We know that many long-term conditions can be improved and sometimes prevented through lifestyle and behaviour change . But most health and care professionals were never properly trained in how to support this in practice. That’s why we created Prescribing Lifestyle Medicine (PLM).

PLM is designed to help bring lifestyle medicine into real consultations, real systems and real lives, with practical tools that can be used immediately.

Why this matters now

Healthcare systems are facing rising levels of long-term conditions

  • Long-term conditions
  • Multi-morbidity
  • burnout
  • lifestyle-related illness

At the same time, many clinicians feel trapped in reactive models of care that leave little room for prevention, behaviour change and meaningful conversations.

PLM helps health and care professionals feel better equipped to deliver personalised, preventative and compassionate care while reconnecting with the reasons many entered healthcare in the first place.

What you’ll learn

PLM combines clinical evidence with practical communication approaches that work in everyday care.

You’ll explore:

  • Nutrition, movement, sleep and stress
  • Behaviour change conversations
  • Whole-person care approaches
  • Practical tools for everyday consultations
  • Supporting sustainable patient change

This is practical learning grounded in the realities clinicians face every day.
