Your coaching guide to a peaceful night’s rest, Devin Burke, discusses whether Sleep Coaching actually works and the role the client and coach play in a successful interaction.
Does Sleep Coaching Work?
The short answer is it depends.
Multiple factors influence the success of sleep coaching for any person here are three essential elements that can determine how successful sleep coaching will be for any individual.
Number One
Your willingness as a client is the most crucial requirement for any coaching endeavor to be successful. Often people say and believe they are ready for a change in their life, but unfortunately, they are not.
Being open to the temporary discomfort of taking one or two steps back to facilitate taking three or four steps forward is essential. The willingness to change and implement behavioral and psychological shifts is a necessity.
We have to take responsibility for our health for health coaching or sleep coaching to work.
Number Two
The skill of your coach is equally important in achieving the best results. Like anything else, there are talented individuals who care deeply about what they do and the results, yet others are not so experienced and may not care so much about what they are doing.
For example, there are two Harvard-trained doctors; one cares about their clients, loves what they do, and constantly learns and practices new cutting-edge techniques.
The second doctor is in it for the paycheck, not really caring about their patients. They are not staying up to date with the latest techniques and tools.
Which doctor would you want to go to?
The obvious choice is the doctor who cares, constantly honing their skills and expanding their knowledge. The same thing goes for your coach; the skill of a coach is critically important when you speak of results and whether sleep coaching works.
Number Three
There are numerous methodologies, philosophies, systems, and approaches to sleep coaching. Certain of these work better for some people, and others are better suited for a different audience.
Your sleep coaching results are dependent on the following:
- The Approach
- Type of Insomnia
- Your Willingness to Change
- The Skill of the Coach
Does sleep coaching work?
It depends on the client’s willingness, readiness for change, and openness. It depends on the coach’s skill set and the system or approach.
