Our Vision for Your Career

  • COVID Proof Your Career

    In our COVID world, we have to be more creative about how we offer our services while setting safe personal boundaries. Care now has to be fully trauma informed and COVID sensitive, which might mean transition for you in how you offer your services. If you were to hire our coaches 1-on-1, it would cost thousands of dollars. Our group coaching provides an economical solution. And for this first year of launch both Catalyst and Synergy are offered at 50% off, with an option to pay in monthly installments, or save even more by paying for a year at a time. It truly is a bargain, because we believe so much in helping build a community that can transform healthcare.

  • Build Your Professional Community

    One of the biggest problems we face as therapists and creative entrepreneurs is the absence of a “tribe.” The ability to bounce ideas and issues off of colleagues who are like-minded and trying their best to “walk the talk.” Our programs solve that problem for you. Let’s tackle these shared barriers and carve out a more sustainable career path. Endless opportunity awaits when you connect with like-minded professionals. Our network of clinicians which spans the US, Canada, and beyond, have collaborated on retreats, workshops, and referral sources- to name a few. By joining this community you will have access to thought leaders across the globe, looking to make a difference and support you in the process.

  • Make Evidence-Based Practice Easier

    Our Action Potential Newsletter, Online Lessons, Coaching Calls, and Evidence-Based Discussions will help you stay current on the topics that matter the most to you. Each week we will supply you with bite-sized Lifestyle Medicine and Medical Therapeutic Yoga concepts. During our group calls, you will have the opportunity to discuss clinical application of these as well as support in applying these principles to your own life.

  • Get on the Time Management Train

    Catalyst provides Structure, Support & Accountability - a multi-tiered framework for working smarter, NOT harder. Not only will you benefit from these tried and true methods, but you will also reap the benefits of going through this program with folks with similar goals. Folks often find that community improves accountability, and having the support and structure provided by our program provides the trifecta for transformation.

  • Get Better Patient Outcomes Now

    Most PT and OT programs do not offer training in lifestyle factors or integrative therapies (Integrative & Lifestyle Medicine for short) that influence our clinical outcomes, even though these fall under our scope of practice. The ILM and Yoga body of evidence is GIANT. There is SO much to learn, apply, and assimilate. Let us help you apply these concepts personally AND professionally. Haven’t been through the program? Don’t worry. If you haven’t been through the ILM or MTY program yet, you’ll benefit from getting a bird’s eye view of how Medical Therapeutic Yoga and its comprehensive Integrative & Lifestyle Medicine care model can work in your self-care and patient/client care. If you have been through our programs you will benefit from ongoing support and leadership opportunities within the Living Well Institute.
