I don’t know what people need to do or who they need to become. When I first meet with someone, I have no idea where we are going, and where we end up is usually a surprise to us both. —Rachel Naomi Remen M.D. in Kitchen Table Wisdom
A Wellness Coach is a guide and mentor to you as you move forward with your life and health transitions. What I do is listen to your story, and learn with a curious ear who you are and what you want your life to look like.
We start from where you are right now and focus on the changes you want to make. Together, we come up with strategies to get you there. I do not prescribe anything, but will make suggestions. My work is based on years of studying health and wellness as a nurse, health educator, fitness specialist, yoga teacher, and wellness coach.
Four Questions:
What are you eating?
What are you drinking?
What are you doing?
What are you thinking?
My philosophy of coaching for health and wellness is about how you think and feel at any given moment.
I have discovered through my own healing journey that the strongest foundation is moderation. When the mind is given the time and space to focus and reach a clear vision, and when thoughts are healed, physical wellness manifests. Yet, as Benjamin Franklin reminds us in his echo of the Ancient Greek philosophers:
Moderation in all things — including moderation.
I have often found the four questions above helpful — the most important being What are you thinking? What you think is what you create, and what you do comes from what you think.
I encourage moderation, mindfulness, and movement. With a balanced approach, I have helped people lose weight, enjoy exercise, finish projects, and relate better to loved ones and business associates. I have also served as a guide and advocate to those interested in prevention and spiritual wellness, as well as those in treatment for or healing from a chronic illness.
I offer coaching that goes beyond behavior and deeper into your thoughts, your philosophy of life, and your inner discovery of what matters most to you. I can help you become the person you want to be in order to live an authentic life of health, happiness, and peace of mind.
