the use and usefulness of corporate work-life balance initiatives. In five sections distinguished researchers from across the world present experiences and research findings to provide a compendium of academic and applied research on the work-life integration of professionals. Cutting-edge research and novel theoretical perspectives make this collection a source of knowledge and inspiration for academic and business audiences interested in work-life integration issues in general and in the case of professionals in particular.
