Why Health Coaching?
Research from the UKIHCA (UK and International Health Coaching Association) stats that 88% of us understand that lifestyle is the main cause of chronic disease in the UK and we want to know how to take control of our health, yet only 18.5% of us feel confident of taking control of our health on our own.
The research shows that we want better health, but we're overwhelmed with information about what we 'should' be doing about our diets and lifestyle.
The questions I hear most often are; Where do I start? How do I start? How do I keep going?
93% of us feel it would be easier to make positive lifestyle change with the support of a health coach and 88% of people who used a health coach had a positive experience.
The research is clear - working with a health coach makes it much easier to make lifestyle changes and is a positive experience.
What exactly is health coaching?
Health coaching is a partnership between a coach who understands how human behaviour impacts motivation and health and a client who wants to make a change. Health coaches use their expertise to help their clients set and achieve goals and build new habits. Simply put, they’re “change agents.” They offer the right kind of support to help clients make lifestyle and behaviour changes that are critical to achieving their health and lifestyle goals.
This is done by..
✓ Helping you discover the “why” behind their desired health change
✓ Empowering you as the expert of your own body, mind, and circumstances
✓ Helping you identify challenges and blind spots that are preventing positive change
✓ Providing support and accountability
✓ Using my broad knowledge of health and wellness to help people navigate a variety of health concerns
Health coaches work with their clients using a collaborative approach; they don’t lecture their clients or prescribe treatments to them. Instead, they act as partners or guides. They facilitate the change process and support their clients as they create their own plans and strive for their health goals. Usingr this model, the client takes on the role of the expert—after all, they are the experts when it comes to their own bodies and health. This collaborative approach is powerful. It creates an environment where clients can set their own agenda and choose the things they want to focus on. This paves the way for real, lasting change.
Health coaches don’t just work with the least healthy members of the population. They can support people with any number of health challenges and goals, from restarting an exercise regimen or getting into peak physical shape to stress reduction, diabetes management, autoimmune protocols, or weight loss. No other health professional has the unique skill set of a health coach. Coaches sit at the intersection of health information and behaviour change. They don’t just have a working knowledge of diet, lifestyle, and nutrition—they also understand how these factors affect the body, which helps them recognize and empathize with clients’ health challenges. Health Coaches also have the tools and skills to help clients build new habits and make lasting changes. This is what makes health coaches unique in the healthcare industry—they are not just a source of information but a catalyst for transformation. That’s critical, because making real, lasting lifestyle and behaviour changes isn’t a switch you flip. It takes ongoing effort and support. And it’s that ability to bring about lasting transformations that’s driving up the demand for well-trained health coaches.
