📚❤️ Back to School, Back to Heart-Smart Routines 🩺🎒
As a new school year begins, it’s not just about sharpening pencils—it’s also the perfect time to refocus on heart health for the whole family.
For heart patients, this season can be a helpful reminder to get back into supportive routines:
🥗 Plan heart-smart meals – Low-sodium, high-fiber lunches and snacks can prevent setbacks. Pack ahead when you can.
🚶♀️ Stay active – Even short walks during school drop-offs or pick-ups can help. Movement matters.
🧘♂️ Manage stress – Transitions can be tough. Use breathing techniques, journaling, or quiet time to reduce heart strain.
🩺 Schedule checkups – Use the fresh start to book labs, cardiac follow-ups, or flu shots. Prevention is key - schedule your appointment with us today! 972-372-4505
👉 And don’t forget the kids:
Heart health begins early! Encourage balanced meals, daily activity, plenty of sleep, and healthy screen-time limits. These habits set the foundation for a strong heart now—and for life.
