Lifestyles have changed dramatically over the past quarter century.  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 text presents communication  strategies to motivate, guide, inform, and support clients’ processes  toward personal change with a holistic approach. It addresses boundaries  of care and advice appropriate to coaching relationships. Other issues  explored include developing a trusting relationship, creating goals that  are aligned with coaching processes, unblocking clients’ energy and  discovering resources for change, and generating forward movement  through the skillful use of the International Coach Federation’s 11 core  competencies. 

Lifestyle Wellness Coaching introduces readers to models that clearly identify clients’ progress  through the stages of change. First, the text explores the popular  transtheoretical model (TTM) of health-related behavior change and its  delineation of six stages of clients’ readiness to change. 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.
