Emory Lifestyle Medicine & Wellness

We understand that well-being is more than the absence of disease. That is why we designed Emory Lifestyle Medicine and Wellness. Our goal is to inspire and equip you with hands-on skills for living your healthiest life and achieving your health goals.

As a collaborative health and wellness program at Emory University, our resources, research, and partnerships all promote a whole-body approach to health. We get to the root cause of disease by translating research into actionable self-care tools. Our program highlights five pillars of health:

• Nutrition and culinary skills
• Exercise and physical activity
• Stress management techniques and mindfulness
• Meaning and connectedness
• Sleep

Our unique approach emphasizes immersive, step-by-step experiential learning. We offer personalized wellness assessments, interactive classes, online courses, and workshops on culinary and mind-body techniques that you can easily incorporate into a busy lifestyle.

We believe in natural health solutions and in the power of using lifestyle as medicine so much that we practice what we teach in our own lives. We hope you will share our passion for living with vibrancy, joy, and purpose!

"As physicians, we need to do more than provide knowledge and set health goals with our patients. We need to offer a roadmap for turning that knowledge into lifelong skills that enhance how people experience life - physically, emotionally, and spiritually. "

Research-Based

We base the principles behind our programs on scientific research findings and advances. Our faculty is actively engaged in research in areas such as nutrition, exercise, stress management techniques, herbal plants, and bacterial balance

Personalized Assessments

We offer in-office wellness assessments that include:

• Body composition analysis
• Nutrition consultation
• Exercise consultation

Through these assessments, we develop a healing plan designed to meet you where you are and guide you to your optimal health.

Interactive

We believe that experiential, hands-on learning and peer support are critical for acquiring new health habits that last. Our online and in-person classes are designed to create an interactive community among our experts and participants.

Ongoing Support

Our team includes a registered dietitian and health coach that can partner with you to help you reach your health goals.
