About the Book and Topic:
This is the first book to wed common spiritual principles and coaching. In short, it intends to fill the void of material linking common spiritual principles with the coaching profession. Belf’s project fulfills an effort to publish resources that help bridge the gap between actionable, real-life pedagogy and the spiritual or intuitive aspect of coaching.
Coaching with Spirit’s purpose is five-fold: to advance the profession of coaching by explaining the role of spirit, giving concrete examples of when spirit is present, and suggesting reflections and applications for beginning and seasoned coaches; to increase coaches’ communications skills; to inform potential and budding coaches how to integrate spirit into their work; to present coaching leaders with perspectives on how spirituality supports and enhances their work; and to be used for skill enhancement by groups of coaches. As coaching continues to gain momentum, coaches and prospective coaches need to understand that when they coach in partnership with spirit defined dually as intuition and enthusiasm, they are better able to serve their clients by more effectively helping them obtain results and increase well-being. Coaching with spirit, the author asserts, is an integrative, intuitive, creative, and trustful connection and this book essentially guides readers to increase their awareness and personal responsibility using an inquiry process that defines both spiritual growth and self-discovery through coaching.
