Why A Weight Loss Coach

What seems to be the common approach of the conventional weight loss industry are the exercise and eating plans. While exercise and nutrition are certainly essential components of weight loss, those alone aren't enough. There is indeed a more important component to weight loss which is the mindset. I am sure that you would agree with me, that despite all the knowledge on fitness and diets, without the right mind frame, you will keep struggling. Ain't am right here? Here's the thing about mind frame. It is not enough to try and stay positive all the time. Even staying positive is a struggle in itself. Adopting a mindset for success isn't that simple, it requires time , effort and the help from a trained mindset specialist such as Aurelie Appasamy. Aurelie will help you gain better understanding of your own behavior, your decision making strategies and your patterns and will also help you overcome any mental obstacles that gets in your way.

A weight loss coach takes a rather holistic approach to weight loss. We are holistic individuals.

If you are not happy about your weight and body image right now, chances are you are also not happy in other areas of your life as well due to your weight. For instance your weight may be affecting your self esteem which is in turn affecting your relationships. This occurs because we are holistic individuals and every aspects of our lives is related to each other. This also means that if you aren't happy with your body image and health, chances are there is something else impacting on your weight and health. It could be lack of fulfillment in your job, it could be lack of recognition, needs not being met in the bedroom. Aurelie can work with you individually and help you uncover the underlying source of your weight issues. Aurelie will assist you wil various areas of your life as well and help you have more life satisfaction.

A weight loss coach is results and outcome oriented. The aim of life coaching is to assist a client set goals that will bring them closer to their desired outcomes and eliminate barriers such as self-sabotage and fears. This is the difference between a motivational weight loss coach and other weight loss professionals which tend to act as adviser and tell you what to do. A weight loss coach assist you to set your own goals rather than telling you what to do. There is also major differences between coaching and therapy. Coaching isn't therapy or counseling. Therapy or counseling focus on past events and focus on finding answers or solutions from the past. Not much focus is placed on goal setting in therapy or counseling with very little orientation towards outcomes. Whereas coaching is very much goal, outcome and results oriented. Life coaching is designed to empower you to take action and is indeed one of the best ways to foster personal development and enhance performance.

A great life coach is empathic because a life coach is trained in aspects of human behavioral science. And a coach such as Aurelie takes an extremely empathic approach to weight loss. Unfortunately many of the approach taken in the conventional weight loss industry is rather blaming and loathing. And this is because people who aren't trained in weight loss psychology do not comprehend human behavior fully. For instance your personal trainer may not fully understand why you eat emotionally or what's behind your lack of motivation and as a result this creates a lot of judgement and misconceptions about weight loss. A weight loss coach of course can assist you and provide you with a judgement free environment for you to fully explore and learn about yourself.
