Wellness Coaching
Wellness coaching focuses on overall well-being, including physical, mental, emotional, and even spiritual health. The idea is to empower you to set realistic goals incorporating the nine areas of wellness so you can live a more balanced, fulfilling life. Scheduling appointments with a wellness coach will provide you with an accountability partner to help keep you moving toward your goals. (In order to keep you on track, we recommend meeting bi-weekly.)Â
