Looking Out for the Whole Heart

February is back with Valentine’s Day, President’s Day, and Heart Health Month! We know that caring for your heart goes beyond medical prevention and treatment, diet, and exercise, but incorporates the whole body, including stress management and rehabilitation. Henry Mayo is offering a variety of activities this month to help you learn about and care for your whole heart. Join us throughout the month both in person and over Zoom.
