HELPFUL HABITS FOR HEART HEALTH

❤️A Community Resource

These seven lifestyle tips are fact-checked and designed to uplift, not overwhelm. Every step counts. Every heart matters.

Move a little, often. Short walks, stretching, or light chores help circulation and mood. Even 5–10 minutes adds up.
Eat for your heart, not perfection. Choose whole foods when you can like fruits, veggies, lean proteins, and healthy oils.
Sleep is healing. Aim for 7–8 hours of quality sleep. Rest helps regulate blood pressure, mood, and recovery.
Stress relief is heart care. Deep breathing, prayer, journaling, or gentle movement can lower inflammation and blood pressure. Try it!
Stay connected. Isolation affects heart health. Reach out to friends, family, or support groups even if it is done virtually.
Track your numbers, not your worth. Monitor blood pressure, cholesterol, and glucose. We emphasize the importance of knowing your numbers.
Celebrate small wins. Every healthy choice is a victory. Progress may be slow, but it’s real. Hope grows with consistency.
