Real Health Coaching

Baaaaaack! After taking some time away from the business to have a baby and stay with her for awhile, we are back and better than ever!!!! We have changed our goal to our dream of creating a business centered around getting women out in nature, helping them to feel more comfortable with getting outside, while also providing a well rounded health education, including personalized health coaching, nutrition class and a judgement free space to be who you are, and find out what you want your health to look like moving forward.

To launch this new endeavor, we are looking for FIVE women who are interested in a month of one-on-one health coaching for a HUGELY discounted rate, which will then be applied to our next outdoor adventure in fall 2019! (outdoor adventure in southern California).

This discount is open to the first 5 women who are SERIOUS about making LONG TERM changes only!

LET'S DO THIS.

Confessions of a Health Coach:

People are always asking me what I do to be fit and healthy on a regular basis. The answer is never an easy one. It has taken me a long time to develop a balanced, healthy lifestyle. Commitment, determination, finding things I love and paying attention to how foods and activity make me feel.

THAT BEING SAID: Even I still have times of low motivation. It's easier to not exercise, its easier to eat like crap. When I have times of low motivated I used to beat myself up, tell myself I was lazy and make myself feel bad. Over time I have come to understand that low motivation is ok, it's ok to take care of yourself, to have some downtime. And it only recharges me to get back into it when I'm ready. So don't beat yourself up when you're going through a down phase, just remember that it can remind you of how you feel when you ARE making better choices.

Saw this article today and wanted to post b/c I hear this question often and it's good information to have. I eat one or the other daily in my oatmeal so I get a protein and fat in my breakfast...and it flavors up my steel cut oats a bit :)

What the heck IS a health coach anyway? This term is used way too widely in my opinion. The best definition I could find is the following:

A professional health coach help clients optimize health and well-being by developing and sustaining healthful lifestyles. Coaches help clients enhance self-motivation and self-regulation, leverage strengths, navigate a journey of change and build other psychological resources needed to change for good, inducing mindfulness, self-awareness, positivity, hope, optimism, self-efficacy, and resilience (Frates & Moore, 2011).

ESSENTIALLY, a coach helps you make LONG TERM CHANGE by not telling you what to do, but walking next to you while helping you figure out what works for you by using your strengths and focusing on the positive.
