Challenge Tips

Gratitude isn’t just a warm and fuzzy feeling; it’s like a booster shot for your heart. 

Research suggests that practicing gratitude can have a positive impact on biomarkers related to cardiovascular disease risk. In simpler terms, it’s a heart-healthy habit. So, are you ready to sprinkle a little gratitude into your day? 

Start by taking time to reflect on something you're thankful for. It could be a supportive colleague, a successful patient outcome, or even a moment of personal growth. Cultivate gratitude not just in your mind but put it into words. Consider keeping a gratitude journal or sharing your appreciation with a colleague. 

These simple acts of thankfulness don’t just lift your spirits. Over time they may lead to better cardiovascular function and reduce your risk of heart-related issues. It’s a small investment with a potentially significant return.
