6 Signs You Should Hire A Health Coach

I used to tell myself that I would dedicate myself to getting healthy "later," but "later" never came. I ate very unhealthy foods and always told myself I would start eating healthier "tomorrow." I needed to start exercising, but I would tell myself I would join the gym "next month." When I reached a milestone birthday, I realized that I had set so many health goals that had come and gone in the past decade and had to finally get serious about getting healthy. I then began researching health tips online and found quite a few that inspired me to finally start eating healthy and getting into shape. I still have a ways to go, but I am finally now on the way to achieving my goals! I know so many health blogs inspired me, so I decided to create one of my own to share my health tips on!

6 Signs You Should Hire A Health Coach

How do you improve your health? Some people might say you need to get more sleep. Others may tell you that you need to improve your diet. Because the journey toward better health can be complex and nuanced, it is not always a journey to be taken alone. Some people can really benefit from hiring a health coach to help guide them and walk alongside them as they work to improve their health. Here are six key signs you should hire a health coach.

You don't know which direction you should take.

Are you wondering whether you should try a vegan diet? Jump into intermittent fasting? Give up gluten? Finding direction is the first step toward improving your health. A health coach can help you get started on a path that's right for you.

You don't have a lot of motivation.

You may want to get healthier, but when it comes to actually taking steps toward better health, things can get in the way. Alternatively, you just may not have the motivation. These are things a health coach can help with. They are specifically trained to help motivate their clients.

You spend a long time making decisions.

Some decisions do deserve a lot of contemplation. Others, though, are best made promptly. You can't spend an hour deciding whether to eat an apple or a banana with your lunch, for instance. A health coach can help you improve your decision-making skills as they apply to health.

You don't feel like you deserve better health.

Do you look around at all the other healthy people and the healthy choices they make, and somehow feel like you're not worthy of the same? This is something that a health coach can really help you with. They'll reassure you of your worth and really help you understand and internalize your own importance.

You're under a lot of stress.

If you're stressed out, improving your health can feel like one more huge obligation. Handing some of the responsibility over to a health coach can help alleviate some of the stress, which will ultimately make for a healthier experience. 

You need to be held accountable.

You know yourself well. Are you someone who tends to slack or stop trying if there is no one there checking in and holding you accountable? If so, you need to hire someone to hold you accountable — like a health coach.

Whether you're trying to lose weight, feel better, or prolong your life, hiring a health coach to help get you there tends to be a smart choice. Contact a health coaching service for more information.
