Because what you do, day in and day out, matters for your health

Click on the following pillars of Lifestyle Medicine to learn more.

Local healthy eats, published recipes & educational content

Choose predominantly whole plant-based foods that are rich in fiber and dense in nutrients. Eat veggies, fruit, beans, lentils, whole grains, nuts and seeds.

Get up & move with free group classes the whole family can enjoy

When regular & consistent physical activity, such as walking, gardening, push ups & lunges, is maintained on a daily basis throughout life, it becomes an essential piece of the optimal health equation.

Incorporate stress relief practices & selfcare into your regular routine

Stress can lead to improved health and productivity or it can lead to anxiety, depression, obesity, immune dysfunction and more. Recognize your negative stress responses and identify coping mechanisms and stress-reducing techniques that lead to improved overall wellbeing and balance.

risky substances

Learn tips & tricks to limit your exposure to risky & hidden substances

The well-documented dangers of any addictive substance use can increase risk for many cancers and heart disease. Positive behaviors that improve health include cessation of tobacco use, limiting the intake of alcohol, refined sugar and the use of chemical-laden products in your home and on your body.

Assess, track and change your sleeping habits with best-practice support

Lack of, or poor quality, sleep can lead to a strained immune system. Identify dietary, environmental, and coping behaviors to improve your sleep health.

Connect with the Lake Nona community & feed your soul

Social connectedness is essential to emotional resilience. Studies show that isolation is associated with increased mortality. Nurture your home and community environment to improve your overall health.
