What is Life Coaching?

In short, we would say Life Coaching is often a transformational, uplifting and extremely rewarding process that can change the way you think about yourself and the way you live your life. Life Coaching with More2life challenges any negative beliefs you have holding you back, allows you to see situations differently and makes you feel more positive about yourself and your life. Life Coaching usually lasts up to six sessions (but this can vary depending upon your specific requirements) and appointments are scheduled at regular intervals over a period of weeks/ months. The first session will focus on where you are currently, where you want to be and what you want to get out of coaching Click here for more information on Life Coaching.

What Life Coaching isn't

• Life Coaching is neither counselling nor therapy. Life Coaching focuses on the present and future – not the past

• Life Coaching at More2Life is mostly non-directional (in other words we won’t tell you what to do). We will open up your eyes to who you are and open up your mind to your possibilities.

What can I expect from my Life Coach?

• To conduct all meetings with dignity and respect
• To trust that you will never be judged
• To be supported and challenged where necessary (with your permission!)
• To listen and be patient
• To challenge any negative self beliefs that hold you back
• To be committed to assist you in making positive changes and getting you the results you want!

What is required of me as a Life Coaching client?

• To be open and honest at all times
• Be willing and open to attempting new ways of achieving your goals
• To call for (or attend) appointments on time
• To arrange payment in advance of the sessions (if telephone coaching)

Can Life Coaching, NLP & Hypnosis be combined in a session?

At more2life, we believe in getting results quickly for you so if we feel that you would benefit from some NLP Techniques or hypnosis in a coaching session then we will utilise them with your agreement and time permitting. Occasionally it may be appropriate to book a separate session specifically for NLP/ Hypnosis to allow sufficient time to fully focus on your individual requirements.

What is NLP?

NLP stands for Neuro Linguistic Programming. In short, it is a powerful way of learning to run your own brain and thoughts with remarkable results. NLP was created by John Grinder and Richard Bandler from the University of California, Santa Cruz in the mid 1970s. Paul McKenna is one of the most famous UK Master NLP practitioners and champions of NLP. It works by recoding, repatterning and reprogramming the way information is stored in your brain so that it flattens out the neural charge and any negative emotion or behaviour associated with it. The techniques enable you acquire new skill-sets, eliminate unwanted behaviours and beliefs, and achieve quick tangible results that never fail to surprise and delight people.

The name Neuro Linguistic Programming relates to the following three areas:

Neuro - the mind and how we think

Linguistic – how we use language and how it affects us giving an insight into a person’s thinking

Programming - how we sequence our thinking, behavioural patterns and actions to achieve our goals.

The other great thing about NLP is that it is content free so if you don’t want to talk about the detail of the ‘issue’ that you want to change, you don’t have to as we work with the structure of your thoughts not the detail

What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis can be described as an altered state of consciousness achieved when your mind and body are completely relaxed. This state of relaxation is completely natural and safe and you are aware and in control at all times during the session. Daydreaming or times when you have reached your destination but can’t recall the journey are also examples of hypnotic states in everyday life.

What will happen during an NLP/ Hypnosis session?

An NLP session aims to be both relaxed and enjoyable. It will be flexible and tailored to meet your needs. Initially an assessment of the presenting problem will be made and thereafter issues will be addressed by a combination of specific NLP techniques and methods including relaxation and hypnosis if required. At the end of a session a clear explanation of how a problem has been addressed will be given.

Are there any dangers or side effects to Hypnosis?

There are no substantiated cases of any harm coming to any person who has been hypnotised. After all, to be hypnotised only means that you are in a relaxed state! Hypnotherapy has been used since ancient times to provide a safe and drug free method of creating desired changes quickly. It is a relaxing natural process and there are no unpleasant or unwanted side effects. Being in a relaxed state allows your unconscious mind to be more receptive to new, beneficial suggestions. The British Medical Association and the American Medical Association have both endorsed the use of hypnotherapy since the 1950s.
