Today kicks off American Heart Month, underscoring the importance of cardiovascular health.

Every year, over 350,000 cardiac arrests happen outside of a hospital, with most happening at home. Sadly, only 10% survive. By giving someone CPR you can double or even triple their chances of survival. Be ready when it matters most. Learn CPR and become part of the Nation of Lifesavers™.

General ways to practice heart health:
❤️Get enough quality sleep
❤️Eat better
❤️Maintain a healthy weight
❤️Be more active
❤️Stop smoking
❤️Control cholesterol
❤️Manage blood sugar
❤️Manage stress
❤️Control blood pressure
❤️Practice self-care and find social support
