The Wheel of Life Satisfaction is a visual representation of the various components that life can be seen as consisting of. By rating your level of satisfaction for each component, you get a snapshot of which areas of your life need the most improvement. Those are then the areas that we would start with addressing in your personal life coaching.
To assist you in working out your ratings in each sector of the wheel, I have created a tool called the Life Satisfaction Calculator. You will find this tool on my main website on this page: Life Satisfaction Assessment.
Personal life coaching helps you identify what you need to do to reach maximum satisfaction in each aspect of life. It also helps you see what personal difficulties may have been blocking your efforts to achieve this level of satisfaction already. However, the real value of personal life coaching lies in its capacity to help you overcome your difficulties, so that you can be free to achieve what you want in life.

My approach to personal life coaching
As in counselling and psychotherapy the working relationship between the client and the therapist/coach is the single most important factor impacting the outcome of therapy/coaching. Basically, you need to feel that I really “get you”, that I understand where you are at in life and where you would like to get to, for your personal coaching to be optimally useful. You can read more about the similarities and differences between life coaching and counselling in the article “Life Coaching and Counselling” (opens in a new tab, on Integrating Awareness website).
Meaningful Life Coaching
I use the term Meaningful Life Coaching to indicate what my approach to personal life coaching is like. Meaningful Life Coaching recognises the importance of having a sense of meaning and purpose in your life. It keeps in clear perspective the “big questions” of life, the existential ground that forms the often overlooked backdrop to all that we fill our lives with. Only by taking an existential perspective on all your decisions, big and small, can you reach the happiness and joy that you truly wish for.

R.E.A.L. Life Coaching
The exact process of your personal coaching sessions is of course based on who you are as a person, what your situation is like, and what you want to achieve. Your sessions will be tailored around you, to suit your particular situation the best. Nevertheless, there are a few recurring principles that tend to come into focus for most of my coaching clients. E.g. the four components of R.E.A.L. Life Coaching – Responsibility, Empathy, Authenticity, and Limitlessness – which is a perspective to understand Meaningful Life Coaching from.

Mindfulness-based Life Coaching
My approach to personal life coaching also incorporates mindfulness practice. With mindfulness-based life coaching you will enhance your awareness of all aspects of your lived experience, rather than through “second-hand”, intellectual speculation. This helps you increase your understanding of yourself, and helps you see how you can achieve what you want. Click this link: to read more about Mindfulness Practice.
