Welcome to Healthline’s Heart Health Reset — a 7-day series designed to help you find simple habits that support your heart for the long run.

Your heart works hard for you every day. It moves with you through daily routines, steadies you through change, and helps you navigate big moments, including the ones that make your heart flutter.

It carries more weight than we realize. We push through busy schedules without slowing down, promising ourselves that we’ll rest later. But our hearts need us to take notice now. When heart health is overlooked, it can cause a quiet strain, affecting energy levels and the body’s ability to recover.

That’s why we created the Heart Health Reset, a 7-day guide focused on everyday heart health.

Each day, we’ll break down the small daily habits that can help protect your heart over time, along with expert-reviewed guidance and practical tips for building your own heart health routines.

We all have a heart to look after.

Our hearts connect to vital systems throughout our bodies, including circulation, breathing, and the regulation of our nervous system. When we neglect our heart health, it can strain our bodies, depleting these key functions, most notably our energy levels and our ability to recover.

These effects can happen gradually and often quietly, which is why it’s so important to take notice early.

A 2022 review found that building a healthy lifestyle, including regular movement, balanced eating habits, and adequate sleep, can all contribute to a reduced risk of heart disease and a healthier and stronger heart overall.

Heart disease in women

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women worldwide, often affecting them in ways that go unrecognized. Staying informed about heart health can give everyone the tools they need to advocate for themselves, make informed decisions, and take steps that protect their heart.

How this reset can help

This 7-day reset will help you discover how simple actions can improve how you move, eat, rest, and even connect with others, supporting long-term heart health.

Remember, you don’t need a diagnosis to begin caring for your heart. Instead, you can focus on small, consistent habits that help protect your heart over time.

The Heart Health Reset is an invitation to pause and turn your attention inward. It’s designed to help you:

  • learn how everyday behaviors contribute to long-term heart health
  • feel informed and in control of your heart health
  • build long-lasting habits you’ll actually have time for

Each day, we’ll break down the small daily habits that can help protect your heart over time.

We’ll focus on:

  • stress management
  • exercise routines for all fitness levels
  • sleep, rest, and recovery
  • social connection
  • nutrition and everyday recipes
  • preventive health screenings

We’ll be incorporating expert advice and community quotes with high quality health information reviewed by our network of medical professionals to ensure you feel in control of your heart health.
