When To Find A Life Enrichment Coach

By Beryl Dalton


It is a simple matter to discern whether one has one, big problem in the center of life, dragging down every area of life. Those who habitually wake up hung over and in strange places generally do know that their core issue is a drinking problem. If they don't, there's usually someone around only too happy to enlighten them. For all those whose problems can't be so immediately determined, a life enrichment coach is often the way to go.

There are trained specialists in this field, or more typically those who started as such, but most have an intuitive sense for the holistic. Even without a license, there will be enough knowledge of diet to recognize a client's bad habits, those things that weaken happiness and sap energy. A coach will be able to recommend the dietary alterations that will contribute to overall success.

Fitness and diet are inevitably related, though different people will draw that line in different places. Some people need to spend a half year on the treadmill before listening to advice that they need to cut down on cheeseburgers. Then there are those who might need a yoga program, or simply to walk a mile each morning to get some sunlight with their workout.

It can be difficult to be happy when nothing is right with one's family, and there are millions so marinated in patterns that go back five or more generations that a fresh perspective might be needed just to help them recognize it. Many could use a bit of work relating to those closest, the wife or husband, or the children. Then there can be trouble relating to aging parents, especially after retirement.

It should be no surprise that one of the most common areas for consultation in life enrichment is dating. This can be an area of extremely high emotional stakes, where the ego and heart are almost always exposed. So many of us need help with anything from pickup up lines to curing a roving eye and coming to appreciate who we already have. Many need advice in everything from wardrobe to building an attractive online profile for dating sites.

If it isn't love, quite often the problem is money, with a dire need for financial advice a prerequisite to any other form of success. Typically there will be a distinct difference between what life coaching does and that which can better be done by an accountant or true financial analyst. But an accountant might not be the right person to ferret out underlying failings in one's general attitude toward wealth, including all the little ways people drive it away.

Some people need broad emotional counseling, and their enrichment sessions might closely resemble psychotherapy. Many coaches are degreed psychotherapists, and find that background useful. People with such training will be able to recognize the difference between deepset grief and deepset rage, giving them a leg up at diagnosing weaknesses.

Generally, a psychotherapist treats the truly suffering, whereas coaching is for those blocked from achieving positive dreams. They represent a path for those seeking greatness. Making a call might be making the right move.
