WHAT IS ADD COACHING ALL ABOUT?STRATEGIES ....SUPPORT .....ACCOUNTABILITY ....STRUCTURE... SUCCESSADD coaching is a non-judgmental, collaborative partnership focused on action, accountability and measurable results. It's not about fixing what is wrong but rather finding what is right and building on it. Together we fashion straight forward solutions to complex problems and bridge the frustrating gap between ability and performance. As coaches, we begin by identifying the real challenges and obstacles that are frustrating you and then determine where you are now, where you want to go and how you're going to get there. Next we get really clear on the big picture as well as the individual things that are creating it so that we can design your vision for what success will look like. Once we do this we break it down into concrete goals and strategies for getting there; reducing each goal to manageable parts, to smallest possible action / next steps.

Curiously, it is counterintuitive and always astounding to my clients when they experience the process of breaking big overwhelming...more

Many people say they digest their food well, but complain of heartburn, rumbling, bloating, gas, constipation, or diarrhea, all of which are signs of poor digestion.Chinese medicine is best known for acupuncture, which is an ancient healing modality using hair-fine needles to manipulate the body's energy and enhance healing. More and more western institutions, such as the World Health Organization and the Mayo Clinic are recognizing the value of acupuncture in the treatment of pain and various illnesses. Acupuncture can be very effective for digestive problems, and combining food therapy to acupuncture increase the effectiveness of the treatments.The Chinese view food as medicine that you get to eat three times a day, and digestion as important to health as the food that's eaten.
