Show your love for your heart and join the World Heart Day movement - get active, eat healthy, and spread awareness!
Get excited and show your heart some love on World Heart Day on Sept. 29! This day was created in 2000 by the World Heart Federation, to raise awareness about cardiovascular disease and how to prevent it. It's an annual reminder of all the things we can do to take care of our hearts—from exercising regularly, eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, reducing stress levels as well as visiting a doctor for regular checkups.
Making the switch to a healthy diet is one of the best things you can do for your heart. Whether it's an exotic dish with plenty of vegetables or just adding some extra fruits and whole grains, make sure you fill your plate with nutritious options.
Getting regular exercise is essential for maintaining a healthy heart. So take a few minutes out of your day to go on a 30 minute walk. You’ll be able to clear your mind and give your body some much needed energy.
Yoga combines physical exercise with relaxation techniques to help improve cardiovascular health and reduce stress. Invite friends and family to join you for an afternoon of stretching, breathing and relaxation.
Using paper, paint, crayons or markers, create something that celebrates World Heart Day! Hang it up in your house or office as a reminder to take care of your heart.
