A Brief Overview Of Personal Wellness Coaching

By Krystal Branch


It is ironic that so many people, whilst enjoying one of the highest standards of living the world has seen struggle to make sense out of their own lives. Many people feel unfulfilled and while they desire internal growth and change, they do not know how to go about it. This is perhaps one of the main reasons why personal wellness coaching has become so popular.

There are numerous factors that can have an influence on the happiness and fulfillment of an individual or even a family. In many cases, people are aware of the fact that they are not personally fulfilled or content, but they are unable to pinpoint the reason for their own discontent. A professional can help them analyze their own needs and desires and only then can progress be made.

No two people have identical needs. The main role of the individual instructor, therefore, is to help people to analyze their own lives, their individual desires and their private ambitions. Once this is done realistic plans and programs can be devised that will help the client to experience the growth they yearn to achieve. The instructor will also make sure that the goals set by the client are realistic and that they can be achieved.

It is interesting to note that the majority of experts in this field start off with a fitness program. They argue that physical health and fitness form the basis for psychological and emotional stability and even happiness. Fit people are more motivated, they eat better, they sleep better and they have much more energy than those that are overweight and unfit.

It requires both time and patience to find the ideal coach. A coach that is of very high value to one client may not be suitable for another. It is therefore advisable to look for somebody that has dealt with a variety of other clients and that is able to provide valid references. For the best results, it is important that there is a relationship of trust between the coach and the client.

No coach can perform miracles. Too many people think that the coach should be responsible for the success of the program and this is simply not the case. The client remains responsible for his or her own growth. The role of the coach is to encourage, to motivate and to measure progress. Anyone looking for instant success is guaranteed to be disappointed.

Hiring an individual coach can be an expensive business. However, those that desire some help may also turn to their churches or social groups, many of which offer a variety of self enrichment programs. Another option is to join a group of people with similar goals. It is even possible to hire a coach for an initial period only or on an intermittent basis.

Personal wellness coaching can certainly help individuals to identify their individual needs and to embark upon a process that will lead to self fulfillment, increased health and even fitness. By using a professional the chances of success are greatly increased. However, it is vital to remember that the instructor cannot take responsibility for achieving anything on behalf of the client.
