What Makes Your Heart Pound (in a good way)

By Carrie Vittitoe “There are benefits of romance to heart health,” says advice columnist and speaker Joyce Oglesby, and the research supports this statement.

A loving relationship helps people manage their stress because they have a sounding-board, someone who they know is by their side through all the good and bad. “When romance is fresh and alive, it doesn’t matter what comes [...]

Where to Go Next? “I decided what I want are experiences. I want to live my life right now, not waiting until I retire or have the next thing.”

She had done everything “right”: she bought a house, paid her bills on time, and amassed a plethora of possessions. But her [...]

A Heart in Emotional Recovery: “You don’t get wisdom from a pill…”

By Carrie Vittitoe Many of us think of heart health as being purely physical, but emotions also play a role.

Recovery Inc. of Kentucky, located in the Highlands, opened in 1952 and offers anonymous support groups for people who are struggling with their mental health. Janice Kaelin serves as the director of Recovery Inc. and benefited from its service herself when she was a young mother dealing with postpartum depression in the [...]
