First Steps for Effective Health Coaching

Visit

A passage from the writings of Ellen G. White continue to instruct and inspire ministry on multiple levels of the Seventh-day Adventist Church: “The Saviour mingled with men as one who desired their good. He showed His sympathy for them, ministered to their needs, and won their confidence. Then He bade them, ‘Follow Me’.” (Ministry of Healing, p. 143).

Coaching is the way to “mingle” with people as one desiring their good. By learning key concepts of health coaching, you can learn how to help individuals determine the way forward for their own health, supporting and mentoring them along the way. In this course, you will learn the values of coaching, its uses and applications, and key techniques for an effective health coach. Learn how to empower people to move in a direction that is for their best good.

Dates:  January 24 and 31, 2021 (Sundays only)

Time:  3:00 – 6:00 pm Eastern

Cost:  $20 per person (plus $1 non-refundable processing fee)
