HEALTH COACHING
OTHER SERVICES
Enliven Wellness coaches are trained as
behavior specialists and utilize a motivational
interviewing approach to coaching. Research
has shown that self-change is a staged process
and that we move from not thinking about
behavioral change, to thinking about it, to
planning to change, then testing out ways to do
it before we actually start. Enliven Wellness
coaches guide your employees through these
stages to bring them closer to their wellness
goals.
Wellness Consulting and Coordination - Our
wellness consultants will meet with you to
identify your company's wellness needs,
priorities, and challenges. We will collaborate
with you to help you reduce your organization's
health care costs and increase employee
productivity.

our clients' needs. We can assist with health
fairs, screenings and assessments, data
collection and reporting. We also offer grocery

positions. Looking for other wellness related
services? Just ask, we can help!

Testimonials
School Teacher, Connie M. of Tampa FL had a major lifestyle change.
“Classes were very informative, the instructor and the wellness coach kept me motivated. The results
from the assessments were really helpful to mark my progress: I lost 11 Lbs in 12 weeks, my cholesterol
went down 24 points, and my body fat percentage went down 5 points. I’m grateful I was offered this
opportunity.”
City Employee, Edwin M. of Clearwater, FL expressed his appreciation.
"I’m glad to have quit smoking. The presenter was excellent. I appreciate the positive approach, helpful
sessions and getting the encouragement to continue in this lifestyle to a healthier place. Thanks for
providing these resources for city employees.”
City Employee, Allie S. of Clearwater, FL changed her eating habits and saw results.
"I used to drink 1-2 liter bottles of Pepsi per day, never water. I changed to no diet soda (occasionally 1
diet soda per month). I eat more veggies and switched to water all day- every day. Also, I switched to a
toddler plate/bowl for portion control. I got rid of chips, junk food, ice cream and cookies. I lowered my
BMI 5 points, my body fat by 8%, and lost 11 lbs in the past 8 months."

It’s Your Move
Do you want to be healthier, happier, have more energy, and enjoy more of your free time? This
program will get your body moving and teach you how to reduce stress. It consists of four stress
management classes and four stress-reducing movement classes. Your Enliven coach will be there all
along the way to motivate and inspire healthy lifestyle change as you navigate the possibilities of finding
a work/life balance that brings a sense of calm and control to your life.
Walk Your Way to Wellness
In this comprehensive walking and nutrition basics program we focus on walking safety, program design, and motivation. For the nutrition component, we talk about what “real” food is and what it does for you. All participants will receive a food and step tracking diary, and access to a health coach for the duration of the program. You will “walk away” feeling empowered by your newly established walking routine and knowing how to make the food you eat work for you. An absolute MUST for anyone who is tired of feeling unmotivated to exercise, enduring bad eating habits, and seeing poor results.
Presentation Style Education Programs
Our specialty education classes are higher-level programs taught in a presentation format by our
credentialed health and wellness professionals, complete with course manuals and materials. A high
level of service, coordination and reporting comes with these programs that run on a six to 12 week
schedule. We tailor and customize the programs according to our clients’ priorities, goals and budget.
Weighing on Wellness
This interactive 6-week program is designed to educate you on how to achieve not only an ideal body
weight, but more importantly, a better quality of life. You will learn the many different ways in which
the negative effects of eating poorly can present themselves and create a new outlook on the food you
are eating. This class goes beyond the basics and dives into the nitty-gritty of nutrition to help you
navigate through the conflicting trends to find a way of eating that is manageable for you.
From Mindless to Mindful Eating
“Mindless to Mindful Eating” explores the influences that govern
the way we eat, when we eat, what we eat and how much we eat.
Based partly on the books Mindless Eating by Brian Wansink, M.D.
and Mindful Eating by Jan Chozen Bays, Ph.D., this class covers a full
spectrum of approaches to looking at the issue of eating without
thought or intention. Experts state the difference between
- 8 -
“hunger,” the physiological need for food, and “appetite,” the psychological desire to eat. Recognizing
and being mindful of your emotions is a crucial factor in helping anyone change their behaviors towards
food.
Over the past 25 years, “mindful” practices in general, have been shown to have a positive impact on
many areas of psychological and physical health, including stress, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and
heart disease. Whether you are looking to lose weight, feel more in control of your eating choices,
improve your relationship with food or just find more peace and balance in your daily meal routine, this
class is for you.
Mindfully Stress-Free
Is stress overwhelming you and keeping you from living
the life you want? Do you want to be healthier, happier,
have more energy and enjoy your free time little more?
In the “Mindfully Stress-Free” classes you will learn how
to manage stress through mindfulness activities while
creating a better work/life balance. Our highly qualified
instructors will help you navigate your way through the
many ways to decrease stress leading you to a happier
and more productive lifestyle.
Disease Management Programs
Through education, group and individual coaching we present the necessary tools to help your high-risk
employees get their health back on track. This program is customizable and can include: individual
counseling and follow-up sessions, group classes, and follow-up. Your program will be lead by a
Registered Dietitian, Registered Nurse or Medical Doctor in conjunction with wellness coaches for
behavior change and lifestyle coaching.

diabetic employees get their health back on track. This program is customizable and can include:

High Blood Pressure Prevention & Management
Through education and group coaching we present the necessary tools to help your employees who are
at risk or currently suffer from High Blood Pressure (HTN) get their health back on track. This program is
customizable and can include: individual counseling (extra cost), follow-up sessions, group classes, heart
disease prevention education and follow-up.
Workshops
Our workshops are taught by wellness coaches who specialize in behavior change. The coaches will present the group with information, and engage participants to discuss their ideas and points of view, helping them come to their own conclusions about why they want to make changes.
In these workshops we deal with breaking down emotional barriers, vision planning, goal setting, stress management, and identifying personal motivators and one’s support team. Enliven coaches work with a “readiness to change” model that helps participants take charge of their own decisions and make positive steps toward permanent change.
Below are our most popular workshop descriptions. We do have more available, so if
there is a topic of interest that you do not see here, please ask! All of the topics below can be done as a one-hour workshop, or longer upon request.
Eat Real Food. Period
“Eat Real Food. Period” is an interactive nutritional education
workshop that gets to the bottom line of how to eat for optimal
health and wellness. By reducing packaged & processed foods,
eating mostly fresh vegetables and fruit, high quality protein and
healthy fats along with small portions of whole (non-processed)
grains we can experience the health and vitality that comes along
with eating “real food”. For any health plan to be successful, balance & variety are key! We will discuss
how to combine foods to create delicious balanced meals that are both satisfying and nourishing.
Life Balance & Conscious Choice
Life is full of choices, every moment of every day. When you are feeling balanced, you see the
opportunities in those choices. When you are out of balance, you are overwhelmed by them. The Life
- 10 -
Balance & Conscious Choice workshop gives you the tools to find that balance again so that you can be
happy and energized about what lies ahead. By making conscious choices, and really taking time to think
about your decisions, you will be able to see what is truly important which will open up more time and
energy for the things that make you happiest.
Mindful Eating Mindful Eating Workshop explores the influences that govern the way we eat, when we eat, what we eat and how much we eat. Over the past 25 years, “mindful” practices in general, have been shown to have a positive impact on many areas of psychological and physical health, including stress, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, and heart disease. Whether you are looking to lose weight, feel more in control of your eating choices, improve your relationship with food or just find more peace and balance in your daily meal routine, this workshop is for you.
Stress Management for a Balanced Workday
This experiential workshop offers easy and practical tools to use before, during and after your workday

of your life as you experience yoga postures, breathing exercises and relaxation techniques that can be
done at your desk, during a meeting or even while driving. These simple to learn and easy to do

Onsite Therapeutic Massage Therapy
Who doesn’t love a good massage? Massage increases
employees’ performance and productivity, reduces
adverse effects associated with repetitive work tasks and
prolonged sitting positions, reduces stress and tension
and improves good feelings about the workplace.
Massage can be done in a specialized massage chair or on
a massage table. Sessions generally run 5-30 minutes but
can last as long as an hour, depending on your needs. The
program can be initiated by employee or employer and
funded by individual or corporate budget.
Chair massage: A popular service that does not
require a private room and can be offered at the
employees’ workstation, in a conference room or office.
The massage therapist uses a special chair for the
massage sessions that can range from 5-20 minutes.
During the massage, the recipient is seated and fully
clothed. No oil is used. The massage therapist uses
techniques that focus on the upper part of the body –
neck, head, shoulders, back, and arms.
Table Massage: Some work places prefer to offer the
employees a longer and more relaxing massage session. We come to your work site and transform a
conference room or private office into a soothing stress-free zone for the day! Our therapists bring a
massage table, linens, music and lighting to create the perfect environment for relaxation. Massages
may be scheduled on the half hour and hour.
Why is on-site chair massage so popular?

Participant Testimonials/Class Comments:
“I signed up for this program because I was discouraged by my inability to lose weight even though I was
watching what I ate and exercising. During the program I met and exceeded my weight loss goal of 5
pounds. I enjoyed Tracie’s knowledge and enthusiasm. She made it interesting and fun without making
me feel guilty if I messed up or didn’t meet a weekly goal.”
“Great class! I am encouraged and excited. Grocery store, here I come. Mission: Real Food!!”
“Great program, thank you.”
“I met my goal of eating less junk food. I don’t even buy it anymore”
“Future classes should not have a 2 week break. This caused the class to dwindle”
“I signed up for the program because I needed to start watching for my medical needs. To eat better,
live better and healthier. Tracie was great. She seemed to understand what we were going through in
out eating habits. I am an emotional eater and after a recent situation, I was finally able to not go for
food. “
“I enjoyed the different ideas that were presented on the healthier food choices and to check labels for
no more than 5 ingredients.”
“I enjoyed learning about labels. I was surprised to learn more about fat free foods. I also enjoy it when
you issue a challenge at the end of class.”
“I enjoyed learning some simple exercises that I can do at work. Thank you for a good class.”
