A Message From Our Founder

The Doctor Is IN: I Can Tell You Things Patients Don't Tell Doctors


Founder portrait

In the Conventional Medicine world, when The Doctor is IN, you can make a connection by phone, over the internet, or in person.


In Living Whole Online, you discover that The Doctor is IN You.


During my 20 years serving as a primary care physician at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, I was surprised to discover that my patients were doing things for their health and healing that were not taught in medical training.


Some were practicing Integrative Health with an Integrative Health Practitioner or Integrative Health Coach. I’m so grateful that my patients opened my eyes and mind.


I learned about the enormous power of education that unites the best in Conventional Medicine Education, Whole Plant-Based Food, Movement of the Body, and Mind/Body/Spirit Disciplines.


With expert, visionary colleagues who offer integrative health solutions through their services as Facilitators, I co-founded and developed International Integrators and Living Whole Online. I hope you benefit from your holistic wellness experiences with us.

-Kathryn Hayward, MD

The Journey of Living Whole Online: Growth Starts with a Seed

The Living Whole seed was planted in 2013 when Dr. Kathryn Hayward and a group of like-minded professional colleagues created International Integrators, whose mission is to promote Integrative Whole Health globally. The seed sprouted and flourished when we began offering our Living Whole Immersion Retreats, bringing groups of people together in the redwood forests of California, the mountains northwest of Madrid, Spain, and the open spaces of western Massachusetts. We had to cease these gatherings because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Living Whole Online spread its roots during this pandemic, which focused a spotlight worldwide on the personal stories, struggles and suffering that had been hidden in the shadows. The chaos and uncertainty of the pandemic invited a global heightening of awareness.

We continue to live in complicated times. The coronavirus pandemic helped expose myriad health, economic, climate, and social stresses. During times of despair and change, above all, we seek hope and connection. We want to do more than survive...

We Want to THRIVE

To THRIVE, You Make A Commitment To Invest In Yourself

If you invest in yourself for 21 days, you can change a habit.
If you invest in yourself for 90 days, you can change your lifestyle.
If you keep investing, day after day, month after month, you will be amazed at how you can THRIVE...
