Healthy Living

The Healthy Living Group’s Mission is to help people thrive at any age through lifestyle medicine. We follow the guidelines of The American College of Lifestyle Medicine. We meet on the 4th Sunday of the Month in the Connections Room at 1pm.

6 Pillars of Lifestyle Medicine:

Nutrition
Evidence supports the use of a whole food, plant-predominant diet to prevent, treat and reverse chronic illness.

Physical Activity
Regular, consistent physical activity is an important part of overall health and resiliency.

Stress Management
Managing negative stress can lessen anxiety, depression and immune dysfunction and leads to improved well-being.

Restorative Sleep
Improving sleep quality can improve attention span, mood, insulin resistance and can reduce hunger, sluggishness and more.

Social Connection
Positive social connections have beneficial effects on physical, mental and emotional health.

Avoidance of Risky Substances
Use of tobacco and excessive alcohol consumption have been shown to increase risk of chronic diseases and death.
