It's uncommon for us to dedicate even an hour of our time to focus on improving our health with the guidance of a professional. Now, consider having that opportunity every week for three months — an experience unlike any other you've encountered. Health coaching offers a comprehensive approach to well-being, taking into account all facets of your life and prioritizing what matters most to you. Each of us has a unique purpose in life that thrives when we are in good health. If you resonate with these sentiments, health coaching could be the missing piece you've been looking for. Learn more about four reasons you may need a health coach from our team at Evexia and get in touch with us to get started today!
Four Reasons You May Need a Health Coach
Motivation
You thought the initial burst of inspiration would carry you to achieving your goals, but it hasn't worked out that way. You feel stuck in unhealthy behaviors and believe you can't change. Have you ever questioned whether it's true that you "can't" change? Imagine what it would mean if you could. While inspiration sparks motivation, it's consistent action that allows it to take root and grow. Health coaching provides the opportunity to take a deep dive into how you can change, one step at a time, to fuel the inspirations that ignite your imagination.
Preparation
You've been trying to make healthy changes, but life keeps getting in the way, preventing progress. What if you created a plan to overcome these challenges and practiced sticking to it? Adversity is inevitable, but health coaching provides the time to develop best practices and reinforce them through repetition. This helps you build the mental toughness needed for your changes to flourish, leading to a healthier life.
Taking Responsibility and Trusting Yourself
You secretly want to make healthy changes but hesitate to tell anyone because you fear being held accountable and doubt your ability to follow through. What if that "anyone" was there to support you in a way that honors your values, strengths, and the hard-won achievements that have brought you this far? Health coaching offers this kind of support. By exploring your strengths and values and discussing your past successes, health coaching helps you build self-trust and take responsibility for creating a vibrant, healthy life.
Longevity
Your lifestyle is starting to feel unhealthy — even a little scary. You live under constant pressure and can’t even imagine how to begin making the healthy changes needed for a long life. What if you could spend just 50 minutes each week to "imagine" and plan those changes? Think about what that could mean for the rest of your life. We all veer off course sometimes, but regularly bringing your life back into balance makes it less daunting. It helps you develop a practice of living in harmony, no matter the circumstances.
Creating strategies to honor your life’s purpose and consistently redirecting yourself back to that purpose is a lifelong skill essential for longevity. We all want to fulfill our purpose for as long as possible, for ourselves and for the people who depend on us. Health coaching gives you the dedicated time to develop these longevity strategies, helping you lead a balanced and fulfilling life.
There is a greater purpose that drives you in life, encompassing self-care, family, friends, colleagues, spirituality, sports, community, and career. If you’re not healthy and thriving, all of these areas are compromised. While a doctor's appointment may give you 15 minutes to address a specific health issue, a three-month health coaching program can impact many aspects of your life and health. More and more doctors are referring their patients to health coaches to address broader health concerns.
You have the power to improve your health through lifestyle changes. Give yourself the gift of time to build motivation, prepare yourself, take responsibility, and trust in your ability to sustain these practices. Developing these habits promotes longevity and helps you fulfill your life’s purpose. Get in touch with our team at Evexia to find health coaching for your needs today!
