156. Boost Your Health Without Medicine: Understanding Social Prescribing
-

What if your doctor could “prescribe” a nature walk, a museum visit, or coffee with a friend—and it actually improved your health? In this episode, we explore social prescribing, a growing global movement that connects people to non-clinical supports proven to enhance physical, mental, and social well-being.
Rebecca (Becky) Hass, certified life coach, Programming & Outreach Manager for Anne Arundel County Public Library, and author of 101 Seeds for Library Joy, shares how she combines positive psychology with community engagement through her consulting company, Joy Work, LLC.
In this episode:
- What social prescribing is—and why it started in the UK
- How “link workers” and community navigators connect people to art, movement, nature, volunteering, and more
- The loneliness epidemic and why social health belongs beside physical and mental health
- Real stories from libraries, gyms, and neighborhoods proving that connection heals
- Barriers (transportation, awareness, “sick-care” systems) and what pilots in the US are testing
- How to self-prescribe joy and belonging—without waiting for a doctor’s note
