Learn more about our lifestyle coaching program:

The Baraka Institute Lifestyle Coaching Program

Lifestyle coaching focuses on sustainable healthy lifestyle changes --- behavioral changes that enhance both the well-being and happiness of the client. The lifestyle coaching program specializes in fitness, lifestyle changes, stress management and realistic weight loss. The program’s design, factoring in realistic health targets and physical condition, stems absolutely from the client and is shaped solely by the client’s agenda on any scheduled day of a session.

The beauty of lifestyle coaching is that it supports clients’ efforts to attain a healthy lifestyle while providing the tools and techniques to not only reach their goals more rapidly but also maintain the changes for the rest of their lives.

What is lifestyle coaching?

Lifestyle coaching is based on the philosophy that when holistically balanced and well, living the lifestyle that suits your individuality, you are in alignment with your soul’s purpose; victorious. When correctly employed, lifestyle coaching allows you to more readily understand your higher sense of purpose and provides you with the tools necessary to achieve your lifestyle goals. Lifestyle coaching looks at the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of your life and works toward bringing those aspects into harmony.

A Lifestyle Coach works in partnership with you exploring your goals, habits, values, attitudes, perceptions, life choices, habits and barriers. You then discover and begin utilizing your unique talents, abilities, passions, desires and sense of purpose to manifest holistic wholeness, personal fulfillment and life success.

Who would benefit from lifestyle coaching?

Just about any one could benefit from life coaching, including those wishing to:

  • Set clear fitness and health priorities and goals
  • Find a solution to permanent weight management
  • Develop a support network of caring people
  • Improve time management, reduce stress and eliminate procrastination
  • Develop consistent motivation to maintain an exercise inclusive lifestyle
  • Sharpen skills, attitude and increase confidence
  • Understand the basis for current habits and methods for
    replacement with healthier ones
  • Take responsibility for follow-through on declarations
    made for desired lifestyle plan
  • Enjoy a more satisfying personal and/or professional life
  • Create a balanced, harmonious life

    Do you need lifestyle coaching?
  • Do you feel overwhelmed and stressed out?
  • Are you stuck in a life rut?
  • Are you unsatisfied with the body you’re in?
  • Are you familiar with healthy eating habits but don’t
    know how to make them yours and make them stick?
  • Are you neglecting yourself, your family, and/or your work?
  • Do you just react to life versus creating the life you want?
  • Are you seeking a personalized program which
    deals with your mindset, your unique situation and
    barriers to success, and helps you make changes that last?

Being healthy in mind and body is the foundation of a fulfilling life and peak performance - at home and work. Yet, you are often made to deal with myriad life challenges making it difficult to improve or maintain your body/mind wellness. You need a new approach.

Your life coach will help you break out of self-defeating behaviors instead of allowing the continuance of a purely reactive mode; set and achieve proactive goals and reward you for doing so! Your life coach will unfetter you so you may accomplish more than you thought possible!

How does the program work?

I Information Gathering

You provide background information through a comprehensive written questionnaire and orally during the first coaching session. This ensures the coaches are well-informed on your key issues, desired outcomes and agenda. You confirm that you are ready to make changes, discuss a personal vision and set priorities and realistic goals for the next 3 months. You agree to define and accomplish 3-5 interim goals, or small steps, toward the larger 3-month goal during the following week.

II Motivation & Strategy
Together you and your coach perform a comprehensive assessment of your current lifestyle, fitness habits and physical condition. You create a plan for motivation and exemplify the “you” that you would like to ultimately become. Using this current information and the description of your desired outcome, you jointly formulate achievable objectives that can be measured and assessed. Only by understanding your needs and desires will this partnership forward the achievement of your goals. The coach will help you seek inspiration from within and identify inner resources, providing tools invaluable during this program and after. You develop a strategy for the future, which empowers you to activate change.

In effect, you will have a comprehensive self-designed program, to include exercise and dietary behavior changes, tailored to your individual lifestyle and schedule along with personal goals (both short and long term) related to your focus in the lifestyle coaching program.

III The Journey

In each subsequent 60 minute coaching session, scheduled three times a month or as needed, you and your coach review the progress made toward the previous week's goals and either proceed to something new or develop a solution to overcome an obstacle. You then agree on a set of goals for the following week.

After a few weeks of coaching sessions, you should begin to notice improvements in your motivation as you begin to advance more strongly in the direction of your goals. Some may hit one or more obstacles in the second and third months, but both coaches and clients collaborate creatively to innovative solutions for overcoming each roadblock on the path to success.

IV Reflection and Beyond

At the end of 3 months, most clients have accomplished more than 70% of their 3-month goals. They are energized and confident about committing to further life improvements. If you are seriously ready to improve your life and are prepared to make the commitment for change, then you are ready to experience this program that will transform how you see yourself and the world around you. Why not live the dream?
