What are the things in life you value most?

Life's too short to spend every minute of it working. When you're old and looking back on your life, what kind of memories do you want to have? 0Memories of your computer screen and office? 0Well, today I'm going to give you a few tips on how to make your life that little bit more special. First of all, let's deal with the work part of the work life balance.

I want you to close your eyes and visualize where you work: your office, your work space. 0Is it big or small? 0How much space do you, personally, have in this area? 0Of course having a comfortable workspace is important, with an ergonomic chair and keyboard, but let's think outside the box a little. What about adding some color to your office- nice pictures, photos, plants and what about something that smells nice - flowers, for example, or potpourri.

All these things stimulate the senses and help you feel calm and relaxed. 0And when it all gets too much, go outside! Have lunch in the park or take a twenty minute walk along a quiet tree lined street. 0Now, let's go home. Close your eyes and imagine you are opening the front door of your house or apartment.

Where is the furniture situated? Where are the windows? What does the energy of the room feel like? Try arranging your house according to the principles of feng shui. In feng shui, the kitchen is the heart of the home, the room of fire and nurture.


Red is the best color. Be careful with your bathroom as it can drain away energy. Blue is a good color for the bathroom. But the bedroom, as it is the place to rest and relax is the most important. Take the TV and computer out, open the window to let in fresh air, light candles at night to help you relax and make the bed the most important piece of furniture in the room.


Skin colors are the best colors for your bedroom - white, light brown, dark brown. And finally, you. 0Find ways to keep your body and your mind healthy and relaxed. These things are generally common sense, but life can be so busy and stressful it's easy to forget all about them. Spend time with friends.


Make new ones. 0Eat well. 0Exercise. 0Take up a new hobby. 0Smile more!


And, perhaps most importantly do good. 0Give your seat on the bus to a mom with a small child. 0Help an old lady across the road. 0It's amazing how good it makes you feel! 现在，倒数3下，深呼吸，想象一下全新的、更加愉快、轻松的生活。
