Never before has there been so much attention on the effect that lifestyles have on health. Yet many people you meet every day know what to do but struggle with how to do it because of the demands of everyday life and the power of long-term habits.
Here's what they don't need from you:
More lectures
More warnings about the health consequences
More diets, gimmicks, or other short-term solutions
More motivation
What they do need is someone to walk alongside them, listen effectively, ask powerful questions, guide them to evidence-based health information, connect them to the real Power for change, and support them in designing a personalized plan that will lead to lasting lifestyle change. They need a Lifestyle Coach.

"Because of our exposure to a very humanistic approach to coaching, it was with some trepidation that we attended the Coaching Lasting Lifestyle Change workshop. However, what we found were very Biblical principles to use in our interaction with people attending our health education programs. We came away with tools for better listening and skillful questioning. It gave us a way to motivate people to reach their desired goals and allowed enhanced spiritual interaction. We would recommend this program to anyone who wants to promote whole person health for their program participants—whatever program is being utilized.”
