Life Coaching - Six Human Needs
All human behaviour is driven by an instinct to fulfil one or more basic human needs. Abraham Maslow developed a hierarchy of needs model in the 1940/1950s in the USA. The original model defined five human needs, but has been added to and amended over the years. The original needs hierarchy was:
Biological & Physiological needs; (basic life needs air, food, drink, sleep, shelter, warmth, sex etc)
Safety needs; (protection, order, security, law, stability)
Love & Belongingness needs; (relationships, family, love, belonging)
Esteem needs; (responsibility, status, achievement, purpose)
Self Actualisation; (personal fulfilment and growth)
