Hi Anastasiya! Thank you so much for linking to my article “The inconvenient truth about raising kids!” I’m honored to be among your list as many writer’s I already follow and admire. There is so much here to read and learn from. I know where I’ll be coming back to over the next few days!! Have a great week
Hi Anastasiya, what a wonderful list! This one’s for bookmarking for sure. I love list posts myself and I know this one took a lot of work.
Thanks for your dedication to teaching us about balance and for linking to me.
Anastasiya, I love the way you have broken this down into different areas.
What a complete and balanced list. I shall certainly be book markting this post and coming back to it many times. Out of many such lists that I have seen, this is by far the best and most comprehensive.
My friend, you have set yourself a very high standard to follow:-)
What an amazing list! Thanks so much for posting this!
Anastasiya I am honored that you not only listed one of my posts, but 3 of them! I’m really glad you got that much meaning out of them. I hope other people will feel the same way.
Wow Anastasiya, you covered about every conceivable aspect of life I can think of. What a wonderful resource you’ve created here, I’m totally impressed.
By doing such a thorough job you remind us of a very important point: Life needs to be balanced. We can’t afford to focus so intently on one or two aspects of life that we neglect the others. If we do, the neglected areas will eventually demand the lion’s share of our energy.
Balance may require constant adjustment, but it really is the key to a happy, long, healthy, and meaningful life. Thanks for all the work you put into this.
This is an awesome resource! Great post!
I just came upon your site recently and have really been enjoying reading through your posts. I love this list! The fact that it incorporates so many different aspects of a balanced life is wonderful. Often, people look at balance in a very limited way (balance between work and home life, for instance). But balance in life is inclusive of everything that comes together to create a fulfilling life. Your take on this is refreshing. Thank you!
Very nice compilation … I like both your categories and your hand-picked posts.
Wow, you’ve done a brilliant job with this Anastasiya, it must have taken you ages to compile this.
You should get everyone’s permission and turn these posts into a book and put it up on Amazon as these posts are great.
Thanks you so much for linking to a few of my articles as well I really appreciate it.
You have my permission!
This is a great list and thanks for taking the time to build it. It sure took you many hours, not even considering the time to read all those articles! Also thanks for including my post. Have a great day!
Hi Ana,
Well, this makes me love you and your blog even more

Anastasiya, WOW- is all I can say! What a list! I am honored to be included. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the list. I’m going to read it ALL!
Anastasya, this is absolutely great! I don’t know what time you spent on compiling this but you did a fantastic job. So many wonderful bloggers I already know are in it and I’m honored and humbled to be in such a fantastic company.
Thank you
Hey Anastasiya! What a wonderful listing – lots of very valuable resources here that are compiled in a central book, thanks to you! Thanks a lot for listing my article on how to deal with critical people (http://personalexcellence.co/blog/2010/02/8-helpful-ways-to-deal-with-critical-people/) – Hopefully the readers find it helpful as they manage the critical/difficult people in their life. Keep up the great work on your blog!
Hello Anastasiya,
Vow! What a remarkable job to include all the important links in one place. I have bookmarked this page.
Thanks,
Cheryl
Thank you all for your comments!
The list did take a long time and my husband was stuck with the babies for the whole day yesterday but I enjoyed compiling this list. This is my best of the best and I wanted to share all these wonderful articles with my readers.
This is an inspired idea! Thanks for sharing all of these great links and thank-you for including some of my posts!
What an amazing list! I am saving that on delicious and shared on Twitter and Facebook because this is a MUST see post for everyone. Thanks for putting that together!
Thank you so much for putting the time and energy into creating such
an awesome list.
It’s going to take a while to read through all these articles.
Peace, love and chocolate

Hi Anastasiya,
So far my favorite on this list is “7 Irrational Thoughts That Disrupt Your Life” by Steve Aitchison: http://www.stevenaitchison.co.uk/blog/2009/04/17/7-irrational-thoughts-that-disrupt-your-life/ I’m a subscriber to his blog, but I never delved too deep in the archives, so thank you for that!
Karol
You are welcome Karol,
when I started compiling this post I was amazed at how many wonderful articles are buried deep down in archives. I am glad that you have found some useful posts for yourself in my list
You have some great and inspirational links provided. Thanks and I enjoy your site. Thank Leo Babauta for guiding me your way.

I thanked him a lot already. Leo is awesome!
And thank you for stopping by
Thanks for the hard work! I look forward to reading many of these posts. I saw that Steve Aitchinson suggested that you put these into book form. I had the same thought for you. Keep up the great work. God bless you!
Hi Anastasiya,
I’m honored too that you’ve included me, thank you
I really enjoy reading your post and personality! You’ve got a wonderful way of writing.
Let’s keep in touch.

What a wonderful list! Already as I glance through it, I see some of my favorites, and even more that probably will become so.
The only thing I see that might be missing (and then only because I gain so much from it) are the lessons we can be taught by spending time in nature, especially in solitude.
Annie
Hi Annie, thank you for your wonderful comment.
I am a big fan of nature too and this is the best way for me to regain clarity and energy. I didn’t forget those posts. It might be difficult to understand it from the title but #40 and #21 are actually about nature. Another one of my posts that I didn’t include in the list though is A Simple Way to Nourish Your Body and Soul without Spending a Dime.
I hope you’ll enjoy these posts if you love nature
