Week 1: Exploring the Foundations of Health Coaching

In the first week of the Health Coach Training Program (HTCP) at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), the focus is on understanding the program's mission to improve health and happiness, and the role of health coaches.

• Participants learn the importance of self-reflection and intention setting, which are foundational skills for personal growth and client coaching.
• The curriculum includes setting personal goals for the year, and participants engage in activities to understand their intentions and feelings.
• A highlight is a talk by Dr. Mehmet Oz, who emphasizes that people change behaviors based on feelings, not knowledge, and stresses making healthy choices easy.
• Assignments in reflection and intention are part of the week, paving the way for habit-forming strategies crucial in health coaching.
• Participants are encouraged to explore methods that integrate lessons into their daily lives, balancing personal schedules and learning outcomes.
