Pioneering an innovative and inclusive model of care for chronic disease prevention and management.
ASLM has been involved in pioneering SMAs in Australasia for some years, including conducting pilot trials, and advocating for the concept to be recognised within the current MBS reimbursement system. Currently, ASLM is training hundreds of practitioners and SMA facilitators in medical centres around the country through a number of Primary Health Networks.
Local hubs of Lifestyle Medicine designed to improve social and individual health and wellbeing in the communities.
ASLM is expanding on its mission to improve the health of Australians and New Zealanders with an innovative program to bring Lifestyle Medicine to your community, neighbourhood, and into the homes on your street.
Establishing Lifestyle Medicine as standard best practice in prevention and healthcare.
The Lifestyle Medicine Education (LMEd) project ultimately aims to ensure that all practitioners, whether medical or allied health, receive education in Lifestyle Medicine.
Promoting cross-discipline engagement with Lifestyle Medicine.
The Multidisciplinary Engagement and Advocacy (LMMe) project has been designed to promote engagement with, and uptake of, Lifestyle Medicine amongst the medical and allied health disciplines that are central to the delivery of primary health care.
Developing clinical resources for lifestyle medicine for lifestyle prescription.
The government ‘Lifescripts’ initiative was de-funded in 2014, leaving an unmet need for resources to support practitioners and patients in lifestyle change. The LMRx project is placed to fill this need, providing clinical resources and training for primary care practitioners.

The Australasian Society of Lifestyle Medicine acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the unceded lands and waters where we live and work. We celebrate their ongoing connection to land, sea and culture and pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. As a bi-national (or Australasian) society, we also acknowledge ngā iwi Māori as the Tangata Whenua (or people of the land) of Aotearoa. We are committed to upholding the principles of the Te Tiriti o Waitangi, building our relationship with Māori, and working together to improve the health of all First Nations peoples.
