Continuing my series explaining the six pillars of Lifestyle Medicine, today I want to focus on social connection.

Strong, supportive relationships aren’t just nice to have—they’re essential for long-term health. Research consistently shows that meaningful social connection is linked to lower rates of depression, anxiety, cardiovascular disease, and even early mortality. On the flip side, chronic loneliness and isolation can have real, measurable impacts on both physical and mental health.

Lifestyle Medicine recognizes that healing doesn’t happen in isolation. Community, belonging, and feeling truly seen and supported are powerful contributors to sustainable change—especially when you’re working to improve your health.

If you’d like to learn more about how social connection (along with the other pillars) is woven into my Lifestyle Medicine programs, visit jenowennp.com.

Today I’d like to share another pillar of Lifestyle Medicine.

Yesterday, we looked at physical activity. Today, we’re focusing on sleep—one of the most overlooked foundations of health.

Sleep is when the body repairs, the brain resets, hormones rebalance, and inflammation decreases. Poor sleep can affect blood sugar, mood, immune function, weight, and cardiovascular health, often before people notice other symptoms.

In Lifestyle Medicine, we look beyond just the number of hours slept. We consider sleep quality, consistency, stress levels, nervous system regulation, and daily habits that either support or disrupt rest. When sleep improves, many other aspects of health often begin to improve as well.

I want to break down each pillar of Lifestyle Medicine for you—in a clear, practical way that actually makes sense in real life. Today, I’m starting with physical activity.

When people hear “exercise,” they often think of intense workouts or rigid routines. But in Lifestyle Medicine, physical activity isn’t about punishment or pushing your body past its limits—it’s about supporting how your body is designed to function. Regular movement helps regulate blood sugar, lower blood pressure, improve mood, support joint and bone health, and reduce chronic stress. And it doesn’t have to be extreme to be effective.

Walking, gentle strength training, stretching, mobility work, gardening, dancing—this all counts. What matters most is consistency, sustainability, and choosing movement that fits your body and your life. The goal isn’t to force change, but to build resilience and support long-term health.

I felt it was time to comment on the new Dietary Guidelines.

One important thing often gets missed in these conversations: the guidelines are written for population-level feasibility—not individualized, therapeutic care.

While the American College of Lifestyle Medicine supports the emphasis on whole, minimally processed foods, fruits and vegetables, and reducing ultra-processed foods and added sugars, context matters. What’s achievable at scale isn’t always what’s optimal for preventing, treating, or reversing chronic disease.

That’s where Lifestyle Medicine comes in—focusing on dietary patterns, not single nutrients, and tailoring nutrition to real clinical outcomes rather than one-size-fits-all recommendations.

For the third year in a row, Nurse Practitioner has been ranked the #1 best job in the U.S. 🎉

According to U.S. News & World Report’s 2026 Best Jobs rankings, the NP role once again took the top spot—and ranked #1 in healthcare.

These rankings look at real-world factors that actually matter:
future job prospects, earning potential, employment demand, job stability, and work–life balance. Using data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the conclusion was clear: the need for NPs continues to grow—and the role continues to deliver.

I’m not surprised. Nurse Practitioners bring a unique blend of clinical expertise, patient-centered care, and flexibility to today’s healthcare system. Whether working in primary care, specialty care, mental health, or integrative and lifestyle medicine, NPs are shaping the future of healthcare in powerful ways.

To my fellow NPs—and those considering the path—this is a moment to be proud. 💙
Your work matters. Your skills are needed. And the future is wide open.

I get asked a lot why I’m so passionate about Lifestyle Medicine—and the answer is simple: I’ve seen what happens when people are finally given tools that actually work in real life.

For years, I watched patients do “everything right” and still feel frustrated, exhausted, and stuck. Labs barely moved. Symptoms lingered. Motivation came and went. Lifestyle Medicine changed that for me. It gave me a framework to address root causes—not just manage symptoms—and to support change in a way that’s compassionate, realistic, and sustainable.

This work isn’t about perfection or rigid rules. It’s about helping your body work with you again. That’s why I created my Lifestyle Medicine program—to give people structure, education, and support so they don’t have to figure it all out on their own.

If this resonates with you, you can explore the program at jenowennp.com. And if you’ve been feeling ready for something deeper and more supportive, this may be the right next step.
