I've been sampling what Harvard Pilgrim Health Care has to offer for Wellness coaching. It's an interesting start, but from a practical standpoint just another part of the self-delusion of self-improvement.
My road to wellness - HPHC style:
1. Filled out the online Health Assessment. I've learned that I need to exercise more and eat healthier. Also, is it wrong that the questions about stress and hating my job/co-workers made me laugh out loud?
2. Got a call from the Health Coach to see if I'd like further information or phone coaching. For informational purposes only... sounds like the disclaimer on an herbal remedy.
3. Had my first coaching call, where I set one goal to start - exercise 3-5 times per week on my tread mill or home gym in the mornings. I am actually thinking about doing this more, because he's going to call me again in a few weeks to check on my progress.
4. I have actually been working out some days, and doing a lot of sanding/painting on the weekends (which counts officially).
I'm not feeling any healthier yet, but I am thinking about feeling healthier. I guess that's baby steps.
