Meet Eric Imbody

Eric Imbody I have spent twenty five years as a professional counselor, consultant and teacher in the areas of mental health, trauma recovery and employee assistance programs. These activities have sharpened my abilities as an expert listener and an experienced guide for change, growth work and problem solving. Early experiences as a professional outdoor guide taught me how to lead groups of people as teams to overcome obstacles to reach the "desired destination" and "enjoy the scenery along the way." My eight years of experience in teaching the Chinese healing art of Qigong (Chi Kung) has allowed me to instruct others about stress management, life balance, using personal energy wisely and the need for focused attention to actualize our goals. My passion for gardening has taught me that growth and "blooming" require love and patience. During my adult life, I have developed and run three businesses with integrity, which adds to the background and expertise I can draw from to serve you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am also a graduate of The Institute for Life Coach Training which provides experienced counselors and therapists with solid life coach training to augment their existing people skills. Additionally, I am a Certified LifePartnerQuest Relationship Coach. This program provides coaching services for singles looking to find fulfilling relationships or for couples wanting to improve the relationships they already have. I am also a member of the International Coach Federation and Denver Coach Federation. Eric & Jennifer Imbody I have been happily married to my wife Jennifer for 15 years and have one stepson, Kelton. My marriage has remained rich and vibrant and continually teaches me new things about nearly every facet of life. My passions include music, gardening, spending time in nature, travel, cooking (and eating wonderful meals) and having rich friendships. I also have a passion for maintaining balance in my mind, body and spirit through the daily practice of Qigong, the acknowledgment of my gratitudes, the focus on a positive outlook, and daily learning. My coaching interest involves helping people work with those sparks of passion that will lead them to take the action their life mission, or life-calling requires. The purpose of my coaching is to assist people to transform their lives away from the dissatisfying, the ordinary, or the tolerable... toward something far better. This something could be more life or work satisfaction, more abundance, better relationships or more creativity. I specialize in working with professionals who are driven to honor their callings and their passions in life. These are people who have already found at least a moderate amount of success in various life areas and want to expand on this success. These are people who have a drive to reach beyond the ordinary. These folks have the creativity or sense of adventure to try something new. These people have gotten to know who they are well enough to take time to listen to their intuition or their "gut" and take action on what feels right even if they aren't sure how the story will work out. These are people who value self-examination... people who know on some level that they have something quite important to share with the world. I believe that a healthy balance between body, mind and spirit serves as the foundation for a life of fulfillment, abundance and success. I believe that true satisfaction is the result of conscious life planning and action. My purpose as a life coach is to serve as a guide by being focused and giving you my respect, honesty, compassion and experience.
