Circle of Life Coach Programs and Training
- Health Action and Circle of Life Health and Wellness Coaching have been at the forefront of the wellness movement for over 20 years. Our certified health and wellness coach training graduates are working in every venue – hospitals, corporations, EAP’s, specialty clinics and wellness franchises, schools and universities, integrative medicine programs, faith based health ministries, social service agencies, fitness centers, YMCAs and the military.
"Our social services, health education, nursing, OT and PT staff were trained to be Circle of Life health Coaches. Since 1998 we utilize the Circle of Life process in our 10-week “Medical Symptom Reduction Program”, which is a great success. Our biggest contract was with an insurance company who ran a pilot for 2 years and found their members who completed this program decreased their utilization of healthcare benefits by 57%. So other insurance’s followed their decision to cover. We have woven it in to all of our support group activities for patients and use it as a component of our staff wellness program, and is also being used in our community outreach programming."
Dr. Michael Harris, Medical Director, St. Charles Medical Center, Bend, Oregon

Why Wellness Coaching? Why Circle of Life? Why Now?
We are in an historic era for health care and medicine — and in the empowerment of people to take greater ownership of their health, life and destiny. Medical research demonstrates that the most dangerous diseases are preventable through very reasonable lifestyle changes. Social science research shows that setting goals and receiving even minimal support radically increases the chances for an individual's successes in life.
Doctors, insurance companies, Congress, even the President cannot legislate this powerful change — but people can. People informed and inspired with coaching and support can become the change that this country needs.
THE BUZZ – wellness, coaching, prevention, mindfulness, self-care, mind-body practice, productivity enhancement, chronic disease self-managed care, integrative medicine, holistic lifestyle, stress mastery. These are the keywords in the emerging health care environment.
- The Circle of Life Health and Wellness Coaching System is carefully designed for rapid training and turn around. It is one of the most respected health and wellness coaching systems with 30 hours of training plus comprehensive follow-up.

Circle of Life Success Stories

"The Circle of Life process, is a teachable and reproducible process that has been used successfully to improve outcomes such as patient's self-efficacy. This methodology is not just health education or an action to improve patient compliance, but also offers cornerstone group dynamic processes which have been documented to reduce mortality, prevent and reduce disease and improve health outcomes.
It can teach people not only about their disease processes, but also about stress reduction, self-care, self responsibility and accountability, and implementation of more healthful life styles. I recommend this wonderful health education tool for any organization where employee or client health improvement outcome is a key goal."
