STEP 3: REST In today's world, we're all really busy – filling every moment with checking emails, taking phone calls, meeting up with business colleagues and friends. To truly balance your life, it's vital you rest yourself – this is ideal for both your mind and body. You can try simple meditations at home, or just resting in a park looking at the clouds – even a few minutes will suffice.
