One of the founders of positive psychology, Christopher Peterson, once summarized what positive psychology was all about by saying, “Other people matter” (Peterson, 2008). Positive relationships, or the lack thereof, undoubtedly have a significant impact on our well-being. Numerous studies have shown that good relationships help us live longer and happier lives. Our sense of purpose and belonging can be maximized by having healthy relationships.

According to the power tool, The Rollercoaster vs. Owning Your Relationship Needs, the first step in owning your attachment needs is becoming aware of them. To own them, you must be more deliberate and effective in expressing your relationship needs. If you’re dating, knowing whether or not your potential partner can and wants to meet these needs can help you make a decision. It will make it easier for your partner to meet your needs, whether you are in a committed or short-term relationship. It eliminates the need for guesswork and helps your partner understand potential thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Numerous elements, such as attitudes and beliefs, social norms, and clients’ perceptions of the resources at their disposal and the obstacles they must overcome, have an impact on behavior change. In order for interventions to be most effective, they must be tailored to specific clients and their contexts, since different clients may be affected by these factors in very different ways. Understanding theories and models of change can be a helpful step for coaches to take in order to determine the stage at which their clients are in terms of the desired change and to tailor interventions and emphasize relevant core competencies in accordance.

(Jon Kabat-Zinn, 1990) Or, as stated in Mindfulness Nation UK’s annual report, “mindfulness means paying attention to what’s happening in the present moment in the mind, body, and external environment, with an attitude of curiosity and kindness.” (Mindful Nation UK, 2015) Mindfulness meditation is one of the methodologies for meditation. It is broadly defined as practicing nonjudgmental attention to experiences in the present moment, or “practicing being.” It is advised for meditators to either sit or lie still while observing rather than controlling their breathing. The only thing that is required of meditators is for them to simply accept, note, and let go of their thoughts and feelings as they divert their attention.

In order to help the clients in these three situations feel more at ease and less helpless, the Helplessness vs. Control coaching power tool is presented.

The essay that follows will first look at how helplessness and control are defined before delving into two crucial psychological ideas that are central to this coaching model: learned helplessness and locus of control. The Power Tool will then be discussed, along with how to use it in a coaching setting, after that. In the article’s conclusion, there will be a case study and some coaching questions.

CAYA (Come As You Are)

A Coaching Model By Lichenyang Zhou

The target demographic for this CAYA (Come As You Are) coaching model is single women in their early 20s to late 30s who want to be satisfied, fulfilled, and happy in “their” relationships. The key to coaching is understanding that we never tell our clients what to do; instead, we assist them in identifying and forging their own course through life (ICA course material). Regardless of how many copies of a dating book are sold, the strategy described within might not still be suitable for a certain client. This coaching model, which aims to help clients understand themselves, must be used as a foundation. In a close connection, take into account the wants, values, and preferences. Analyze her sense of self-worth, satisfaction, and well-being both inside and outside of her intimacy. Only then will the search for love begin.

Enhancing Communication Through Relationship Coaching

Relationship coaching is about assisting individuals in making the most supportive and aligned choices toward achieving their goals; it is not about preserving current relationships. Coaches must be careful not to steer the client in one direction or another based on their perceptions or the outcome they believe is best for the client. These are highly personal journeys, and it is critical that coaches maintain their unbiased, objective roles. Humans thrive in relationships that are of high quality. When our relationships are positive, we feel happy, and when we are happy, we continue to cherish our relationships and consider our lives to be meaningful. It would then be logical and enjoyable to invest proactively in self-awareness and emotional intelligence.

Shame vs. Self-Compassion coaching, developing strong self-compassion in the face of shame is a lifelong practice. However, as with any real change, the more clients practice it, the more ingrained and effective it becomes. With the rapid implementation of this compassionate mindset toward oneself and others, the experience of shame will be shorter, less deep, and easier to mitigate. This idea means that arguments may be avoided, communication will be clearer, and support will be more easily shared within relationships, resulting in a greater sense of trust, safety, and authentic connection.

This GARDEN model provides a structure for clients to explore their goals, values, beliefs, challenges, strengths, and supports, among other things. Clients gain self-awareness and self-worth as a result of this experience, allowing them to confidently create practical action plans that are aligned with their genuine values, which, when combined with intentional accountability, results in authentic behavior. My coaching model is influenced by Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience by Brené Brown Authenticity is a need for connection, she writes, which speaks to the core goal of my model – to assist my clients in gaining awareness that feeds into worth-driven authentic and purposeful behavior, which is required to (re)build meaningful connections.
