HOW TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE.

Have you ever felt like you want to change something in your life, but you don't know how or where to start?
 

If you choose to work together in a series of coaching sessions, you will achieve:

• Greater self-awareness

• Clarification and achievement of goals

• Improving self-confidence

 

By applying specific coaching techniques, the individual can grow and be happy and accumulate positive emotions. To build a mental reserve that he can turn to and rely on to draw strength in difficult times. To not just be "not sick" mentally, but more than healthy!

 

Coaching also leads to:

  • Self-awareness and identification of the positive elements of the individual (who I am and what I am good at)

  • Recognition of deeper needs & desires (what I really want or need)

  • Change: how I change and how I perceive change

  • Autonomous learning: I am trained to learn from my experiences

  • Shift to an internal locus of control: I am not controlled by fate or external factors, but by myself

  • Increased sense of self-efficacy: I can do it

Coaching

WHAT COACHING IS - AND WHAT IT IS NOT

Coaching began as Organizational Coaching ( businesses ) and Executive Coaching (for business executives) was first encountered in a scientific journal article in 1937. Its purpose was to increase employee performance through improving their skills, communication, and relationship building.

Coaching was initially implemented by Psychologists who followed the principles of Psychology and Psychotherapy in its practical application. However, it quickly acquired an autonomous entity, until we reach the present day and define Coaching as a global social phenomenon whose main objective is the achievement of goals.

Life Coaching does not deal with mental health issues and does not provide advice or solutions.

Positive Psychology

Positive Psychology is the branch of Psychology that deals with promoting the well-being and development of people, so that they can enjoy their lives to the fullest extent.

It focuses on what helps people become better and happier, in contrast to the classical approach of Psychology which focuses on mental illness and its causes.

It promotes well-being and life satisfaction, through the study and development of strong personality elements (characteristics, values, motivations, abilities, etc.), as well as through the engagement, understanding, identification and experience of positive emotions.
