Appreciating The Holistic Life Coach

By Lila Berger


A holistic life coach has the ability to help a person change their life by looking at every aspect of it. Everyone has to work, take care of their health, and interact with others among other things. This type of coaching takes all of these areas and more into account so that a person will have the tools that are necessary to reach their goals.

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.

When the mind is affected in this manner, one cannot think effectively. Staying in a job that one does not like might show that a person is broken in other areas as well. They might be connected to family or friends who might expect them to stay in a profession they do not like. So whether they are making enough money or not, they are not happy.

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.

As a child, Debbie always dreamed of traveling the world and writing about her experiences in a book. However, she never got the kind of emotional support she needed from her parents. They did not directly criticized her, but they would gently tell her that she was being unrealistic. This is one of the main reasons why she was resentful of them but she did not hate them.

After a few years of this emotional roller coaster ride, she decided to work with a coach named Amanda, so that she could gain some perspective on what to do. She was afraid of confronting her parents, but this was something that she had to do. With the help of Amanda, she was able to make the necessary changes in her life and still be at peace with her parents.

These changes did not happen overnight. There were times when she did not want to do the exercises that were required of her. She was very nervous when she had to tell her parents what she really wanted to do with her life. In the end, she was able to travel the world as she wanted to do and still make use of her skills as a doctor.

A holistic life coach can help a person understand how all the major areas of their life are connected. Sometimes it takes someone with an objective view to show a person things they might not see on a day to day basis. When one is able to make sense of their situation, they can use the right tools to move in the direction of their choice.
