Health Coaching

PictureHey Ya’ll! Sorry I am late with this next post, life happens and frankly I just wasn’t ready to publish this one until now.

As a health and wellness professional I see individuals struggle with their health every day, heck even I struggle. I will admit that I am far from perfect and I am still working to accomplish my goals. We live in a society where the 40-50 hour work week, a kid, a dirty house, a husband who travels for work, animals, church and family exists. This is just my normal week, I know there are many of you out there can compile on to that list. Who has time to add cooking healthy meals and regular exercise? I am currently counting my water intake but doing this while at work poses as a difficult task as I lose track of time and my glass for that matter.

Everyone needs a support system, someone to encourage and build them up.  Many people elicit help from a health coach. A health coach is person who is educated in health and wellness and is able to assist others in making healthy life choices. You might be wondering how this works and what you can expect.

  • Wellness vision
              - This vision how you see yourself at your most healthy.
                     *Nutrition, fitness, mental and spiritual.
  • Creating effective goals

             - Define each goal
                    *Nutrition, fitness, mental and spiritual
             - Find a personal motive to help you succeed
                    *Kids, longevity, appearance, self-esteem, etc.
             - Determine obstacles that you will need to over come
                    *Work schedule, kids schedule, health problems, lack of motivation, etc
             - Determine your personal strengths to build from
                    *Perfectionist, schedules, flexibility, able to stick to a plan, etc.

  • Re-evaluation
             - Keeping documentation of process
                    *Journal, planner, daily emails, etc.
             - Evaluate process together regularly
                    *Email regularly with health coach

These three steps is what I use as a health coach to ensure success. Working together on a regular basis will build a support system that most everyone needs. I am offering my readers a free month of coaching so you are able to get a started before the New Year and see if this works for you. Please sign up below and I will email you within 24 hours.

Have a wonderful and blessed week!
