 This episode's guest is Dr. Michelle Thompson, the medical director of the Lifestyle Medicine Institute at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC). This conversation explores how Dr. Thompson is bringing lifestyle and integrative medicine into major health systems. She began her journey practicing integrative medicine but leveraged the six pillars of lifestyle medicine to bridge the gap with conventional medicine. This hybrid path allowed her to excel at practicing in traditional settings and facilitated introducing integrative and lifestyle medicine principles into larger health systems. Dr. Thompson also shared evidence that there is growing momentum behind the integrative and lifestyle medicine movements, including acceptance and adoption of its principles within health systems. She encourages physicians who may have previously left the system to consider returning and joining a hospital system that is open to change and supportive of these modalities. Building upon recent podcast conversations, such as the episode with Dr. Joe Pizzorno, this episode emphasizes the importance of unity amongst the many disciplines within health-promoting care. Download and listen to this episode to learn more about: How clinicans can transform medicine by being bold and authentic in how they choose to practice The responsibility of clinicians, residents and medical students to help shift the culture in medicine to better align with the principles of lifestyle medicine The importance of showing empathy towards patients and letting them drive their own health journey Physician burnout and the importance of clinicians prioritizing self-care And much, much more Related resources: American College of Lifestyle Medicine: About the UMPC Lifestyle Medicine Program Whole Hearted Medicine: Meet Dr. Michelle 

If you get nothing else from listening to this memorable episode of Raise the Line, you'll at least have the chance to do a breathing exercise in real time along with host Shiv Gaglani and his guest, Dr. Michelle Thompson, who is triple board certified in lifestyle, integrative, and osteopathic family medicine. Dr. Thompson has come to rely on a breathing practice for her own daily wellbeing and offers to do it along with all of her patients as well as countless medical students, residents and colleagues. In fact, as a strong advocate for provider wellness, she's created full-day programs for physicians and nurses to learn tools like breathwork for resilience and self-care. “Self-care is not selfish. If we are caring for ourselves, we are more available to others,” she explains. In addition to her role as medical director of the Lifestyle Medicine Institute at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Thompson is a national force in establishing lifestyle medicine programs in health systems across the country, as nearly 100 organizations have done.  Taking it a step further, UPMC is building a new hospital in the city that Thompson says is going to have a “lifestyle village” on the first three floors to facilitate the efforts of community members to choose healthy habits. Join us as we explore the impact lifestyle and mind-body medicine is having on patient care, employee wellness and medical education in Pittsburgh and far beyond in this perspective-shifting conversation.Mentioned in this episode: University of Pittsburgh Medical Center

The clinical results of his research (including two Randomized Clinical CHIP Trials) have been published in more than 45 peer-reviewed medical journals. His books Health Power, Dynamic Living, Take Charge of Your Health, and You-Turn (co-authored with Aileen Ludington) and the Optimal Diet Cookbook (co-authored with Darlene Blaney) have been translated into 36 languages with more than two million copies in circulation. He earned his doctorate in Health Science and an MPH in Public Health Nutrition from Loma Linda University.

He contributed to the development of the UCLA Cheer Center and was awarded a post-doctoral research fellowship in cardiovascular (CV) epidemiology (National Institutes of Health).     CHIP, original the Coronary Health Improvement Project, then the Complete Health Improvement Project is now PIVIO.

He completed medical training at the New York college of osteopathic medicine from 1985 to 1989 and an internal medicine residency program at SUNY Stony Brook. And from 1993 to 2010, he practiced general internal medicine, seeing over 100 patients every week doing chronic disease management. Over that time, Dr. Sal witnessed firsthand how traditional healthcare in many cases did not result in improved clinical outcomes. This caused him to investigate preventative and lifestyle medicine. After 18 years of practicing general internal medicine, Dr. Sal began focusing on preventative healthcare. He became board certified from the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine, and also through the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. Over the last 15 years, he worked with other physicians and healthcare providers that wanted to come alongside him and become certified in lifestyle medicine. So help me welcome to the show Dr. Sal.
