Health Initiatives is offering group wellness coaching this fall to help YOU take control again and find meaningful ways to reach your health goals. There are six wellness coaching groups offered this fall beginning Monday, Sept. 17, to help you optimize your life. These small groups have limited space and \u003Cstrong\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/healthinitiatives.gatech.edu\/support-services\/wellness-coaching\u0022\u003Eregistration is required.\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EWellness coaching uses self-discovery and reflection to better understand what your personal strengths are and how you can apply these to be the best version of yourself. Some areas of exploration may include fitness, sleep, time management, organization, future aspirations, relationships and healthy eating. This program is recommended for all students \u0026mdash; undergraduate or graduate \u0026mdash; who want to make changes in their lives through discussion and reflection.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ECoaches are not experts who analyze problems, give advice, or prescribe solutions. Rather, coaches encourage personal responsibility so participants use reflective thinking, self-discovery, and self-efficacy to discover their full potential. The coaching sessions are dictated by whatever participants want to discuss during the session.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003ETo get the coaching started we compiled a list of quotes to help you start thinking about your approach to wellness differently.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EDon\u0026rsquo;t just let us tell you how great it is, the experts already know\u0026hellip;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u0026ldquo;The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.\u0026rdquo; \u0026mdash;Aristotle\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003EIt\u0026rsquo;s important to start thinking of our bodies as one holistic unit.
