About HAPPY WHOLE HUMAN®

HAPPY WHOLE HUMAN® provides a research-based framework for evaluating and understanding intrapersonal and relationship dynamics and tools to help individuals improve their relationships with themselves and others in order to achieve radiant health, happiness, and fulfillment. We give you the tools to empower your clients as they relax, reflect, and snap out of unconscious patterns via mindfulness and holistic wellness to overcome obstacles and improve their lives and relationships across the board. Our innovative programs provide you with cutting-edge tools, structure, benchmarking assessment, and support to guide your clients to assess and overcome the personal and interpersonal challenges that contribute to chronic stress, interpersonal drama, disassociation, dissatisfaction, apathy, and burn out.  In this way, the HAPPY WHOLE HUMAN® holistic program improves on traditional ways of thinking about wellness, adding specific key components of mental, emotional, and relationship health. Our approach is unique in that it bridges the divide between researchers and clinicians.

 

Learning Philosophy

We believe there are eight essential elements that are conducive to our coach training.

 

1. Every class has its own unique community.

2. Students need the opportunity to practice skills in a safe environment.

3. Each student is unique and must have a stimulating educational environment to grow physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially.

4. Students should be able to feel safe to express themselves and accept themselves for who they are, as well embrace the differences of others.

5. Our instructors act as consistent, ethical, transparent, and reliable guides providing relevant lessons in engaging ways and adapting as necessary based on student feedback.

6. Passion for the practice of coaching will be demonstrated and inspired.

7. We incorporate hands-on learning, cooperative learning, projects, and individual work that engage and activate students learning.

8. Technology must be incorporated and requisite tech communication skills (email, MS Word, Zoom proficiency, etc.) demonstrated.
