Life Coaches Who Use Unconventional Strategies For Their Clients’ Benefit

As a life coach, I like to use whatever strategies will get my clients to achieve their goals.

I recently came across an article about a life coach who uses horses to communicate with her clients. She had a revelation, and followed it for the betterment of her clients.

Another example of using unconventional yet effective strategies is the autistic genius’ mother, Kristine Barnett, who appeared on Episode 63 of GluckRadio.com. Rather than take the traditional route of putting her son in schools for autistic, she kept him at home and embraced his love of astronomy and physics. As a result, her nurturing led to an unprecedented social and emotional improvement.

The skill that the life coach and Kristine Barnett used was merely seeing what was in front of them, and harnessing that into a non-traditional (and highly effective) approach. This is the mark of a great life coach.

If I have a drug-addict who loves music, I’m not going to identify him as a drug addict and treat him through that lens. I’m going to channel what he does love — the parts of himself he has a high self-esteem for — and use that to his advantage.

Life Coaching Starts With the Brain

Human brain glowing lateral viewThe brain is more complex than any computer ever invented. It is the central operator of every part of you; nothing (well, almost nothing) happens without starting first in the brain. So it makes sense that my life coaching is so brain-oriented.

Call it the hypnotist in me, but it doesn’t make sense to start anywhere else. While some life-coaches like to start you on an exercise program or a new technique, or to refer you to a whole bunch of other consultants, I like to start very simply with your brain. I find the mental habits you have that are restraining you from progress.

I might decide hypnosis is necessary to fix certain problems, but I can also determine that hypnosis is not necessary. I have people who come to me for hypnosis alone, hypnosis and life-coaching, or just life-coaching. But no matter where you land on that spectrum, all my therapy starts with the brain — and nowhere else. Call my office at 212-599-3195.
