Book excerpt: "The New Primal Blueprint serves as the ultimate road map for anyone wishing to make the shift from flawed conventional wisdom about diet and exercise to a healthy, happy empowering lifestyle patterned after the evolutionary-tested behaviors of our hunter-gatherer ancestors. The book details the ten immutable Primal Blueprint lifestyle laws that enable empower you to reprogram your genes to direct in the direction of weight loss, health, and longevity. The Primal Blueprint laws are validated by two million years of human evolution as well as an ever-expanding body of contemporary scientific research. Sisson's philosophy was originally met with skepticism as he aggressively challenged numerous mainstream health tenets. Eight years later, mainstream medical and health science are validating the Primal Blueprint tenets assertions that a high-carb, grain-based diet will make you fat, tired, and sick; that a consistent routine of medium-to-difficult cardiovascular workouts can actually compromise your health and longevity and increase risk of heart disease; and that consuming (whole food sources of) fat and cholesterol does not lead to heart disease as we have been led to believe, but rather offers many health benefits." --

Along with these changes come exciting opportunities, including new career paths in the professional domain of health and wellness coaching. Centered on an evidence-based process for guiding change, Lifestyle Wellness Coaching, Third Edition With Web Resource, offers a systematic approach to helping clients achieve enduring changes in their personal health and wellness behaviors through a supportive and forward-moving coaching relationship. Lifestyle Wellness Coaching has been thoroughly revised and updated to keep pace with the rapidly evolving field of wellness coaching. It is complemented by discussions, case studies, reflective opportunities, and practical aids and engages readers through multiple approaches to learning: The reader is encouraged to gauge comprehension and application of the content by reflecting on personal experiences within the context of coaching. Sample dialogues offer real-world examples of coaching situations and strategies. The International Coach Federation’s 11 core competencies are thoroughly examined to prepare readers for certification in the profession of coaching. A new web resource houses easy-to-use forms, plans, and assessments that professionals can use immediately with clients. Lifestyle Wellness Coaching examines real coaching conversations to assess key considerations, such as the types of questions to ask, how to provide feedback effectively, and how to facilitate action planning.

The discussion of TTM includes strategies appropriate to clients in various stages of readiness to change. The text also presents the learning-through-change model (LCM), revealing the deep layers beneath each phase of client movement toward change. Readers are offered a map for coaching clients toward goal achievement. The authors’ unique flow model of coaching illustrates how professional coaches can help clients navigate the sometimes turbulent events of a person’s life in order to change habitual patterns of behavior. The companion web resource offers a complete kit of assessment tools to help establish a strong framework for successful coaching. A welcome packet, coaching readiness index, introductory session form, and between-sessions questionnaire benefit both the professional and client in laying the groundwork. Other supplemental resources, such as a social and emotional intelligence assessment and a goal setting form, support the journey. Lifestyle Wellness Coaching, Third Edition, is the definitive resource for those seeking to embrace wellness coaching and propel clients to healthy, effective change.

Download or read book Masterful Health and Wellness Coaching written by Michael Arloski and published by . This book was released on 2021-08 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Masterful Health & Wellness Coaching Dr. Arloski focuses on advancing the reader's understanding of the process of coaching in the health and wellness setting and guides the reader to a comprehensive level of expertise. Honing the craft as wellness coaches is the goal. Masterful Health & Wellness Coaching offers tools to become a true master of the history, research, scholarship, and techniques of wellness coaching at its highest level. Masterful Health & Wellness Coaching is divided into three parts, beginning with a foundation that great coaching is about transformation. Changing behavior needs to be viewed not through a unitary lens, but in the context of growth and development. Arloski reveals how this can be done for the client, for the coach, and for the growing profession of wellness coaching. The second part focuses on "How to Be", that is, a coaches presence and way of being in the world and with a client, and the powerful effect this has upon the coaching process. Part Three takes a deeper dive into the craft of wellness coaching. Throughout Dr. Arloski references what can be learned from relevant theory and research. Masterful Health & Wellness Coaching is tailored to coaches who want to go beyond the basics of "SMART Goals" and accountability, beyond tracking calories and sit-ups. It is for: - Coaches who want to become scholars of coaching. - Coaches who want to develop a greater understanding of the process of behavioral change. - Coaches who want to learn more about wellness. - Coaches who want to master what the entire field of health promotion has discovered about being well. - Coaches who want to become skilled craftspeople. - Coaches who want to meet their clients with understanding, empathy, and non-judgment. Dr. Arloski believes that coaching isn't about all the things a client is doing wrong and how grim their situation is. It's about what is needed to ensure a successful future. Masterful Health & Wellness Coaching gives you the tools to start your client on the path to success and to coach him or her until their healthy-living skills are second nature. The root of the word "coach" can be traced to a village in Hungary, Kocs, where carriages were made in the 1500's. Coaches love metaphors and what is better than this one: A "coach" takes you from where you are at to where you want to go. Perfect. The client is the one with the reins and it is the coaching process that facilitates the journey.
