Self-care means taking time to support your physical and mental well-being. It can reduce stress, boost energy, and lower your risk of illness—even small daily habits make a difference.

Tips for self-care:
▪ Move regularly: Even short walks can improve mood and health.
▪ Eat well & stay hydrated: A balanced diet and enough water help with focus and energy.
▪ Prioritize sleep: Stick to a routine and reduce screen time before bed.
▪ Relax: Try meditation, breathing exercises, or activities you enjoy.
▪ Think positively: Challenge negative thoughts.
▪ Stay connected: Lean on supportive friends and family.

Self-care is personal—experiment to find what works for you.

What do you do BEFORE you get sick to stay healthy?

That’s what Preventive Care is about! You can manage things like your eating habits, daily exercise, and preventive check ups.

At annual wellness visits, your doctor or other health care provider will ask you to fill out a questionnaire called a “Health Risk Assessment”. Answering these questions help you and your doctor develop a personalized prevention plan to help you stay healthy and get the most out of your visit. Your visit may include:
✅Routine measurements (like height, weight, and blood pressure).
✅A review of your medical and family history.
✅A review of your current prescriptions.
✅Personalized health advice.
✅Advance care planning.

Stay prepared and call 740-399-8008 to schedule an appointment at any of our locations!
