Winter weather can be beautiful, but it can also be demanding on the heart. Shoveling snow is more strenuous than many people realize, especially in cold temperatures, and it can increase the risk of heart-related emergencies.

This February, we encourage everyone to take heart health seriously: pace yourself, take breaks, and don’t hesitate to ask for help when snow needs clearing. Protecting your health is one of the most important things you can do for yourself and your loved ones.

Leave a ❤️ if you are or will be mindful of your heart health this month!
