Healthy Heart Tips

Reducing risk is relatively simple: stop smoking, eat healthily, and be
active most days.

Destress: Stress can raise blood pressure and release stress hormones
detrimental to heart health. Use all the destressing techniques that work for
you to reduce daily worries. Establish a long-term stress-reduction plan by
enrolling on meditation.

Herbal Support: Drinking herbal tea is an easy way to support the heart
as you grow older

Just Chill: Those who are quick to anger may be more at risk of
heart attack, angina, heart failure, or stroke. Feeling angry in
middle age makes you more than twice as likely to suffer
heart disease

Find 10 Minutes: If you don’t have time for a full exercise regime,
just do 10 minutes—this brings health benefits, though not the
full complement of an all-out 30-minute daily training session.

EXERCISE TO GET HEALTHY HEART: This breathing exercise
stretches the subtle energy pathway known as the heart meridian,
opens the chest, and reminds you that love is about giving and
receiving. Stand with feet hip-width apart and arms crossed over
your chest (hugging yourself), head down. Inhaling, open your
arms and chest as wide as possible, raising your head.
Exhaling, close your arms gently around yourself.
Repeat several times, changing the cross of your arms
each time.
