Understanding How Change Shows Up in Our Daily Lives

It is an interesting conundrum in life that every day we can witness the changes in our lives and all around and yet we are given so much encouragement externally and internally to keep things the same. We often feel dismayed or worry about change even though we know that change is inevitable. Very many people live in fear of change and actually miss the very beautiful aspects of being alive by an increasingly powerful emotion of fear and anxiety. Whatever the source, this can often hamper or cloud judgement in making wise decisions and choices and create a reactive way of living that also damages our happiness and wellbeing. I have found in life that if we can recall the value of balance and, in my experience, the acronym to be always loving and naturally calm everywhere, we can encourage a sense of being, of having a sense of joy and gratitude and creative thinking or fulfilment. Such self empowerment can soothe our entire environment, our selves and all around.

The Role of Balance and the Purna Health Handbook

The Purna Health Handbook has balance at the core of its approach and can assist us all, regardless of age, stage, gender, origin or belief, to develop an individual framework or structure that can enhance our journey through life. There are of course countless guidelines and hints and tips available in today’s world to improve our experience of wellbeing and to assist with anxiety. Yet every day not only do we notice in ourselves but also in others considerable strain or anxiety or mood swings, including anger. This can become a damaging way of life that, in turn, harms our entire being, physical, mental and spiritual. Whereas many deny any thoughts of our life source, purpose or meaning I would suggest that this is fundamental to a happy, healthy life and an ability to manage life’s changes as we go through the time that represents our life.

Navigating Midlife Changes for Women and Men

For women and for men the changes of life around middle age can involve all encompassing impacts. The menopause is a physiological process whereby ovarian function declines with age. This generally leads to menopausal effects including declining fertility, psychological symptoms due to oestrogen deficiency, aching joints and muscles, hot flushes, loss of libido and low mood. Similarly men can experience what is often termed a manopause that can create crisis in many ways, damaging their life, relationships and future quality of living unnecessarily. As a general rule the period from after 40 years of age can present a time of crisis mentally and physically and presents a critical opportunity to manage life with responsibility and balance that is sustainable throughout one’s life. Through our workshops, sessions and consulting at Balanced Lives we delve deeper into managing this time of change. We offer individual guidance to empower and to enable a framework to support the individual at this time and at other different stages. We have developed our approach through the valuable resources found in the Purna Health Handbook and our mission is assist the individual to enjoy a happy, healthy and fulfilling life.

Finding a Positive Way Forward Through Life’s Changes

There is no doubt that we can find ways of being and thinking that enable a sense of understanding and the ability to look forward to the changes in life positively. Through various practices, self discipline and self discovery we can realise our potential and achieve the fulfilment that we may seek. For more information please contact us by email.
