Balance and Self-Care Coaching
Learn to decide for yourself what it means to have a balanced life and what works for you
Balance and Self-Care Coaching: In a society valuing achievement and status, many neglect their well-being in pursuit of success.
But what’s the worth of such success if it leaves you constantly stressed and distant from loved ones?
Despite societal views, life balance and self-care aren’t “soft” but essential. Instead of pushing through stress, prioritize well-being. The challenge is:
Where to begin and how to allocate time for self-care?
Decide for yourself what it means to have a balanced life and what works for you.
In our 3 Module / 9 Session Balance and Self-Care Coaching, we look at the whole person, the whole life in context. We know that without self-care and life balance, life can be pretty miserable and lack joy and substance.
So, what are your needs? Where is your energy being drained? Are you too comfortable and going nowhere – or are you constantly pushing yourself so that “comfort” or “balance” is a passing thought before you throw yourself nto the melee again?

About our Balance and Self-Care Coaching Series
When we don’t have our health, we spend all our energy trying to LIVE. When we have our health, we feel ALIVE. Self care is a practice and there is no perfect formula that works for everyone because each individual is blessedly and beautifully special.
We were never given a guidebook on “us” so discovering the correct keys to unlock your vitality, wellness and optimal health can feel overwhelming, confusing and lonely.
Learning how to eat right, reduce stress, exercise regularly, and take a time-out when you need it are touchstones of self-care and can help you anti-stress, stay healthy, and be resilient.

When you practice self-care, you improve both your physical and emotional health, are able to view problems as opportunities rather than obstacles and are better positioned to create breakthroughs in all areas of your life.

Client Testimonials
Michael coached me during one of the most difficult periods of my adult life. I would cite, among his many strengths, his ability to “hear” a client. “Hearing” a client is much more than listening to words; hearing a client acknowledges a client’s mood, energy, and thought processes.
Michael has a great way with people. He can easily put you at ease and has a well spring of knowledge to share on many topics. His advice is sound and his attention makes you feel valued as an individual.

emotionally, and mentally
Good self-care practices are also an effective way of keeping yourself firing on all cylinders
