Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:

• Articulate the evidence for lifestyle intervention as a mechanism for disease remission — particularly for type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and obesity — grounded in the osteopathic principle that the body possesses inherent self-regulatory and self-healing capacity.

• Examine how social determinants of health and structural inequities disrupt the body-mind-spirit unit and create downstream barriers to lifestyle medicine adoption across patient populations.

• Define social prescribing and describe its application as an emerging digital health frontier, including current models linking patients to community-based resources for connection, movement, and purpose.

• Identify digital health platforms that support health equity by extending access to lifestyle medicine interventions — including nutrition, restorative sleep, and substance avoidance resources — in underserved communities.
