What is Natural Wellness?
Natural wellness focuses on prevention, a holistic view of the client, and the use of a holistic approach to support the body's self-healing process. It combines traditional remedies with modern scientific principles to address the root causes of illness, rather than just suppressing symptoms. Functional relationships and physiologic systems are assessed to help integrate genetics, biochemistry, physiology, endocrinology to develop personalized care to meet a client’s individual needs.
The 7 Principles of wellness coaching:
The Healing Power of Nature: Recognize an inherent self-healing process in people that is ordered & intelligent and act to identify & remove obstacles to healing & recovery, & to facilitate & augment this inherent self-healing process.
Identify and Treat the Causes: Seek to identify and remove the underlying causes of illness rather than to merely eliminate or suppress symptoms.
First Do No Harm: Three guidelines to avoid harm: Utilize methods & substances which minimize the risk of harmful side effects. Use the least force necessary to help the client heal. Avoid when possible the harmful suppression of symptoms & acknowledge, respect, & work with individuals’ self-healing process.
Coach as Teacher: Educate clients & encourage self-responsibility for health. Recognize & employ the therapeutic potential of the practitioner-client relationship.
Treat the Whole Person: Treat each client by taking into account individual physical, mental, emotional, genetic, environmental, social, and other factors. Since total health also includes spiritual health, coaches encourage individuals to pursue their personal spiritual development.
Prevention: Emphasize the prevention of illness by assessing risk factors, heredity and susceptibility to disease, and by making appropriate interventions in partnership with their patients to prevent illness.
Wellness: Promote a state of overall wellbeing, supporting the client’s journey toward harmony, and addressing lifestyle factors that contribute to health.
