Today, September 22, 2026, is the fall equinox.
We have equal amounts of daylight and night as the sun crosses directly over the equator.
A day of balance.
Even though nothing in our lives is truly in balance, it can feel more, or less, balanced.
Today, you could leverage the theme and consider your life.
Wellbeing Balance
My recommendation is to spend time considering each of the 8 dimensions of wellbeing.
Physical. Emotional. Spiritual. Occupational. Intellectual. Financial. Social. Environmental.
For each of the eight dimensions, ask yourself:
Am I giving this too little, about right, or too much of my attention right now?
After you have your responses, you can consider if the those that are too much or too little are because of intentional imbalance or drifted imbalance.
This will highlight if you are focused on what matters for this season of your life.
Attention Balance
After considering where you are on each dimension of wellbeing, you could shift the lens to where you are spending your time, money, and energy.
Asking the question:
Is the allocation of my time, money, & energy a reflection of what matters most right now?
Summary
The equinox is a great day to take advantage of the theme of balance.
You can use one of these exercises or choose a question of your own to reflect on the balance in your life and what is right for you in the season ahead.
