Let's talk about what a Life Coach is and what they do.
‘Life coaches aid their clients in improving their lives'
A coach helps you grow by analysing your current situation, discover your own strengths and abilities, identifies your limiting beliefs (and other obstacles) and then devising a custom made action plan to help you achieve what you set out to do.
A coach will empower you and provide you with a toolkit of teachings to face challenges and overcome barriers. They won’t tell you what do to; they will use techniques to help you uncover the answers yourself.
You would hire a life coach to help you with specific professional, personal goals and transitions.
A life coach is a trained professional who aims to help and guide you to create, meet and exceed personal and professional goals.
What is NLP?
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is thought to be one of the most effective and accessible self-help methods to come from modern psychology.
​
NLP is a psychological approach that involves analysing strategies used by successful individuals and applying them to reach a personal goal. It relates thoughts, language, and patterns of behaviour learned through experience to specific outcomes.
​
Life coaches use NLP techniques to help 'reprogramme' clients' patterns of thinking and behaving. NLP works on the basis of assessing a client's perception of the world and adapting our behaviour and reactions to enable us to live a happy, desired life.
