February 25th is pink shirt day!

Wear pink shirts to show solidarity against bullying, promoting kindness, inclusion, and acceptance in schools, online, and communities. Pink shirt day began in 2007, in Canada after high school students supported a bullied peer by wearing pink and has since grown globally to encourage empathy and create safe, welcoming environments for everyone.

Don't have a pink shirt? It's not too late, support a great cause by purchasing a pink shirt NoahStrong Store. It will be open today from 4:00-6:00pm.

💚 February is Heart Health Month 💚

Here are some helpful tips to reduce the risk of heart disease

❤ Eat Well

Heart-healthy choices can help lower your risk of heart disease and stroke, whether eating at home or dining out.

❤ Get moving

The benefits of healthy activity, by adding 20-30 minutes of exercise into your daily routine, can make a big difference.

❤ Smoking cessation

Smoking and exposure to second-hand smoke increases your risk of developing heart disease or strokes.

Our clinic offers STOP (Smoking Treatment for Ontario Patients) services for our patients. However, those without a primary care provider can access this 6-week program online. See link below for more information or to register.

❤ Managing stress

Identifying things that are causing you stress so you can deal with them effectively.
Dealing with stress can involve creating a calming environment, establishing routines and practicing relaxation techniques. Key strategies include limiting media consumption, exercising, practicing mindfulness, setting boundaries and ensuring adequate sleep to recharge.
