What is Health Coaching?

Health coaching is a relatively new profession here in the UK. As a health coach I believe that each person is unique and that everything in the body is interconnected. Our body’s natural default state is one of wellness. But being surrounded by so much temptation, living in highly stressful environments, eating food that is highly processed, full of sugar, artificial colouring, preservatives, etc. No wonder our bodies cannot function in a state of wellness. It is not just about food.

As a health coach it is my job to help each client find what works best for them. Each session is client-led and it is a collaborative process where the coach and client partner together to improve the clients health. My aim is to help individuals to implement the required lifestyle and behavioral changes they need. I follow an holistic approach to support, educate, empower, and motivate each client to find simple & effective ways to improve their health, break through resistance and to overcome self-sabotage. It is my aim to help each client to become experts on their own health, taking back control over their health and to improve their whole-health and wellness!

Benefits of having a Health Coach:

  • A health coach will meet you where you are at, without any expectation, judgement, or prejudice.
  • A health coach will help you to do what you need to do in order to improve the quality of your life from the inside out.
  • A health coach will help you to discover fundamental imbalances in the body.
  • A health coach will help you to discover how to address those imbalances and help you to bring your body back into balance.
  • A health coach bridges the gap between wellness professionals and their patients.
  • A health coach goes beyond the “what” (such as wanting to cook more at home) and help explore the “why” (what are the barriers to cooking more at home?)
  • A health coach can help you explore and identify these barriers so you can work together to formulate an individualized plan for how to work around them.
  • In addition to nutrition and lifestyle measures, a health coach also considers the way one’s work and home routines, personal relationships, and employment satisfaction, as well as emotional and spiritual health can shape an individual’s sense of well-being.
  • A health coach will keep you accountable and help you to prioritize your health goals and to achieve them !!
