WHAT AREAS OF HEALTH DO YOU FIND HARD TO CHANGE?
What is health coaching?
Health coaching is a collaborative approach to behaviour change. Rather than being told what you should do, your coach helps you explore what matters to you, understand what you want to change and identify your own path forward.
Your coach will listen, ask questions, help you explore your options and support you to build the confidence and motivation to take action.
You are the expert in your own life. Your coach is there to help you make the most of that expertise.
What could you be coached on?
You might want support to:
-
improve your eating habits
-
become more physically active
-
improve your sleep
-
manage stress
-
establish healthier routines
-
build confidence to make a change
-
overcome barriers that have been getting in your way
-
work towards a health or wellbeing goal
You don't need to have everything figured out before your first session.
You just need something you'd like to explore or change.
Why is the coaching free?
The coaching is provided as part of the practical development of AHCA health coaching students who are nearing completion of their Mastery training.
At this stage of their training, students have developed a foundation of health coaching knowledge and skills and are ready to further develop their skills through practical coaching experience.
By taking part, you get to experience health coaching at no cost, while helping an emerging health coach put their skills into practice.​​
What can I expect?
Your coaching session will be a conversation focused on you, your goals and what matters to you.
Your coach may help you:
-
clarify what you would like to change
-
explore what's important to you​
-
identify what's getting in the way
-
consider different options
-
recognise your strengths and resources
-
decide on a realistic next step
-
build confidence to take action
There is no judgement and no expectation that you have to make a particular change to your lifestyle or habits as a result of being coached.
