A wellness coach will focus on your entire being by taking a holistic approach, meaning there is a focus on your physical, nutritional, emotional, behavioral, and lifestyle factors necessary for general health and well-being. The coach will work one-on-one with you and understand how to apply the science of behavior modification.
For the relationship between the wellness coach and you to succeed, there must be a connection built on mutual respect and trust. The coach demonstrates an understanding of the psychological, behavioral, and emotional needs and characteristics of you as an individual. Then, using open communication and active listening, a unique fitness personality tailored for you is developed.
You will learn to think differently by eliminating negative beliefs and thoughts and replacing them with positive self-talk. For example, you learn to replace “I can’t do this” with “It may be hard, but I know I can do this.”
A wellness coach ultimately wants you to become self-reliant by teaching you to motivate yourself to successfully adopt and maintain healthier habits. A wellness coach teaches you the methods and gives you the tools you need to continue applying what you learn to every aspect of your life to continue achieving your goals.
The coach helps you learn to make your new healthy habits a permanent lifestyle change. You will understand the benefits of reaching your health goals, empowering you to own the positive changes you have made and can continue to make, to improve your life.
