LIFE COACHING involves working with clients to help improve their quality of life through various emotions and actions. A Life Coach will be there to support a client throughout the coaching process until they feel they have reached the goals they have set in place.
Life coaches will create a mentoring
relationship in which clients feel confident and comfortable. There are three
stages to mentoring relationships and the process it goes through to reach the
end goal.
1 GAIN
CLARITY AND PURPOSE: - One benefit of a Life Coach
is helping you find your purpose and clarity in life by understanding who you
really are. Many people find it unclear to understand what it is they actually
want in life, in order to know this you need to be confident in who you are and
what you want. Aspects which contribute to this would be looking at what is
meaningful to you, what brings you joy and what gives you a sense of purpose.
2. A
POINT OF GUIDANCE: - Life
Coaches are trained to be level-headed, understanding and controlling emotions.
One major benefit is having a point of guidance in life. When getting started
with a Life Coach you will work on uncovering what it is you want from your
sessions, how you are hoping to change aspects or your life and why you are
doing this. After successfully doing this your Life Coach can map out a series
or small goals which will make it clear what you are working towards.
3.
ENAGEMENT: - Engagement can quickly become a clear
benefit to having a Life Coach as it can be one of the most difficult points
when trying to get to a certain point. Life can quickly get on top of you as
you strive towards your desired destination causing you to lose a sense of
enjoyment in it all. A Life Coach will use a combination of mindfulness
techniques to help you come back into the present moment.
4.
SETTING ACHEIVABLR GOALS: - Some people may find it
easy to set Life Goals and work out how they are going to achieve them,
however, many people don’t know where to start and that’s completely normal. A
Life Coach will benefit goal setting by helping you make a plan on how to set
effective goals and the actions to achieve them. Throughout your life
coaching programs, your Life Coach will pull together your thoughts, wants
and beliefs to help identify and visualize life goals for yourself.
5.
IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY: - Improving productivity can
be a huge benefit of having a Life Coach; you may often feel like you don’t
have enough hours in a day to achieve what you would like. When you start to
work with a Life Coach, they will help you reflect and reframe how you are
currently spending your days.
6.
IMPROVE SELF AWARENESS: - Understanding the impact
you can have on others and clocking your flaws, strengths and personality
attributes can be difficult for you to pick up on yourself. An important part
of self-awareness is the ability to reflect on yourself. One benefit of working
with a Life Coach is session to session will involve reflection on aspects of
your life, which in turn will improve self-awareness.
