To empower you with understanding of your body’s function and metabolism, which will then enable you to make your own lifestyle choices, which with ongoing facilitation, will become a sustainable way of life.
My Objective for You: To live life to the fullest by enjoying good, vibrant health now and in the future.
My Approach: My approach, which is somewhat different, is the following. I believe that if you empower people with true, factually based scientific knowledge coupled to understanding, they can fully determine their own destiny through the exercise of lifestyle choices that are truly sustainable. This excludes one month diets; present and future fads; and popular beliefs that are often without scientific fact. In addition, should the need arise, I can help any particular person understand a specific health problem.
Knowledge based scientific fact will be interwoven with practical implementation guidelines.
Thus there are 3 levels to the process:
- Understand
- Decide
- Action
Facilitation : Facilitation and professional support will be provided throughout this process. Studies have shown that health facilitation and motivation is the most effective strategy for achieving great and permanent health.
Background Motivation:
- GP’s are disappearing – doctors lack time for patients – little or no counseling given
- Medical schemes dictate rates and therefore time given to each patient
- People do not track their own health
- Clients are bombarded with information and misinformation from all directions – do not understand and do not trust
- Clients are willing to take responsibility for their own health, but they need assistance and facilitation
- Health is the most valuable asset of all humans
- Personal time and attention is a rare commodity in our present hurried lives
- Health is such an integral and vital part of life, and thus life and health coaching go hand in hand to achieve ones full potential
