Intensive Lifestyle Medicine Program
3 month Intensive Lifestyle Medicine Intervention Program-$1500
My Intensive Lifestyle Intervention Program offers a powerful solution for those seeking to reduce medication dependence, improve chronic conditions, and potentially reverse pre-existing diseases like Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension, and Hypercholesterolemia. This program aims to prevent, treat, and address the root causes of chronic diseases by focusing on personalized, sustainable behavior changes. Unlike typical medication solutions that manage symptoms, Lifestyle Medicine identifies and eradicates the underlying lifestyle factors contributing to these conditions.
Self-care and self-management skills are essential to this program, as individuals take responsibility for their health. Active participation, motivation, and commitment are crucial when assuming control over personal well-being. To be successful, significant lifestyle changes are needed in the following areas: adopting a healthful whole food plant-based diet, increasing physical activity, improving sleep quality, managing stress, avoiding risky substances, and forming and maintaining supportive healthy relationships. A complete transition to a whole food plant-based lifestyle is crucial, with physician oversight and potential medication deprescribing.
As a health coach, I use an individualized, whole-person approach, prioritizing what matters most to the client’s health. By uncovering motivation for change and setting realistic, achievable goals, we enhance their skills and confidence in making health-conscious choices. Small changes that accumulate over time are emphasized, ensuring long-term sustainability. Through partnership, ongoing education, accountability, support, feedback, and problem-solving strategies, I empower and inspire my clients to make healthy choices that fit their work/life schedules and overall lifestyle. The ultimate objective is not just disease management but health restoration.
