Your career will greatly benefit by adding wellness coaching services.
But, I’m a personal trainer…. perfect!
But, I’m a life coach…. excellent!
But, I teach martial arts…. awesome!
But, I don’t have any medical training…. no worries!
In short, wellness coaching is THE PERFECT ADDITION to ANY fitness, nutrition or personal development business.
Think about it….
If you teach fitness, you know that your client’s success is largely based on the other 23 hours of the day when you are not with them. They have the opportunity to completely unravel all of the hard work during their training session. But, with better overall wellness skills, they get better results and are more completely fulfilled.
If you are a life coach or success coach, you know – without a doubt – that health and wellness strategies and daily practices are 100% essential if your client’s improved results. You can teach all the clarity and motivational tactics you want, but if your client doesn’t have his or her wellness optimized, there will be lack of energy, lack of mental focus, and lack of physical confidence.
If you teach martial arts of any kind, you know that the most successful martial artists have their entire life in order. Of course, having good technique is essential. However, a proficient martial artist who lacks good eating habits, proper sleep, and has high stress levels will likely never be a champion. Wellness coaching helps make the champion.
Wellness coaching isn’t about the medical field even though some wellness coaches are nurses or other medical practitioners. Wellness coaching requires a unique set of skills that are not taught in traditional coach training programs. As a wellness coach, you work with individuals or groups who want to make changes in their lifestyle to optimize their health and well-being. Wellness coaching is an established technique pairing behavior change, wellness strategies, and personal growth techniques.
Wellness is a dynamic concept comprised of an interrelated set of dimensions including emotional, environmental, intellectual, occupational, physical, social, and spiritual factors. Wellness is an active, lifelong process that involves expanding knowledge, skills, values, practices, and supportive environments that increase one’s ability to enjoy a balanced and fulfilling life.
