Synopsis

A recent work/life study by MANAGEMENT TODAY revealed that almost half of Britain's managers feel too mentally and physically exhausted to do anything other than work and sleep, and nearly a third say their lives are out of control. Around half of the people questioned said they would switch jobs tomorrow for a better quality of life. Is it the way we work today that is causing this phenomenon or are we just not handling our lives as well as we could? THE BALANCING ACT offers the WHY, WHAT and HOW of getting more balance in our lives. It gets to the root of WHY we're out of balance, drawing on Fiona's own theories and interpretation of psychology, social trends and observations of the corporate world and says WHAT we can do about it. With original ideas to inspire us towards a new way of thinking, THE BALANCING ACT suggests HOW we can change our lives in easy steps. Written in a language clearly at one with the fast pace and issues faced at work today, this is a coaching book on how to get more balance in your life...your way, your style, your time.

Revue de presse

'Most of what's written about finding a balance between our work and personal life is rubbish...Fiona Parashar's THE BALANCING ACT, however, offers advice that is far more incisive and practical. It's also reassuring....THE BALANCING ACT could be just the antidote to those monochrome blues' GOOD HOUSEKEEPING
'In these times of over-work and under-enjoyment, The Balancing Act mercifully takes us by the hand and tenderly shows us how to create a more fulfilling life. I highly recommend this book.'Susan Jeffers, author of Feel the Fear and Do it Anyway
Terrific . . . if you are looking for balance in your life, then Fiona Parashar has found the way.
[Lynne Franks, entrepreneur and author of The Seed Handbook]
