Lifestyle coaching is a type of therapy that has become increasingly familiar over the last 7 years. The term performance coaching first became popular in the USA where, together with Neuro Linguistic Programming, it became part of a revived super wave of awfully proactive therapy models.

In many ways both Coaching and Neuro Linguistic Programming are an answer against certain aspects of the Humanistic movement, in particular Humanistic Counselling. A problem of the human-centred therapy approach is that it is astonishingly reactive and not greatly proactive. Although this works terrific with some people, with other clients long periods of no exit in sight or low return for time and effort occur. Coaching and Neuro Linguistic Programming are both person-centred therapy in stance, focusing on improving a clients smiles rather than looking into the minefields of childhood, as in traditional psychoanalysis.

Life coaching is not about preaching to the coaching client what to do. This is a common misconception. Some success coaches are pretty successful in their business careers and then make the change to lifestyle coaching, assuming that they will at most be required to divulge their pearls of great wisdom with the lifestyle coaching client. Sharing pearls of wisdom is more like mentoring an apprentice in a specific environment. Lifestyle coaching is instead about life as a whole.
