About Neuroscience Coaching
A coaching process informed by neuroscience is based on foundations from life coaching, where the client is the expert on themselves.
A life coach will not give you advice or tell you what to do, but they will create space and opportunity for you to safely find what is best for you.
In neuroscience informed coaching, the coach additionally applies principles from neuroscience to help you improve your personal or professional life.
As a Neuroscience informed Coach, I will offer information, tools, and techniques based in neuroscience including:
-
As a Neuroscience Coach, with your permission, I will offer knowledge about how the brain works, including neuroplasticity and how different brain regions affect behaviour and emotions.
-
As a Neuroscience Coach I will create space for the you to explore how your unique brain and nervous system have developed. It is to raise your awareness about the behavioural patterns your brain has learnt to be effective and safe, given your past experience.
-
As a Neuroscience Coach I will offer insights from neuroscience, to support you in changing your habits and behaviours. I do that by leveraging knowledge on how the brain forms and retains new patterns as well as how it rebuilds and changes existing ones.
-
I will help you understand the neurological basis of your emotions as well as support you in developing strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and other emotional responses more effectively.
-
As a Neuroscience Coach, I can offer somatic techniques to aid in the coaching process. Somatic techniques focus on the body-mind connection, emphasising the importance of bodily sensations and movements in emotional and psychological healing and well-being. Somatic techniques might include breathing, body scanning, meditation and mindfulness, movement, touch and more.

By understanding the brain's reward system, a Neuroscience Coach I can assist you in setting and achieving goals in a way that aligns with how the brain processes motivation and rewards.
