Are you searching for the
reason God created you? Overview

(your dreams, values, and vision). Preparation – What has your life prepared you for? (your life experiences and destiny events). Calling – Where is the Master sending you?

Do you desire to live a
full and healthy life? Overview
It is important to make wellness a priority in all three areas of body, soul, and spirit. We would love to come along side you and help you see how your daily habits and schedule impact your total wellness. If you would like to experience improvement in your level of wellness, we will discuss what goals you want to set to bring about those desired changes.
Body, Soul & Spirit
We are all comprised of body, soul, and spirit. We need to care for our bodies by getting regular exercise, eating nutritious foods, and making sure to rest enough. Our souls require care in the form of connection with God, ourselves, and others. We were created for intimacy; therefore some of our basic soul requirements are acceptance, encouragement, appreciation, and comfort. Our personal lives, daily habits, community, church, and family are all part of our soul wellness. God has also created us for relationship with Him. Our spiritual wellness is impacted by the intimacy of our relationship with God. Book
We will use tools to determine your total wellness satisfaction. One of those tools is the book below. Fit to Serve, by Coach Powers, walks you through establishing a healthy lifestyle of fitness so you are able to have the energy and focus to accomplish what God is calling you to do.

Do you want to live a more balanced life?
Overview
Balance is important to our overall health and satisfaction with life. It is vital to have balance in the various areas of our lives, not feeling as if we are being pulled in too many directions. In order to live balanced lives, our views of and habits surrounding success, enjoyment, and rest must allow us to live full lives, making decisions that protect that which brings us fulfillment. What Balance Is and Isn't
Many people, when thinking of balance, have an image in their heads similar to the first 2 pictures below:
A scale: Sometimes we think that to achieve balance we must get rid of something in order to add something to the other side. At times work becomes heavy, upsetting the balance with family and our social lives. How do we achieve a healthy balance on a regular basis?
Walking a tightrope: We focus so much on making sure we are taking the right steps toward balance, that all of our focus is on the next step. We may lose sight of what is going on around us in the lives of our friends and family because we think that if we make one wrong decision, we will fall.
However…
We will walk with you through what a balanced life could look like for you. Together we will seek God for what ultimately energizes you and brings you fulfillment each day. |

Are you walking into or coming
out of a transition in life? Overview
Transition may be one of the most overlooked areas of an individual’s health and well-being. These seasons of life however, when navigated correctly with God as Guide, can be some of the most fulfilling and important seasons of life. We want to walk with you through this season, helping you navigate the various celebrations and joys that come with transition as well as some of the sorrows, griefs, and stresses that accompany it. As we coach you through transition, we will help you to involve God in the entire process and to see Him in areas where you may have overlooked His presence and His moving in this season. |
