May be you have had it with the same old rat
race getting out of bed in the morning becoming
more and more difficult and more and more youre
looking forward to Friday afternoon. Perhaps its
time you considered finding a personal life coach
someone to help remind you who you really are.
In general, life coaching is a method of
directing and training to achieve a goal or
develop a skill set. A lifecoach is an ally and a
partner who acts as a guide, a support, an
objective observer or a listener who hears whats
between the lines in order to help you achieve
what you want out of life. These are the keys to
happiness, feelings of satisfaction and increased
self-confidence.

We can all benefit from having someone who is
knowledgeable and helpful to guide us over the
rough patches and maybe even to help us accept
with joy, the smooth paths, too. Sometimes we
just need to commit to making a lifestyle change.
Nearly everyone has areas in their lives that
could use some improvement. Although there are a
number of ways to make improvements, sometimes
its better to find another person, a mentor of
sorts, to help us with that. There are a number
of different ways and techniques that a qualified
life coach can use.

One of those methods is called the Emotional
Freedom Technique, or EFT. It is often referred
to as needleless acupuncture. EFT uses the energy
pathways in your body called meridians, or chi
in Chinese medicine. A stressful and fast paced
life can block the flow of energy and actually
cause destructive thoughts and feelings as well
as physical aches and pains. A motivational coach
taps on specific meridians to restore the free
flow of energy, even in underlying tissues, which
can block personal progress in any number of ways.

Another life coaching technique is to begin with
a vague picture of where youd like to be in your
life. By focusing on where youd like to be
instead of where you are, specifics become
clearer as your vague picture feels more and more
believable to you. Where focus goes, energy
flows. It isnt necessary to make a trip to an
office and lie on a couch for an hour at a time.
While you definitely want to meet with your
lifestyle coach in person, many life coaches also
work through phone calls, email, self-help
websites and even text messaging in an emergency.

Life coaching subjects can include questions
about your talents, you key goals, or the
challenges that you have now or expect in the
future. These questions are essential to help in
pinpointing the issues that you may need help
with. Follow up questions at given intervals help
ascertain your progress. While styles of coaching
can vary, your personal life coach should be
someone who can understand your issues and help
you use effective behavior modification
techniques and mental exercises to improve your
attitudes toward work, family, and life in
general.
