January is National Thyroid Awareness Month.

An estimated of 20 million Americans have some form of thyroid disease, and up to 60% of those with thyroid disease are unaware of their condition.

According to the American Thyroid Association, undiagnosed thyroid conditions place patients at serious risk of cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and infertility.

As we start 2025, now is a great time to schedule your annual physical and speak to your healthcare provider about your thyroid health.

A major winter storm and potential ice storm will move through the Eastern U.S. this weekend. Impacts are expected in north Georgia and now is the time to prepare! The forecast isn't as certain for central Georgia, but this is still a situation you should monitor closely.

The start of a new year can bring pressure to “do more” or “be better”—to resolve everything at once. It’s okay to move at your own pace. January is a great time to focus on rest, routine, and realistic goals.

Feeling overwhelmed by everything you want to achieve this year? Try writing all your ideas and goals down on paper. 📝 Let your thoughts flow freely—you can always come back later to prioritize what’s truly important. Think of it as freeing up space in your mind while caring for yourself. 💆‍♀️
_______
El comienzo de un nuevo año puede generar presión para "hacer más" o "ser mejor", para resolverlo todo a la vez. Está bien ir a tu propio ritmo. Enero es un buen momento para concentrarse en el descanso, la rutina y las metas realistas.

¿Te sientes abrumado/a por todo lo que quieres lograr este año? Intenta escribir todas tus ideas y objetivos en un papel. 📝 Deja que tus pensamientos fluyan libremente; siempre puedes volver más tarde para priorizar lo que es realmente importante. Piensa en ello como una forma de liberar espacio en tu mente mientras cuidas de ti mismo/a. 💆‍♀️
