About the Book

The Lifestyle Medicine Handbook: An Introduction to the Power of Healthy Habits is a well-researched and practical resource for anyone who wants to know more about the field of lifestyle medicine. Blending lifestyle medicine knowledge with clinical examples, this cutting-edge book offers a comprehensive overview of the eight pillars of lifestyle medicine. Published in collaboration with the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, this handbook is designed to introduce individuals and practitioners at all levels to the importance of daily habits and actions in health and quality of life. Review If you want to be happy and healthy for the rest of your life, spend an hour or two with Dr. Frates. If you can't do that, then buy her cutting-edge handbook, which packs atomic power and does so with love, humor and inspirational energy. Dr. Frates is on a mission. She wants to save us all from our ignorant habits and free us to be our happiest, healthiest selves. She has the knowledge, skill and love-of-us all to do it. She's a powerhouse coach and for the price of this little lightsaber, you can carry her around with you! --Edward Hallowell, MD Board-certified Child and Adult Psychiatrust/ Founder, The Hallowell CentersDr Frates' knowledge, insights, dedication, and just plain humanity place her in the vanguard of the global lifestyle medicine movement. This handbook is a worthy, signature contribution to the field from a rising leader. --David L. Katz, MD, MPH, FACPM, FACP, FACLMThe Lifestyle Medicine Handbook blends lifestyle medicine knowledge with rich clinical examples through the experienced voice of practitioner Dr. Beth Frates. The immense importance of compassion and coaching mindset in lifestyle medicine is well demonstrated throughout the manual. Seasoned lifestyle medicine practitioners, as well as those individuals who are new to the field, will relish the practical information and inspiration to support their everyday patient care. --Catherine L. Collings, MD About the Author Beth Frates, MD is trained as a physiatrist and a health and wellness coach. Her expertise is in lifestyle medicine, and she works to empower patients to reach their optimal level of wellness by adopting healthy habits. A member of the Board of Directors of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, Dr. Frates is helping to shape the scope of this new specialty. She is an award-winning teacher at Harvard Medical School, where she is an assistant clinical professor, and she developed and taught a college lifestyle medicine curriculum at the Harvard Extension School, which is one of the most popular courses offered at the school. She shared a lifestyle medicine syllabus, which can be downloaded through the ACLM website, in hopes that her work can serve as a template for other instructors and professors hoping to teach a course in lifestyle medicine. As the Director of Wellness Programming at the Stroke Institute for Research and Recovery at Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital, Dr. Frates has created and implemented a 12-month wellness program for stroke survivors and their caregivers. She is co-author of the book Life After Stroke: The Guide to Recovering Your Health and Preventing Another Stroke and co-author of three chapters on behavior change in different medical textbooks. Richard Joseph, MD is currently a senior resident physician in the HVMA Primary Care Residency Program at Brigham & Women s Hospital (BWH). This program is a collaboration between BWH, Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates (HVMA), the Department of Population Medicine at Harvard Medical School, and the Harvard Pilgrim Health Care Institute. Prior to his clinical training, Rich earned his joint MD/MBA from Stanford University. While at Stanford, Rich helped develop the lifestyle medicine seminar, an interdisciplinary course for Stanford clinicians, medical students, and graduate students that encourages physicians to facilitate

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
