'I Have 20 Times The Energy I Used To Have'
September 30th is World Heart Day
Posted on Sep 24th 2007 2:00PM by Bethany SandersThe World Heart Federation has declared this Friday, September 30th, World Heart Day. Their theme this year is "Team Up for Healthy Hearts" and around the world, communities will be participating in free screenings and fitness activities meant to educate the public and encourage heart-healthy lifestyles.
Can't find an event near you? You can still participate in World Heart Day your own way. Consider wearing red, in support of the Go Red for Women campaign or even plan a casual Friday event where everyone donates $5 to a local heart charity for the "privilege" of wearing jeans. Visit your doctor for a screening, if you haven't had on recently, and encourage a loved one to go as well. Take a walk or a bike ride with your kids to encourage their healthy hearts. Commit to an exercise program. Or just visit an informational website and try to learn more about how you can protect your heart.
