NORTHAMPTON, MA - Lenore Shepard is a Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, CBT for insomnia practitioner, and Reiki Practitioner. She is a practitioner of the Integrative Health model. That might sound like a mouthful, but it is really quite simple. Every choice we make in our life has powerful implications for our health. This includes the foods we ingest, how we respond to stress, even our thoughts, is interconnected, and if we change even one behavior for the better, it impacts our overall well-being and ability to heal. Take for instance sleep. If we do not routinely get enough sleep, we might not digest well, we will have low energy, increased appetite, hormonal dysregulation and our immunity can be compromised. Improved sleep is but one example of the integrative health concept and journey toward wholeness. Lenore honed her natural capacity for helping others in various coaching and medicinal programs. She was first introduced to coaching in 2005 and studied at 3 schools to hone her craft. Today she runs a practice known as Coaching With Lenore, a health and wellness practice that supports clients in activating internal strengths and external resources to make sustainable and healthy lifestyle behavior changes. Her different packages are aimed at helping clients learn healthy and adaptive lifestyle patterns and behaviors, reducing their stress response, improving their diet and sleep, increasing their adaptiveness to change, deepening into self compassion, and incorporating mindfulness practices into their daily routine. She also offers spiritual counseling and works with empaths. For more information about Lenore and her vocation, please visit her website www.coachingwithlenore.com
