Fashion Flash Monday

This week Mirabai Holland, who writes the health and fitness blog Moving Free with Mirabai and produces and stars in her own exercise videos, is our host.

Besides Valentines Day, February is also Healthy Heart Month. Heart Disease is  the number one killer of women, though if polled, I would have guessed lung or breast cancer, and I suggest I am not alone.

Awareness should be raised.

To her great credit, Mirabai has established a world class cardiac rehabilitation program in NYC, which has now become the model for other centers.  While exercise is her passion, exercise that focus on a healthy heart on her personal passion.

You can read about her suggestions and other heart healthy posts by our blogger group this week by clicking here.
