Did you know? In the U.S., one person dies from cardiovascular disease every 34 seconds. While the stats are heavy, the connection is clear:

➡️Research shows that 33% of cardiovascular outcomes are directly related to mental health.

➡️ Anxiety and depression significantly raise the risk of heart disease.

➡️Living with heart disease increases the likelihood of developing mental health conditions.

This , remember: Your heart and mind are on a two-way street. ❤️🧠

Managing your mind is protecting your pulse.

Remember: You are stronger than what you've been through.

When you've been through a lot, your body stays on "high alert." Feeling jumpy, tired, or overwhelmed is a natural response to stress -- not a sign of weakness.

At McClendon Center, we believe you shouldn't have to carry that weight by yourself.

We walk right beside you to help your mind and body finally feel safe again. Let’s start the next chapter together.

When we show up for others, we build the very support systems that sustain us all.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. often spoke about the "beloved community," reminding us that our individual well-being is deeply tied to the well-being of others.

As we head into weekend, let this be a reminder: we heal in community and connection, not isolation.
