WHAT IS HEALTH COACHING?

Curious about what health coaching is and how it could make a difference in your life?  Here are a few reasons people choose to work with a health coach:

1) I will teach you holistic and natural methods for healing and wellness

If you are tired of going to the doctor for everything that is bothering you only to be given another medication, I may be able to help you learn alternative methods for healing and wellness. Health coaches are trained to look at the body from a holistic point of view, to find patterns and connections in various imbalances.  We look to food as a form of medicine, and think about ways your nutrition can help heal you.  We also think about other aspects in your life that could be contributing to your overall health, and ways to find balance throughout these aspects.  This includes everything from career, to relationships, to physical activity, spirituality, stress, and more.  

2) It's personal and catered to your individual needs

Health coaches don't follow a one size fits all approach.  We listen to your specific concerns as well as health goals, and craft a wellness plan together with your individualized goals and needs in mind.  Health coaches are trained to actively listen.  That means we won't be focusing on a million other things or thinking about the next client while speaking with you.  Instead, we focus on the present with you at the center, and that's what helps us coach you to reach your goals.  This leads to the best chances of success for you because our recommendations are catered to you, not the textbook definition of what you are/should be.

3) I help you to set realistic goals

One of the biggest challenges we often face as individuals is setting realistic goals and then striving each day to meet and surpass them.  With a health coach on your side, not only will you be able to set goals to help you become the best that you can be, but those goals will be attainable because they will work within your lifestyle.  Your health coach is a partner who helps you first define your goals, then create a step by step guide to reaching those goals, all the while holding you accountable.
