My mission is to educate, empower and encourage people,
so that they can reclaim their health, and live their lives to the fullest.
Dear Event Planner:
I’m Cynthia Libert, M.D., a board certified family physician who’s stepped out of the box of conventional medicine. In 2019 I founded Caring for the Body, PLLC, a private integrative medicine practice in Asheville, NC. I help people recover from complex, chronic illnesses so that they can live their lives to the fullest.
My special interest is in brain health, specifically the mind-body connection and the prevention and reversal of cognitive decline. I am fascinated by the gut microbiome and the gut-brain axis. I speak to groups and teach at the intersection of neuroscience, lifestyle medicine, and Christian spirituality.
I speak to secular and faith-based groups. My heart and my ultimate goal is to help people restore their health, point others to Jesus, the great Physician, and inspire people to find JOY on their journey!
My goal is to communicate life transforming information with audiences, so I am diligently working to hone my craft of being a communicator. I have trained with author and speaker, Amy Carroll with Next Steps Coaching, for message development. I’ve attended the SpeakUP conference with Carol Kent and faculty, and the She Speaks Conference with Lisa TerKeurst of Proverbs 31 Ministries. I’ve been mentored by author and speaker Shannon Ehtridge, and am currently enrolled in a year-long intensive mentorship with Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith.
I welcome invitations for speaking opportunities – corporate meetings, women’s events, community groups, retreats, in-person or virtual. Thank you for your interest in my work, and I look forward to hearing from you!
Joyfully yours,
Cynthia Libert, M.D.
As an integrative physician and follower of Jesus, I have a deep appreciation for how our bodies are innately designed to heal. The word “doctor” derives from the Latin “docere,” which means “to teach.” Teaching is my passion – it’s what drew me to became a doctor in the first place.
My unique Happy Brain, Healthy Body approach to lifestyle medicine is holistic and transformative – and is how I healed my own brain and body.
I would love to share my messages of hope and healing with you!

We believe that the body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and that we are called to be good stewards of our health. (1 Corinthians 6:19)
We believe that we can experience abundant life when we awaken to the reality of our union

Sample Speaking
Dr. Libert’s Signature Workshop
The Joy Prescription – Cultivate Vibrant Health and JOY through Intentional Living and Health Stewardship
We are sick as a human population. From autoimmunity and addictions to cancer and COVID-19, we are collectively suffering. Unfortunately, fifty percent of people have at least one chronic disease and 25% of the population has two or more.
Physical and mental illnesses cause enormous stress, pain and suffering, not only for the affected individual, but for everyone in their circle of influence. Disease often robs us of achieving our dreams and limits our ability to serve those we love.
Yet, science has proven over and over again that most of the chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, high cholesterol, cognitive decline, anxiety, depression and obesity can be prevented, and in many cases actually reversed, by holistic lifestyle measures.
The key to creating health is to proactively build PHYSIOLOGICAL, MENTAL, AND SPIRITUAL stress resilience.
Dr. Libert partners with churches, faith-based community groups and not-for-profit organizations by offering holistic health workshops.
Her goal is to equip people with a practical toolkit for creating vibrant health and building stress resilience based on biblical principles and lifestyle medicine.
In her signature presentation Dr. Libert examines the following:
- The connection between the brain and whole body health
- Early warning signs of chronic illness
- How stress affects the body
- The gut-brain connection
She guides the audience in building their own stress resilience toolkit, including:
- How to squash brain ANTs = Automatic Negative Thoughts
- The power of mindset in creating a life of joy in the midst of unexpected challenges
- How to unlock your inner pharmacy with nutrition and movement
- How to cultivate a diverse, healthy gut microbiome with lifestyle medicine
- And more…
