How is this different
from other coaching
programs?
The Chopra Health and Wellness Coaching Program teaches a developmental-based coaching model, whereas other programs are performance based.
A Chopra Health and Wellness Coach guides you toward transformation. Instead of simply asking you to identify your goals, outlining a plan for you, and holding you accountable, this type of coaching uses questions and reflections to walk with you on your Hero’s Journey.
Introducing the Chopra Life and Health Coaching Program
Distinguish yourself as a best-in-class health and wellness authority and help others thrive. Our program takes an integrative approach to health and well-being by leveraging the latest in evolutionary and positive psychology, life coaching, and the 5,000-year-old wisdom traditions modernized and taught for over 30 years by the world-renowned voice in mind-body science, Dr. Deepak Chopra™.
What You'll Get
Practicality
Community
Confidence
You’ll learn, practice, and leave with a solid foundation to use any way you choose.
You’ll form a global network that you can tap into for ongoing growth and support.
You’ll learn a combo of psychology coaching and Vedic philosophy boiled down into a simple toolkit.
A Session-by-Session Overview
The Chopra Life and Health Coaching Program is a blended online program that weaves together the Chopra pillars of health, meditation, coaching methodologies, and fundamentals, and the science behind them.
A Chopra Health and Wellness Coach asks questions that help you reflect on where you are and where you want to be in order to help you better understand yourself. That self-awareness helps you grow in the ways you need to in order to achieve any goal you set for yourself, sustain it, and re-evaluate it through the ebbs and flows of your life.
You’ll help your clients connect lifestyle changes to a greater sense of purpose. It’s a total health and well-being package.

What makes the Chopra Life and Health Coaching Program unique?
Ayurveda is not new. In fact, it’s been practiced for centuries. Ayurveda is believed to date back to over five thousand years to ancient India. References to Ayurveda and its sister science, Yoga, appeared in ancient scholarly texts called “the Vedas.”
However, Deepak’s life’s work and teachings have helped Ayurveda to gain notoriety in our modern world. And that’s what makes the Chopra Health Program so special. This is your chance to immerse yourself in a curriculum based on the life’s work of Deepak Chopra.
