THE COLORADO CENTER FOR LIFESTYLE MEDICINE

Happy Patient.webp

Hi and Welcome to The Colorado Center For Lifestyle Medicine. We are a Primary Care Practice in Salida, Colorado. We see patients ages two and up. We operate under the lens of functional medicine, evidence based science to find the root cause of whatever ails you. Our goal is to help achieve your optimal state of well-being. And lifestyle change is the foundation. Using therapeutic lifestyle interventions as a primary modality to treat chronic conditions including, but not limited to, auto immunity, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity we apply the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern, physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances and positive social connections—to provide effective evidence based intervention and prevention for these and all other forms of illness or dis Ease. 

Lifestyle medicine is actually the foundation of conventional medicine. Clinical practice guidelines for the top lifestyle-related chronic diseases support lifestyle medicine as the first line of treatment, before medications.

We Want To Know You

​

Our intake process is lengthy, asking lots of questions about you, your life, what you do, how you play...What and how you eat; sleep habits; exercise habits; your relationships...what are your bowel movements like, how's your energy, what has changed in your life to bring you to this point. Why are you seeing us? What are your expectations and goals? What do you want in life? Who do you wish to become? Do you have traumas and dramas in your background and if so, have you received therapy and moved through them or are you still in need?

​

To that end we offer Mind-Body Medicine, it's the most amazing evidence based process I have ever had the privilege of experiencing and teaching. In MBM you'll learn how the mind and body are intimately connected. Learn multiple different skills and techniques to tap in to your emotions and to move through them in a safe manner, so you can develop mindfulness/awareness around your habits, actions, beliefs and heal yourself-physcially, mentally, emotionally.  The simple processes you learn will transform how you see yourself and others; how you respond in life, how you manage stress. Twenty-five years into the program, it was determined that mind- body medicine actually transformed trauma. This is a beautiful, evidence based, simple program. It is something from which all of us can benefit. And I will recommend each and everyone of you join the program. If you really want optimal well-being, this program is for you!

​

This Fall, 2025, we will be offering weekly online classes around the Six Pillars of Lifestyle Medicine; sleep, stress, food, exercise, connection, and substance use. These weekly programs are online group visits offering you detailed information and lots of time for Q&A. Also, once a week we will be offering a one hour group coaching class -- topic to be determined by the most common question from the weekly Pillars class, taking a deeper dive into the topic. 

You cannot achieve optimal well-being without full commitment to the Lifestyle Pillars and full engagement in your own healing. We at The Colorado Center For Lifestyle Medicine can offer guidance, support, tools, techniques, but only can do the work. We are here to support you.​

Why I practice Lifestyle Medicine

​

Because it matters! How you live, how you sleep, your exercise, your diet, it all MATTERS. You and your story matter. Your stress, your life experiences tell your story and impact your physical and emotional health. Let's get to the root of your issues. â€‹

​

I've had lots of my own dramas and traumas: i just call it life: the school of hard knocks. What have I learned from  it all...big family of origin, sibling died by suicide, learning challenges, ADD, 4 children, a sick child, difficult marriage & divorce, college as an adult, lots of losses, failures and getting up and trying again.....I found the determination to succeed was underlying everything: lifestyle changes, exercise, functional medicine, nature and a willingness to change my attitude, my habits, open my mind(reluctantly) was helpful.

 

Healing occurs with curiosity, awareness, good food, appropriate exercise, great sleep, healthy relationships, and a willingness to experiment, learning what's right for you. It takes time. Asking questions, seeking help, learning everything I could about healing, energy, physics, brought me to where I am today. 

​

I practice an integrated blend of Western, Functional, and nutritional medicine coupled with Mind-Body skills and coaching. Over the past 38 yrs of being a Mom and 23 years of being a Nurse Practitioner I have learned a lot...about myself, how to hear others, how to see/hear what the body needs, and how to provide the type of care I want to receive. The Colorado Center for Lifestyle Medicine does just that. I look forward to guiding and supporting you on your journey.
