Appreciating 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.

An example of this is a person at work. This individual might be in a job that their parents got for them. While they are happy that they are able to make some money and support themselves, they are not happy. Everyone sees them as being successful because they did all the right things to get the job. They went to school, got their degree and they knew the right people.

So she did as she was told and went on to become a medical doctor. This is supposed to be a very fulfilling job, but somehow she did not feel fulfilled. The money was good and she was able take care of herself and her parents were very proud of her. So she began to wonder if something was wrong with her because she had a good job but was not happy.

As a result of this frustration, this individual might become stressed and out of balanced. Some people in this situation might turn to drinking or some other kind of substance abuse. This not only affects the mind, but the body as well as the spirit. Others might simply decide not to care about the quality of their work or what happens as a result of not caring.

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.
