The healthcare industry is growing by leaps and bounds, simply because the baby boomer generation are looking for ways to stay healthy and live a long life. Not only that, but the healthcare industry itself offers the baby boomer generation assistance when it comes to living a healthy lifestyle. A health coach, can support the baby boomer generation by teaching them the proper exercise, the proper nutrition, and opportunities for staying healthy and living a long life.
In the past, the public thought very little about exercising and the importance of exercising, outside of working as an exercise. It wasn't until the 60s and the baby boomer generation coming of age, did things start to change. As the baby boomer generation became young adults, it was also the beginnings of the health club and spa industry; the public was beginning to demand better healthcare, beauty products to keep them looking young and vibrant, and understanding that exercise also meant working the muscles to keep them loose and strong for better mobility as they aged. This is the predecessor to the beginnings and importance of health coaching as an industry.
The healthcare system has notoriously told people what to do and not helped them fix the root cause of their health issues. More and more people are realizing that a pill doesn’t fix everything, and they are in need of ongoing support, guidance, and coaching to help them go deeper with why they may be struggling health-wise and allow them to decide their best path forward.
Health Coaching is becoming the future, the way to support health goals and go deeper to understand how to create better habits that make sense for their personal wellness journey.
Most people are often left at the mercy of their health care provider, or may ignore deep-rooted issues and avoid getting help altogether. A Health Coach helps a person create new habits for lasting change to ultimately live their healthiest life in all aspects including relationships, money, career, health and connection with their higher power.
Health Coaching takes a more holistic approach and allows the client to understand themselves better. With the help of a Health Coach by their side to set very specific goals, clients are able to finally make lasting change: keep the weight off for good, choose a more balanced diet, get stronger both mentally and physically, and transform from the inside out?
Sounds too good to be true, right?
Think you need to be a doctor and go to school for a hundred years to make a doctor’s salary? Think again. Clients are shelling out big bucks to work with a coach who has their best interest at heart and isn’t just looking to prescribe them a pill.
Clients are seeking lasting results instead of a quick fix, and a Health Coach will work with them in focusing on current and future goals and creating a step-by-step plan to reach them.
If you’ve always wanted to be your own boss, make your own schedule and have more freedom, Health Coaching can help get you there. While there’s no guarantee, life as a Health Coach can be exponentially more rewarding than sitting behind a desk 9-5.
