What is Health Coaching?
And how can it help me?
Dr. Mehmet Oz tells the US Senate we need Health Coaches.
In a CNN interview, Dr. Mehmet Oz reported that health coaches should be a part of every public clinic, medical office and hospital wellness center and should be reimbursed by insurance companies & corporate wellness programs.
Dr. Mehmet Oz’s interviewed on Larry King Live March 11, 2009 said “…Since we know that 70 percent of these aging processes are driven by lifestyle changes, if we can change the culture of wellness in America and we can build systems — we’ve had discussions with the Institute of Medicine. This month, we’ve had discussions with the Senate about how you can make, for example, health coaches, which could be a tier of health care providers that don’t cost a lot to train, but could actually provide the infrastructure to people to make it easy to do the right thing.”
There is a big difference between knowing what to do to regain or maintain health and doing it. That’s why with all the health information at our fingertips more people are unhealthier than ever before.
That’s where health and wellness coaching comes in. It is so easy to convince oneself not to take action. But day after day of not taking action compounds into major health deterioration. A health coach provides one-on-one support, encouragement, educational resources, and accountability to help you maintain small action steps that keep you going in the direction of your ultimate goal, an energetic, vibrant lover of life.
