What is a Wellness Coach?
A Wellness Coach can best be described as a Partner in Change. Setting goals may be easy, but finding the best pathways to achieve them isn’t. A strong wellness coach is trained to help you identify your true goals, develop a plan to get there, and help you move through the process in a smooth manner, overcoming the hurdles of everyday life that often stand in the way of success.
Wellness coaching packages can include on site visits, phone conferences, and online support. It may include a fitness action plan or time in the gym together. There’s no generic formula for success. Spending time learning healthy cooking tips only works if you eat at home! If your travel or work schedule doesn’t allow it (or maybe you just don’t want to spend time in the kitchen), we can focus on taking charge of the restaurant menu. Wherever life takes you, education and planning are key to taking charge.
Who benefits from wellness coaching?
1. Clients that are in the action stage of change are able to benefit from wellness coaching. If unable to make the commitment, the relationship is premature and will falter.
2. Clients that can visualize a healthier lifestyle can see past temporary stumbling blocks with the support of a coach.
3. Clients that understand coaching creates a partnership requiring honesty, feedback, and commitment.
4. Clients and coaches that speak the same language will succeed. A strong, demanding coach might be extremely effective for one individual, but create high anxiety for another. Coaches should use their assessment tools to determine the most favorable coaching style.
5. Celebrating incremental successes with a client should be as joy filled for a coach as it is for the client. After all, that’s what perfect partners do!
