Abstract
The purpose of this paper was to conduct a scoping review on Co-Active (Life) Coaching (CALC) literature related to health behaviour change. The scoping methodological framework developed by Arksey and O’Malley (2005) informed the retrieval of appropriate articles. Six questions provided an in- depth exploration of CALC in the health coaching literature. This paper provides a broad overview of the current status of CALC literature in the area and underscores its utility to help facilitate health behaviour- related outcomes. The CALC approach offers a promising intervention for a variety of health conditions. Future larger-scale studies with increased experimental rigor are recommended.
