LIFE COACHING
What Is Life Coaching With Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)?
Life Coaching is a practical and objective method of problem solving or setting
and working towards personal goals. It differs from counselling which often
involves exploring issues from the past in order to alleviate emotional distress.
Life Coaching works best when a person is ready and able to take up the
challenge of changing the direction of their life.
Incorporating NLP into Life Coaching simply adds another dimension to improve
its effectiveness.
NLP has many explanations but in simple terms:
1 ‘Neuro’ - is concerned
with our minds and the way we think about things
2 ‘Linguistic’ - relates to
the way we use language, the interpretation we give
to it and how this affects us.
3 ‘Programming’ - is about the
ability we have to manage our responses and
actions in order to achieve goals in our lives.
NLP is a well established, practical approach to problem solving, goal setting
and making life changes. It involves a process of becoming more aware of your
own needs, what you really want for the future and how to get there.
Self development and change requires you to work on yourself in order that you
can become who you really want to be. In doing so, you can then help others
and enjoy better relationships all round.
When we act differently, we can change our thoughts and feelings and similarly,
when we think more clearly we can make changes. NLP involves developing your
senses and learning through doing.
What Happens In Life Coaching Sessions?
You will talk through the issues that concern you in a structured way with the
Life Coach who acts as a guide and provider of support through this process of personal change and development. Usually it also involves writing a personal plan
with timescales and goals.
Sessions last for approximately 1 hour and are held either face to face or by
phone.
