What A Life Enrichment Coach Can Do For You

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.

A person who does this for a living might have a specialty, but should have a good sense of the holistic. Without being a licensed dietitian, there should be an awareness of how diet affects health and mood. Sometimes it will be necessary to shake things up, taking on or even abandoning vegetarianism for instance.

Fitness dovetails with diet, but it can mean different things for different people. Many people looking for a life tune up start with dropping twenty or thirty pounds simply as an exercise in attainable goal setting. Others need to stretch a stiffened body, or just to get some more sunlight during the winter.

It's hard to have a happy life if things aren't right with one's own family, and many people are so deeply nested into habits passed down generation after generation that they could use an informed outsider's advice. First, of course, is our relations with spouses and children, relations which rarely seem perfect. Relations with our own parents, though, can also become a source of tension as they grow older and suffer the strains of old age.

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.

Emotional counseling is another important need, and for many, life enrichment verges upon psychotherapy. Many counselors have some form of psychotherapy degree as a basis for their more generalized careers. They have the requisite training in how to deal with grief, with addiction, with all the small specific things that can keep people from rising to their full potentials.

As a matter of emphasis, a psychotherapist treats those struggling to end a condition of suffering, to come up to even. Now there is an option for those looking to rise above mediocrity and seize their full potential. A good coach, therefore knows how to do a lot more than hold hands, but to inspire.
