Please let me know what you think of my newly written Core Values and Code of Ethics: Part One: Harmonic Health Coaching’s (HHC) Five Core Values,
(pp. 1-3) and HHC’s Code of Ethics, (pp. 4-5)
1. Integrity
Aspiration
Harmonic Health Coaching (HHC) aspires to operate with the highest integrity concerning an integrative approach to health and well-being. We strive to set a gold standard in health screening and take an interdisciplinary approach to assessing client needs and desires for healing. This also includes a self-assessment in the areas of relationships, physical activity, career, inspiration and creativity, nutrition, and self-care practices including a mindfulness-based practice incorporated into one’s daily living.
We adhere to local rules, regulations, and laws regarding certification constraints. We recognize our limits as a wellness organization and make no claims to being a medical organization.
Harmonic Health Coaching acknowledges the psychological, spiritual, relational, and physical integrity of its clients. We are dedicated to upholding the age-old adage: “First, do no harm.”
Application
• Develop and regularly revise the health screening processes to integrate anecdotal reports, scientific research, feedback from clients, and best practices in nutrition and mindful living practices.
• Prioritize the role of science in mindful lifestyle practices to create intentional settings, context, and containers for ourselves and others that facilitate, promote and/or support healing, harmony, integration, and individual and collective liberation. These containers seek to bring people closer to themselves and to each other within their family and friend constellations.
2. Access
Aspiration
Harmonic Health Coaching (HHC) is committed to individual’s and their family’s healing. We aspire to increase our clients’ desires to include self-care practices that sustain healthy living for total well-being for themselves and their family members as desired.
Given the wide variety of needs in different individual and familial communities, HHC aspires to identify the needs particular to each individual and family constellation that desires access to physical and psychological self-care practices. We firmly believe that individuals understand their own needs and are best equipped to identify and address their own as well as their family’s readiness for change best.
Application
• Acknowledge many ways of knowing, ‘not-knowing’, and honoring mystery, we can start with our own self work, centering our practice as core to the professional culture of the health coaching field.
• Perform our roles in a caring and compassionate manner, in both one-to-one interactions and with groups, we can grow our knowledge of the history of our fields of study and that of psychedelics and their many traditions of use, in a good-faith effort to appreciate both the potential of these substances and the conflict and complexity surrounding them.
• Respect the rights, dignity, and safety of all clients repairing trust if we fall out of right relationship with them.
3. Sustainability and Nature Connection
Aspiration
Harmonic Health Coaching (HHC) is deeply aware of the ecological crisis and myriad of ways humanity has transgressed planetary limits. We care deeply about our home world and its biodiversity. We acknowledge the threats to our living world and are devoted to reconnecting people to nature through the practices of eco-psychological modalities, kindness, and compassion for all sentient beings by exploring all inherent interconnectedness of all organic life on this planet.
Application
• Actively and continuously review the individuals, products, programs, and educational institutions we work with to ensure sustainability and reduce our ecological footprint.
• Advocate for legislation and legalization of plant-life worldwide that engenders regenerative access to organic food that will sustain longevity and lifestyle health.
• Connect with organizations and companies that advocate sustainable lifestyle habits that do no harm to animals, local ecologies, or economies and do not result in species extinction or extract important plants, fungi, or animals from indigenous communities.
4. Transparency
Aspiration
Harmonic Health Coaching (HHC) is committed to transparency at all levels of the organization. Important and relevant information circulates throughout all layers and circles of the organization, aligning all key stakeholders.
HHC is committed to building trust and emphasizes the correlation between transparency and accountability. When exploring collaboration with strategic partnerships, we look for those who are aligned with HHC’s core values and those who are equally devoted to changing the world through transformative business and leadership.
Application
• Review at the half-way mark and at the final completion of the clients’ program with a discussion and self-reporting of influences that impacted the client’s achievements, setbacks, and successes in reaching their goals.
• Be honest and transparent regarding our professional business and financial matters.
• Hold ourselves to the highest standards of ethics, rights, and professional competency, as commonly recognized in the health coaching field.
5. Collaboration and Knowledge
Aspiration
Harmonic Health Coaching (HHC) is committed to a spirit of collaboration, believes in a diverse knowledge-based society, and seeks to transform regenerative practices that lead to a healthy lifestyle, longevity, and happiness of all sentient beings. HHC aspires to collaborate closely with health organizations, doctors, and local communities, reinvesting and circulating capital, and by disseminating its best practices for the benefit of communities and their environments worldwide.
Application
• Apply multi-disciplinary lenses in our work with clients putting them first every step of the way.
• Utilize the best scientific data and methods in neuroscience and nutritional health.
• Support the publication of protocols and research findings openly.
• Invest in the dissemination of best practices, technological innovation, safety standards and various tools and methodologies, at affordable prices depending on circumstances.
• We practice discernment with touch, using clinical judgment and assessing our own motivation when considering if touching a participant is appropriate.
Note: The Harmonic Health Coaching Core Values was influenced by and heavily adapted from The Five Core Values of the Synthesis Institute and the MAPS
