Looking for a fun springtime craft the whole family will love? Work together to paint colorful decorations onto clay flower pots and use them to plant heirloom tomatoes to brighten your yard or a kitchen windowsill.
Heirloom tomatoes are a rich source of vitamin C, an immune-building nutrient that nourishes the adrenal glands and reduces stress. Tomatoes are also rich in potassium for healthy blood pressure levels and vitamin K for strong bones. 🌱🍅 #CleanEating #HealthyLiving

Spring cleaning is as good for your health as it is for your home! Scrubbing away winter’s buildup of dust and pet dander will freshen your rooms and eliminate allergies, while all that elbow grease is a great calorie-burner and proven stress reducer. You’ll breathe easier and sleep better, too.
How does spring cleaning help you feel healthier?

Here he is as a puppy. ➡️ Swipe to see him as an all grown-up good boy today. Happy National Puppy day to all the pups out there! ❤️🐶 #puppyday

Since yesterday was #WorldDownSyndromeDay, we want to share the extraordinary story of Harper who is a cmnhospitals Miracle Kid at Mercy Children's. Milestones are difficult enough to reach without the extraordinary health issues. Though Harper was born three weeks early, nothing on her mother’s ultrasounds indicated problems, including Down Syndrome. Harper had two holes in her heart that did not close at birth and was diagnosed with apnea. After 11 days in the NICU, she was sent home with an apnea monitor. A phone call one day from daycare put her family in a tailspin – she was turning blue. Harper was monitored and tested at Mercy Children’s Hospital while battling E.coli that had gotten into her blood stream and spread throughout her system. Two weeks of heavy antibiotics finally rid her system of the infection. A couple months later, she was again admitted to Mercy Children’s with parainfluenza and E.coli. Remaining tough through these battles, Harper is now in physical, occupational and water therapy and soon, speech therapy. Now, hitting some milestones is slowly coming to fruition.

Spring is finally here! It’s time for a fresh start. Try incorporating these habits into your daily routine for a bright and healthy season.
1️⃣ Add one serving of fruits or vegetables to every meal, like banana slices to your breakfast cereal or tomatoes on a sandwich.
2️⃣ Serve salads with colorful in-season veggies like snap peas, radishes, artichokes, and rhubarb along with lean protein for dinner a few nights each week.
3️⃣ Start sweating. Go for a brisk walk in the sunshine or play outside with your kids.
4️⃣ Take time for yourself each day, even if it's only 5 minutes of quiet reflection.
How will you reset this spring?
