About Holistic Coaching
I help wellness professionals (and wellness professionals in the making!) reduce stress and beat procrastination so they can get to the next level. I help them find balance and harmony in order to live a more happy, healthy, and fulfilled life.
Ask yourself these questions:
- Are you struggling with an increased amount of stress?
- Do you procrastinate to the point that it causes anxiety?
- Are you feeling burned out with nothing left over?
- Do you feel overwhelmed and like there is “too much going on”?
- Do you consider yourself an “overachiever”?
- Do you put too much pressure on yourself?
- Do you lack the coping skills or ability to relax?
The truth is that you don’t have “too much” going on, it’s simply not prioritized yet. You may not have the clarity to know the next steps to take or you’re focusing your attention on things outside of your control. You may see this show up as problems in your relationships or you may experience extreme exhaustion. Maybe you see this as overwhelming and you often become discouraged.
Truth be told, you’re not an overachiever, but you’re probably doing more things out of obligation and less of the things that actually bring you joy. You might find yourself filling up your time with busy work and you may be confused about what helps you vs what harms you. You’re likely taking on excess and “biting off more than you can chew”. This may even result in you being irritable (and we both know that’s not your true nature!).
Now, consider the pressure you put on yourself for a moment. It’s not too much. However, your self-talk may sound negative and lack a sense of self-compassion and kindness. This breeds anxious thoughts and fatalistic thinking or worry. You may ruminate on all the reasons why you can’t do something or the “what if’s” instead of asking how you could do it and making a reasonable plan for yourself.
You don’t lack coping skills, trust me; but there is an imbalance in your life because you don’t know how to relax or carve out time for yourself. You’re probably giving too much and not receiving an equal amount in return. You likely have a noticeable lack in self-care and find yourself “pouring from an empty cup”.
