I\u2019ve personally trained many, taught advanced wellness coaching classes, done mentor coaching with students on the ICF Path, reviewed hundreds of case studies and listened to hundreds of coaching session recordings.<strong>\u00a0I drew upon what I learned from these experiences in my revisions of the book and feel that the new edition provides enough new material to warrant recommending the purchase of this second edition by those who already have the first.<\/strong>\u00a0Many pages were deleted and the new total is over fifty pages greater than the old edition\u2026over 300 pages!<\/p>\n<p>All of that teaching and mentorship helped me realize where coaching students, and practicing coaches, need more guidance when it comes to coaching and to wellness coaching in particular. I found the places where students get confused, where they are unsure how to proceed, where they get stuck, where their progress slows down.<strong>\u00a0Those thousands of hours taught me what coaches need to know more about.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>In the new edition there is more on the actual coaching skills that wellness coaches need to be effective<\/strong>. Both the mindset, the facilitative conditions of coaching that create \u201ccoaching presence\u201d, and the techniques that increase coaching effectiveness are elaborated upon. I found that coaches often need help going beyond exploration and must have skills and methods to \u201cforward the action\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The most important and complete revisions are found in Chapter Eight.\u00a0<strong>We are told over and over again that the Wellness Mapping 360\u00b0 Methodology \u2122 is what coaches find most valuable and in this new edition we\u2019ve refined it much further.<\/strong>\u00a0So many coaches just do \u201cgoal setting\u201d with their clients.\u00a0<strong>Here we show how to really co-create a fully integrated wellness plan for lasting lifestyle change.<\/strong>This structure and methodology allows the coach or coaching program to \u201cget behavioral about being holistic\u201d. We work with the whole person, including mind, body, spirit and environment (real wellness), and yet \u201cput legs under it\u201d with a behavioral process and tools that allow for greater tracking, accountability and support.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Wellness Coaching For Lasting Lifestyle Change<\/em>\u00a0has touched lives around the world.<\/strong>\u00a0It is so gratifying when I hear from people across the United States and Canada about how powerful the book has been for them, both personally and professionally. Additionally phone calls, emails and wellness coach training class registrations show up from Australia, Brazil, Portugal, the Philippines, Russia, Poland, Ireland, and all over.\u00a0<strong>I am both touched and excited to know that through its international distribution, we truly are CREATING ALLIES FOR A HEALTHY WORLD.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/store\/wellness-coaching-for-lasting-lifestyle-change.shtml\" target=\"_blank\"><em><strong>Wellness Coaching For Lasting Lifestyle Change, 2nd Edition<\/strong><\/em><\/a><br \/>\n(<a style=\"color: #743399;\" href=\"https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/store\/wellness-coaching-for-lasting-lifestyle-change.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/store\/wellness-coaching-for-lasting-lifestyle-change.shtml<\/a>)<ins datetime=\"2014-07-07T19:23:14+00:00\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"883\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/blog\/new-home-whole-person\/new-building-front-view\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/New-building-front-view.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,899\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"New-building-front-view\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;New building front view&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Front view of the new building.&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/New-building-front-view-300x224.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/wholeperson.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/05\/New-building-front-view-1024x767.jpg\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"size-full wp-image-883\" src=\"https:\/\/realbalancewellness.files.wordpress.com\/2014\/07\/medium5.jpg?w=640&amp;h=427\" alt=\"Michael Arloski, Ph.D., PCC, CWP\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 2007\u00a0Wellness Coaching For Lasting Lifestyle Change\u00a0became the first comprehensive health and wellness coaching book published.
