What is health and wellbeing coaching? Well it’s a relatively new concept to the UK, having its origins like many areas of practice in the USA. Essentially it’s all about supporting individuals to make positive and sustained changes to some aspect of their health and wellbeing.

We all know what we ‘should’ be doing and what a healthy lifestyle might look like but not that many of us manage to achieve it on a daily basis. There can be any number of barriers to us making positive changes – these can be practical challenges but also mindset shifts that need to happen for us to create and maintain a healthy mind and body.
