Improve Your Health Through Life Coaching

Coaching is a profession that is designed to meet the needs of people who want to improve their life satisfaction in several life categories such as: family, career, emotional, physical, spiritual, financial, and relationships.  When it comes to living a healthy lifestyle, it is more than what you eat and how you exercise. How well you sleep, how well you handle stress and your emotional wellbeing impacts the quality of your health.

Assessment: Assess your need for a life coach by answering the following questions:

•       Have you received good health tips and advice that you find difficult follow?
•       Has your doctor recommended a lifestyle that you find to be unattainable?
•       Have you set weight loss goals and found that you cannot achieve it alone?
•       Do you feel that your life is out of balance?
•       Do you make statements like my plate is too full to exercise or eat healthy?

If you have answered yes to two or more of these questions, you could benefit greatly from a coaching relationship.
