Sooner or later in the coaching process there comes a time when the client starts to spin or just doesn’t know what step to take next. In circumstances like this, the method called “meta-view” is useful and I think every trainer should have it as part of their “toolbox”.

“Metavista” is a symbolic view from “on high”, be it from an airplane, helicopter, the top of a mountain or simply a platform. Using this method, the coach invites clients to look at their situation from a higher perspective, directing their attention to the “big picture” of their lives, rather than to the obvious obstacles at the time.

This exercise is very useful in any coaching process. First of all, it gives customers the opportunity to try something new. Second, clients can fully experience the benefits of coaching, because this type of exercise is exactly what can make a difference in any client’s life! (It is not common for people who have not been through coaching to use a method like this in their daily life!)

Third, clients can appreciate the work of their coach, who understands that now is the right time to take clients away from the nitty-gritty of their daily lives and focus on what really matters to them in the long run and what is. . your true goals and desires are.

It is easy to be absorbed in heavy thoughts in everyday life, but the ability to rise above all burden and see all the connections that make our life what it is, and what can make it different and better, is the real benefit here. . To top it all, once the method is tested in coaching, the client can continue to use it in later life, when necessary.
