Hi Ashley,
I find the inertia or momentum of moments during the day keep me in activities that don't allow me to be "selfish".  It's not as easy as I wish it would be, since I have to juggle caregiving, and the demands can be unexpected.  Being isolated isn't helpful too.  Today for example, I went to the gym, and didn't recognize anyone, so I was silent from departing at 11am to 1:30 pm.

It sounds like balance would add a lot to your life.
 
What's stopping you from adding balance into your life now?
 
How could you add more of it?

Hi Ashley,
I think it would level my mood swings, and energize me, so I could live a more satisfying life.  The wait at the doc's office was 2 1/2 hours, but it actually seemed enjoyable.  Each day seems to be long and dreary, though

While at a doctor’s office, television monitors interleaved comedic clips with medical information, and it lead me to realize how important “balance” is in my day,week and month to maintain my health. I wonder if others have successfully built in leisure, since I find i’m more vulnerable to setbacks if I’m stressed from not resting.
