Is Health Coach or a Fitness App The Better Way to Health and Wellness?

Recently, someone asked me: "Why should I hire a health coach where I can download an application free fitness to keep me on track?" And, you guessed it, I have an answer to share with you all!Do not get me wrong, I love the applications fitness LoseIt and MyFitnessPal. In fact, I think these applications are food diary century. I remember I first foray into Weight Watchers in 1990. We received a booklet paper every week and we were told to write down everything I ate in the brochure. Then, a few years later, a type tracker calculator was available for about $ 75, I think. How things have changed! However, these free applications have millions of entries in a database that users can add continuously.

After four meetings, including a visit to the supermarket together, we arrive at a very important time. It started innocently enough with a conversation about how supermarket tour was his confidence. And suddenly, my client was on their connections related to infant feeding and fear feeling experiences today. It was a moment of tissues and tears, and dissipates much of its tension with food.This story is a perfect example of what health coaching offer that is not available in a free application. Health coach is a recognition that the needs of individual customers. It has a place to discuss not only what to eat, but why make adjustments. Along its clients and health coaches create a sacred space where great bonding occur. Coach shares tips and recipes and learn from reading the label in a way that is easy to absorb.The most important thing is the relationship of health coaching do
