What is Lifestyle Health?

Lifestyle Health is simply a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, resulting from a person’s ‘style of life’.  

Over recent years a strong and growing evidence-base has been generated through ongoing research to highlight the many mental and physical health benefits of:

• Arts and Crafts 
• Food and Drink
• Gardening and Nature
• Movement and Play
• Social and Emotional Interest

One of the first projects that the Lifestyle Health Foundation has embarked on is the creation of a library. The major purpose is to enable you to access and share various resources and published research papers. This is to provide information, education and an ‘evidence-base’ to highlight the importance of lifestyle health especially in the the early years of a child’s life in preventing mental and physical health problems.                              

If you wish to access the resources, or you know of, or perhaps you have created any resources (including ‘open access’ research papers, books, videos, photos etc), and would like to help contribute to the library by sharing them with others, we invite you to visit and join the library and start sharing, so others can benefit, today.
