Improving Your Work/Life Balance

By Sorin Dumitrascu

People with a healthy work/life balance are satisfied with their work and home lives and can fulfill their multiple responsibilities at home, work, and in the community without guilt or regret. They're healthy physically, emotionally, and socially, have a sense of control over their life, and feel that the decisions they make are informed choices as opposed to forced sacrifices. In this course, you'll learn about how to detect imbalances between home and work and how to achieve a healthy work/life balance.

If you're one of the lucky people who has achieved a good work/life balance, you know you can't just rest on your laurels. Maintaining that balance takes constant vigilance. You still need to defend yourself from any potential threats – that is, demands from other people, new responsibilities, and other changes that may affect your life balance. In this course you'll learn about simplifying your life to maintain balance, communicating assertively to set your limits, and reframing expectations to maintain balance.

Stress is an inevitable part of work life. Looming deadlines, personality conflicts, and ever-expanding to-do lists are often out of your control and can end up leaving you burned out. But you can control your reaction to the causes of stress. In this course, you'll learn about the health impacts of stress, the characteristics of burnout, as well as ways of coping with stress. You'll also explore a model for identifying and managing irrational thoughts related to stressful events.
