Supportive Life Coaching for Nutrition, Weight Loss & Weight Management
My combined nutrition, obesity & diabetes expertise includes weight-loss, weight-management, and eating disorders such as Bulimia, Anorexia, and Obesity. I have found that many of my clients struggle on a day-to-day basis with food. This includes craving certain foods at certain times of the day, to continually thinking about food throughout the day, or allowing their day/mood to be based upon what the scales are telling them – and the list goes on….
Food has become an emotional issue right across the board, rather than as a means for fuelling the body. Relationships, careers, friendships, and families are all affected by a person’s pre-occupation with food. Food can be addictive and destructive – mentally, emotionally, and physically.
Both weight loss and weight gain can dramatically affect your quality of life, your confidence, and your health. Life Coaching can help you recognise and address any issues you have with food by replacing negative behaviours with positive behaviours. It’s not easy to make positive lifestyle changes and it’s even harder to make them stick. But when we feel empowered, we focus on what we can do, rather than what we can’t do.
Life Coaching can help you understand yourself better and reach a level of self-acceptance that will enable you to make smart choices based on who you really are. I think we can give more to others when we are living a life that is most closely aligned to who we really are. In doing so, we can also give others the confidence to be themselves and to be more accepting not only of themselves, but more accepting of others too.
Supportive Life Coaching for Depression
Life Coaching can help a client recognise the feelings of inertia, lethargy and in-action that are associated with depression, by getting them to think about what it is in their life that is dragging them down and what’s missing from their lives in terms of happiness.
This is where Life Coaching can be a very effective and positive intervention. For those people who can recognise symptoms of depression within themselves, compassionate Life Coaching can help them resist the pull towards deeper depression and help them move towards happiness and an improved quality of life.
Supportive Life Coaching for Self-Esteem & Quality of Life
Among the symptoms of depression are negative thoughts, low self-esteem, and the inability to act positively. Life Coaching can help people fight back against those symptoms. It can help clients examine and change their thinking patterns, which can lead to powerful emotional and behavioural benefits. Very often people’s conclusions about themselves, their relationships with others and their options, are all based on faulty logic, poor beliefs, and over-generalisations.
Low self-esteem very often contributes to people’s inability to make and keep meaningful relationships. It can cause people to repeat unhealthy patterns as they don’t see a way to connect with other people feeling strong, confident and attractive. Examining their insecurities can help clients see themselves in a new, healthier, more productive light.
Life Coaching can help people think about what they really want from their life and help them see the contradictory way in which they are actually living. Often, people can only recognise what’s missing, or what feels wrong about their lives when what they really need to understand is how the choices they make can often work against them achieving what they say they want to achieve, and can in fact be sabotaging their chances of achieving what’s important to them, by refusing to act differently or make different choices.
