Show your red on Friday to support education about the Number 1 Killer of Women!

Myth: Heart disease doesn’t affect women who are fit

Fact: Even if you’re a yoga-loving, marathon-running workout fiend, your risk for heart disease isn’t completely eliminated. Factors like cholesterol, eating habits and smoking can counterbalance your other healthy habits. You can be thin and have high cholesterol. The American Heart Association recommends you start getting your cholesterol checked at age 20, or earlier, if your family has a history of heart disease. And while you’re at it, be sure to keep an eye on your blood pressure at your next check-up.

We have complimentary little red dress pins and info cards to distribute, so come on in and flaunt your red!

Just across the hall, Bliss is filled with things to make you happy and, well, Bliss-full!

Dee was inspired! We’ve had so much fun coloring on Weds. evenings, we decided to continue at least through May and into June!

Some new creations, the one on the left courtesy of Andrea from The Coloring Project (colored by me!).

Kevin hard at work.

Coloring on Weds. evenings has been fun. It’s been a nice chance to have some good conversations with the people who have dropped in. Last night we found out that both Kevin and Dee have been in the Navy, and last week Andrea filled me in on life coaching. And while we talk and drink tea, we’re exploring color, resting our bodies and our brains!

If this sounds fun, you too can join us any Weds. evening from 5:00 ’til 7:30 in the space across the hall where we held the Kristin Ford Trunk Show and our Very Merry Christmas pop-up. And don’t feel you have to stay the whole time – swoop in and swoop out whenever you can fit it into your busy schedule.

And that’s the point – some “down time” in our busy lives!
