Thanks for this. I hadn't seen the phrase "lifestyle medicine" before. Most of my older GPs used to just call this taking care of the basics.
You know, they'd ask if you were at least doing those things before resorting to prescriptions and procedures.
Although I'd include the social component too like the definition does.
Anyways, it's done more for my personal mental health than any talk therapy or their theories, and way more than any prescription (I think I know why in my case). So I wish you luck, and hope you can get some support in pursuing these goals.
