According to the American Heart Association, about 85 million Americans (one
out of every three adults over age 20) have high blood pressure. Of those, one out
of six don’t even know it.
Your blood pressure deserves your attention. Uncontrolled hypertension can be
fatal. Here are some simple steps that will help you take control of your health.

Health Tips for 2018Use these four tips to improve your health in 2018. These suggestions are simple, realistic,
effective and easy for everyone to follow.
1. Make Sleep a Priority. Getting 7-9 hours of sleep at night helps you stay
focused and more productive the following day.
2. Eat Breakfast. A healthy breakfast improves focus and concentration, as well as
aids in maintaining a healthy weight.
3. Include More Variety. Eat a variety of colored fruits and vegetables to maintain
health and prevent chronic diseases.
4. Eat Smaller Portions. Reducing the size of your portions by 25 percent can
slash up to 250 calories per day and help you lose one-half pound per week.
Stay full during the day by eating healthy.

Know your numbers : Maintaining a blood
pressure that is below 140/90 mm Hg is
important (120/80 mm Hg or below is ideal).
Work with professionals : Ask your healthcare
provider for a specific plan as to what you
should do to lower your blood pressure. Seek
out other professionals, such as a dietitian or
exercise physiologist, in addition to your doctor.
Make lifestyle changes : Maintain a healthy
weight by eating healthier and exercising
regularly (30 minutes or more, most days a
week).
Take your blood pressure medication : Discontinuing taking your meds without
consulting with your doctor may contribute to
other medical problems, such as heart attack or
stroke.
Check your blood pressure regularly : Use
a public blood pressure machine or ask an
exercise physiologist or nurse to check it for
you. Keep a record of your readings.
Avoid all tobacco products : Not only does
smoking or chewing tobacco immediately
raise your blood pressure, but the chemicals in
tobacco can damage the lining of your artery
walls.
Lower your stress levels : Find healthy ways
to de-stress every day. Say no to extra tasks,
release negative thoughts, maintain good
relationships and be optimistic.
Cut back on caffeine : For people who are
caffeine-sensitive, caffeinated beverages may
raise their blood pressure.
Get support : Supportive family and friends
can help improve your health by encouraging
you to work out, accompanying you to doctors’
appointments, etc.
Sleep well : Not getting enough good sleep
can negatively affect your blood pressure. Try
setting up a regular sleep schedule where you
can get 7-8 hours of sleep every night.
The HealthPlex will be open from 8
a.m. to 10 p.m. on Monday, January 1.

Small Group Training (SGT)
Follow the path to health, healing and awakening. Relax in a comfortable position while a trained iRest instructor guides you through a mindful meditation experience. Tap into a place that is calm – even when life is not. Experience true health, resiliency and well-being.
Exploring the practice of iRest will help you cope with the everyday stresses of life, as well as serious trauma or pain. This evidence-based meditation practice leads to enhanced psychological, physical and spiritual well-being. It teaches you to welcome life as it is happening and respond positively to challenging situations.
