This month we’ll see lots of representations of hearts; the symbol of love, spirituality and passion. All of these things, when in balance and healthy, are the additives that truly enrich ours lives, perhaps the reason for living. But our actual heart, the epicenter of our cardiovascular system and the vital organ responsible for keeping up alive, does require effort and attention to remain beautiful and healthy. We don’t get to see pictures of our heart and what it looks like when it’s not healthy, but despite that, we do know what we can do to keep the heart healthy and strong. This formula is a combination of nutrition and exercise. February is American Heart Month. Use this month as a reminder to check your stats (blood pressure, cholesterol) and make it a priority to integrate physical activity into your life to maintain your beautiful heart. Peace <3 |
