Coaching Certifications That Tackle Your Client’s Current Concerns
You can make a great living by helping others reach their health goals, and improve your clients’ happiness and overall well-being. With a coaching career, you have the power to decide who you would like to serve, and you also have the ability to expand your career and industry knowledge whenever you feel ready to do so.
There are many different types of coaching you can offer. Figuring out what niche you want to focus on can be a challenge, but if you mind-map your passions, interests, experience, and knowledge you can narrow it down relatively easy.
Stress Management Coaching
We are amid unprecedented circumstances as all of us are experiencing hour-by-hour, minute-by-minute changes, fears and uncertainties. Building in time each day to take care of our bodies and minds can go a long way in managing these multiple coronavirus-related stressors, increasing our chances of staying well.
As a coach, do you know all the physiological and psychological signs and symptoms? Do you know the leading causes of stress? How do you define the distinct difference between good and bad stress? Do you have an action plan for clients who experience high levels or extended periods of stress?
It’s actually a really interesting and complex topic. And, due to our hectic world, coaches who have specific skills and credentials in stress management are doing very well.
Stress Management Coaching is the perfect complement to all other coaching certifications because all clients have stress of some kind. And, now you will be qualified to help them, and have a beautiful new certification to hang on the wall.
Sleep Science Coaching
Sleep may be the most influential aspect of our health that is widely taken for granted. Many these days aren’t surprised to learn that a large number of the population makes do with six hours of sleep or less on average, but they are surprised to learn that six hours of sleep a night puts your health at serious risk.
A good night’s sleep is essential for maintaining good health, keeping you alert and energetic, and building your body’s defenses against disease. And a growing number of studies have linked long-term sleep deficits with significant health problems including:
Every client you will ever coach wants to improve their sleep. They want more sleep. Your clients desire greater recuperation or more consistency in their sleep routine. So, regardless of what type of coaching, training or consulting you already do as part of your business, becoming a Certified Sleep Science Coach will give you the tools, resources, knowledge and credential to help more people while you build a successful coaching practice.
Lifestyle & Weight Management Coaching
Obesity, overeating, pain because of body image, emotional challenges with food, digestive ailments, fatigue, and nutrition-linked metabolic disorders are with us more than ever. As a Lifestyle & Weight Management Specialist, you bridge the gap and make a difference for clients who struggle with these issues.
Food is our most natural form of medicine and a key ingredient in reducing our overall levels of stress and anxiety, but with grocery stores limiting the purchase of specific items and advising people shop less often, eating well can be difficult. Shelf-stable staples such as frozen and canned produce, beans, and lentils will keep longer and are easy to incorporate into recipes.
Most people who struggle with weight loss are experiencing difficulties because they haven’t made all the changes necessary in order to see their desired results. During a consultation, a Certified Lifestyle and Weight Management Specialists can determine the behavior of the client and whether they are accepting the change or having difficulties making lifestyle changes. Lifestyle and Weight Management Specialists will also help their clients identify their biggest obstacles and help them create realistic, achievable goals.
