February is American Heart Month, and I’ve partn February is American Heart Month, and I’ve partnered with @MedIQCME and Duke Health to raise awareness about atrial fibrillation (AFib), also known as irregular heartbeat which affects 12 million people.My father was diagnosed with AFib and my family has a history of this condition, so I do my best to learn as much as I can about it.

I’ve learned that when the atrium’s squeezing becomes irregular, blood doesn’t flow as smoothly through the heart and clots can form. Those clots can travel to the brain, disrupting the oxygen supply and causing a stroke. People with AFib are at approximately 5 times greater risk for stroke than those with regular heartbeats. Stroke is a leading cause of death and also of serious, long-term disability. It is essential to get to a hospital quickly if you suspect a stroke in yourself or others.Learn the acronym FAST to recognize the signs of stroke: 

F = Face. Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?

A = Arms. Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? 

S = Speech. Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange?

T= Time. If you see any of these signs, call 9-1-1 right away.

Take this survey (link in bio) for the chance to win 1 of 5 $100 VISA gift cards—takes less than 10 minutes.

Thanks, @mediqcme, and Duke Heart. Supported by an educational grant from the Bristol Myers Squibb and Pfizer Alliance.

Giveaway: Hershey’s Family Play Day Prize Pack


TheCubicleChick.com Disclaimer

With the passing of Memorial Day, the unofficial start of summer is here! Getting the kiddos moving and keeping them active during the summer months can be a chore, especially since school is out and there’s so much technology. Video games, computers, and other gadgets can make for inactivity. HERSHEY’s is committed to helping promote an active lifestyle, and are sponsoring HERSHEY’s Family Play Days across the country. Here in St. Louis, I will be on hand for HERSHEY’s Family Play Day, which is being held this Wednesday, May 29th—for more information on that event, click HERE.

In addition to hosting HERSHEY’s Play Day St. Louis, I am also giving away a prize pack of some pretty neat goodies!

Hershey's Family Play Day Prize PackThe HERSHEY’s Family Day Prize Pack is as follows:

  • Play Activity Cards
  • Nike $50.00 Gift Card
  • Sidewalk Chalk
  • Jump Ropes
  • Soccer Ball
  • Softball
  • Frisbee
  • 1  bag HERSHEY’S Kisses Brand Chocolates

This giveaway is open to all of my readers, so make sure to enter. This giveaway ends Wed., June 11th at 7pm CST, void where prohibited. To enter to win, simply leave a comment below stating how you and your kids plan to stay active this summer. The winner will be selected at random and notified via email, so make sure to leave a valid, working email address when commenting. If the winner doesn’t claim the prize within 48 hours, an alternate winner will be selected.

Please make sure to follow HERSHEY’s and The Cubicle Chick on FB for updates!

How do I plan to stay active this summer? I will be doing yoga, taking neighborhood walks, and getting some swimming in at our neighborhood pool. Staying active is a part of being healthy and instilling good habits in our kids.

Happy summer, everyone!

For more ways to get active as a family, visit www.TheModerationNation.com.

*Disclosure: I was invited by Hershey to be their blogger spokesperson at the HERSHEY’S Family Play Day in St. Louis. This post is one piece of that partnership. I will also be present at the games in St. Louis, MO on May 29. Nominal compensation is being provided. All expressed opinions are my own.

    We plan to stay active by walking. I’ve been actively walking for about 7 weeks and can now do my route about 15 minutes faster than when I started. I chose a route that includes two hills. I walk down one and up the other and then turn around and do the route in reverse so that I get the benefit of walking (well actually huffing) up both hills. My daughter lives in a different city and she walks to and from work. She just moved a little bit farther from her work, but continues to walk. She also sometimes walks on her days off.
