Exercise, a healthy diet, stress management, sound sleep: Most
practitioners would agree that living well can mitigate the impact
of mental disorders. Yet many are unprepared to address lifestyle
factors in their care of patients. Lifestyle Psychiatry seeks to
instill confidence by collating and analyzing the impressive
emerging body of evidence that supports the efficacy of healthy
lifestyle practices-both as the primary intervention and in
conjunction with traditional treatments such as psychopharmacology
or psychotherapy-in preventing and managing psychiatric disorders.
This volume examines the impact of lifestyle interventions-from
exercise, yoga, and tai chi to mindfulness and meditation, diet and
nutrition, and sleep management-on psychiatric disorders, including
depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia,
and addiction. Readers can readily find data to support the use of
specific lifestyle interventions for a patient presenting with a
specific disorder. Detailed descriptions of the mechanisms of each
lifestyle intervention also prepare practitioners to educate their
patients on the specific neurobiological and psychological effects
of these interventions to support their recovery. With chapters
that focus on developing a robust therapeutic alliance and
inspiring patients to assume responsibility for their own
well-being, this guide provides a framework for lasting,
sustainable lifestyle changes. Additionally, the book discusses the
impact of the provider's lifestyle on clinical behavior and the
implications of lifestyle medicine and psychiatry for health care
systems and population health, offering a broader examination of
the important role this new field can play in leading a
sophisticated, holistic approach to optimizing wellness.
