President Lyndon B. Johnson, in 1963, designated February as American Heart Month. In addition to adopting the current American Heart Association’s* My Life Check | Life’s Simple 7, we may want a tender heart emotional check-up.
The tender heart heals – whereas anger and stress may lead to heart damage.
If once-in-a-while we fail the tender heart check-up, and find ourselves in a temper tantrum, one good antidote is to turn to what Buddhist practitioners call loving-kindness.
Loving-kindness = a tender heart. It removes rage at circumstances/events/people we can’t control. Letting the tender heart lead…soothes, softens and opens us up so that our pulse beats and beats in time to life’s perfect rhythm. WF!
- Donations to the American Heart Association are doubled during February. Here is a link if you would like to give to this excellent health charity.
