Imagine being in optimum health, feeling vibrant and energetic. Now imagine also having the skills to support others to do the same. The team at Health Coaches Academy tell us that this is the joy of being a health coach. Read on to discover how you can turn your passion for health into a career helping others.
What is health coaching?
Health coaching is a fast growing profession in the UK and worldwide and takes a behavioural change approach to healthcare. When people try to change their health, it can be very difficult. Take, for example, the common new year’s resolutions to get fit and healthy – why are they a thing of the past by the third week in January?
Studies show 84 percent of people feel tired most of the time, 70 percent of people want to lose weight and only 50 percent of people exercise – plus we have spiraling health issues which can be prevented with the right dietary and lifestyle interventions. And yet, it can be hard for people to change. Enter… the health coach.
Health coaches work with clients to create a brand new vision of health and wellness, create a new set of goals and habits they are excited by and provide support and accountability so they can finally reach and maintain them. It provides magic that has previously been missing. Changing our health means changing our mindset and behaviour and health coaches are experts in behaviour change in the area of health and wellness.

Health Coaches Academy graduate, Vicky, now runs her own coaching business Positive Feedback
One HCA graduate, Vicky, now runs her own business and had this to say about her experience: “When I read about health coaching, I had no idea what it was – but I went for it and loved it. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with it, but as soon as I did my case studies and saw what people can get from a coaching session, it felt wrong keeping this all to myself! I work with so many women now and I want everyone to experience and live this.
“Since graduating, I have launched my own business. HCA has taught me a systematic approach that has enabled me to guide people to dramatically improve their health and lifestyle and launch a successful practice too – in fact my practice is now full and I am seeing clients from all over the globe. I would highly recommend this course.”
