Understanding The Holistic Life Coach

By Lila Berger


If a person is not able to handle a specific problem, they might try to get help for that issue alone. Yet, there are other areas that might also be affected. A holistic life coach is one who looks at every area of a person's life and guides the individual in making the best decisions.

To illustrate, one can think about a hypothetical person named Debbie. This young woman grew up in a loving environment that also had order, discipline and structure. Her parents knew from day one what she was going to do with her life. They wanted her to go to school to become a medical doctor, just like her father.

In spite of all this, something is missing from their lives. They are not sure what it is, but they are not as fulfilled as they hoped they would be. This is due to the fact that their parents told them what profession they should get into and so they are not sure about what they really want. They are afraid to leave their job because they do not know where to turn.

Being in a job that one does not like affects the mind which can cause a person to make poor health choices. A person might turn to food for comfort since the food will not shout at them or be disappointed in them. They might also decide to stay out late for drinks and have fun as a way of getting away from it all.

What this person may not realize is that the choices that they are making come from their emotions. If a person feels that they are not in control of their situation, the emotions take over. Depending on how a person feels at any given moment, they might decide to eat unhealthy foods and make poor decisions which can affect their health.

There are some people who might decide to speak to someone who might specialize in a particular area of well being. This can work for a while, but if one area broken it also means that other areas might be broken as well. When a person receives coaching from someone who looks at all of life's areas, then one is able to see how everything fits together.

They will go through each area of a person's life and make the connections that lead to where the person is at present. Many times the individual that is seeking advice is not aware of how everything is connected and what they need to do. So coaching might be a good thing so that a person can change for the better.

This is one of many examples of how a holistic life coach can assist a person in making the right changes. Many times a person might have to come to terms with how they are living their lives, and if they are living up to their full potential. The right coach can help them put things into proper perspective.
