As we head into the holidays, life may feel a bit more hectic and full. Take a look at Artizen Coaching owner and life coach Jennifer Lee’s recent TV appearance on The View From The Bay for five simple tips to achieve more balance. Although the segment is targeted toward busy moms, the suggestions apply to anyone feeling overwhelmed by all they have going on.

At the very end, Jennifer showcased the Unfolding Your Life Vision Kit, a personal, portable work of art and visual affirmation of your values, goals and dreams.

Here are some of Jennifer’s tips for achieving more balance in your life:

1. Say yes to something for you and no to something for someone else.
Moms are so used to doing thing for other people. So first, do something you’ve been wanting to do for yourself but haven’t had time for. To make room for that, say no to an outside obligation.

2. Ask for help – make at least one request of someone today.
You can’t do everything all by yourself, so delegate a task to a family member, friend or colleague. Often times they want to help, but they need guidance.

3. Have a quiet place to recharge. Create your own personal sanctuary.
Have a space in a quiet room just for you and decorate it with candles or inspiring quote. Spend at least five minutes a day here to center yourself.

4. Change the channel. Gain a fresh perspective that will support you.
Instead of focusing on what’s going wrong in the world, choose a new outlook that helps you move forward and stay positive and grounded.

5. Have a compelling vision for your balanced life. Make a portable vision board and carry it with you in your purse.
When you’re clear about the life you want, it’s easier to take action in alignment with that vision.
