Health and Suppliments

More and more professionals are reclaiming a slice of their life thanks to personalized coaching. A mix of time management, prioritization, and psychometric tools are proving to be effective options in sorting out life by drawing and following action plans.

This form of coaching is coming as a blessing in disguise in today’s cutthroat world where competition has gone so intense that people often forget or neglect the true meaning of life.

From in.news.yahoo.com:

Gurgaon-based life skills trainer Yadhav Mehra, 44, who works with consultancies such as Ernst and Young, says the line between therapist and coach often gets blurred. “We can help clients sort out the clutter in their minds. Beyond that, we may have to refer them to a therapist or psychiatrist, who have better medical credentials.”

Mehra recalls a case where a telecom engineer was de-motivated because he wasn’t being promoted. “He was brilliant at his work, but couldn’t make professional chit chat. Probing further, I discovered his father had told him to avoid ‘useless talk’ as a child. This needed an altogether different kind of intervention.”

The need for a life coach is not limited to business executives alone. Anybody who faces insecurity in life can feel the urge to confide in a professional outside family.

Without revealing names, celebrity shrink Harish Shetty says three Mumbai-based high-profile clients from the world of politics, IT and media recently approached him to “help enhance their emotional hygiene, competency at work and personal relationships.”

Shetty claims that clients are ready to pay a sum of Rs. 2-5 lakh a month for giving their catharsis on a celebrity psychiatrist’s couch.
