Diploma in Human Potential Coaching

Human Potential Coaching is a whole-person mindfulness-based approach to coaching, a dynamic and creative partnership between coach and client, which is designed to help individuals identify and resolve the limitations and blocks that are preventing them from thriving and flourishing as human beings. At the heart of the Human Potential Coaching model is the willingness to embrace every experience that life has to offer, the development of acceptance, awareness and non-attachment, the ability to process and integrate emotions and a commitment to values and strengths-based actions as the foundations upon which goals are made and life is lived.

  • Be among the first in a new generation of human potential coaches that are trained to help their clients live to their fullest potential by using the raw material of the present moment as a gateway into personal change
  • Receive training in a series of innovative somatic techniques, mind-training tools and nutritional approaches for releasing the blocks to human thriving and flourishing.
  • Become highly proficient and effective in facilitating balance and integration of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual dimensions of your clients
