This comprehensive volume offers ideas, examples, and guidance to help coaches develop skills in their coaching practice, specifically in the areas of health and wellbeing as they are experienced by their clients.
The book also explores the growing importance of wellbeing coaching within the wider coaching world and the health sector. Starting with definitions of wellbeing and health coaching, then delving into health and wellbeing issues faced by clients, and tools for coaches along with their practical applications, this book includes theory, case studies, and reflection exercises so that readers can use it in a personal and practical way.
The Health and Wellbeing Coaches’ Handbook is an essential resource for coach practitioners, supervisors, and consultants working with clients, as well as for students in post-graduate programmes, including coaching, health and allied health professional programmes, and human resource professionals focusing on employee wellness.
'This timely publication addresses the escalating global demand for health and wellbeing coaching. With each chapter underpinned by rigorous research, the book stands as a beacon of knowledge, insights and inspiration to professionals dedicated to advancing this dynamic field.'

'Now is the perfect time for the publication of this book on the science and practice of wellbeing coaching. In the wake of a pandemic that brought the world to its knees, it has become increasingly clear that human wellbeing is the province of all coaching, whether in leadership, career, team/organizations or specifically, health. We have all become aware that wellbeing -- in every human domain -- is critical for success in life, which is why this book is important and well-timed. The editors have compiled a rich set of resources both scholarly and practical to support coaches in navigating the complexities of modern life that plague us all: time management, diet, lifestyle, balance, motivation, technology overload and so on. This book will be a "go-to" resource for coaches committed to coaching with compassion, while grounded in science. A must-read!'
Jeffrey Hull, Executive Director, Institute of Coaching
'Since Hippocrates created holistic medicine, scholars have hunted for mind-body-spirit links. This is an amazing compilation of essays on coaching Parasympathetic Nervous System activation (i.e., renewal), somatic techniques and emotional contagion to improve well-being. Read it, your future health, happiness and joy, and that of your family, friends and colleagues at work is at stake!'
