Working on Wellness: Heart Healthy Habits
February is American Heart Month
A great reminder that taking care of your heart doesn’t stop when the workday starts. The habits we practice each day at work play an important role in supporting heart health, safety, and overall well-being.
Heart-Healthy Habits
Move regularly: Stretching, walking, or changing positions throughout the day supports circulation and helps prevent strain and fatigue.
Manage stress: High stress can affect heart health and concentration. Taking short breaks or practicing deep breathing can help reset both mind and body.
Fuel and hydrate: Eating balanced meals and staying hydrated helps maintain energy levels and alertness.
Rest and recover: Breaks and adequate rest support heart health, mental clarity, and safe decision-making.
Managing stress, staying energized, and maintaining healthy habits can improve focus, reduce fatigue, and help us show up fully, both at work and at home.
