Move More!

Your heart thrives when you build movement into your routine - no gym required. Think of it the same way you think about taking your daily medications: small, consistent actions make the biggest impact over time. Adding a few extra steps during errands, stretching while the coffee brews, or standing up between tasks keeps your heart engaged and supported throughout the day. Little habits truly add up to long-term heart health.

Laughter is the Best Medicine for your Heart

Laughter isn't just good for the soul. It's good for your heart, too. A good laugh can help your blood vessels relax and widen, boosting healthy blood flow. It also helps reduce stress hormones that can tighten those vessels. Over time, regular laughter is linked with better stress resilience, improved mental well-being, and stronger heart health. So go ahead and share a joke with someone who always makes you smile. Your heart may thank you for it.

Are you getting lots of sleep, but still feeling tired and rundown? Maybe you're not getting enough quality sleep. Most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep per night to wake up feeling rested. There are four elements that go into quality sleep: Sleep latency (how long it takes you to fall asleep), Awakenings (number of times you wake up during the night), wake after sleep onset (the amount of time you are awake after first falling asleep), and sleep efficiency (the ratio of time asleep to time lying in bed). Want to know more? Check out this article from the National Sleep Foundation: https://www.thensf.org/what-is-sleep-quality/
And if you have questions about supplements or sleep aides, ask your pharmacist.

Since environmental humidity is lower in the winter, our skin tends to dry out. To combat winter dry skin, you can take shorter, cooler showers, apply moisturizer right after and drink more water. Some other ideas include watching ingredients in your skin care routine for things that dry out your skin, avoiding fragrances and dyes in your laundry detergent, and running a humidifier at home. If you have questions about your skin routine, come by and have a chat with our pharmacist!
