Nature as a Health Resource – Coaching Model

The aim of the LURE project was to support the work and functional capacity of young people at risk of exclusion by strengthening their psychological and physical well-being and resilience. The project developed a form interview suitable for measuring individual resilience and a nature-based coaching model that individual and well-being coaches can use in their client work.

The coaching model is based on the holistic well-being effects of nature and reflection on experiences as a support for learning. It aims to improve the participants’ ability to face life’s challenges, recover from them and find meaning in their everyday lives. The project strengthened the participants’ inclusion and functional capacity through individually tailored nature-based methods.
