Most of us remember having chickenpox as children and thinking that once the rash was gone, the virus was gone too. But that's not quite how it works.

The virus that causes chickenpox, varicella-zoster virus, can remain inactive in your body for years. Later in life, it can reactivate and cause shingles

Shingles often begins with pain, burning, tingling or sensitivity in an area of the skin before a painful rash and blisters appear. While the rash typically clears within a few weeks, some people can develop postherpetic neuralgia, a type of nerve pain that can continue for months or even years.

Shingles can also cause serious complications when it affects areas such as the eye and face.

The good news is that shingles is preventable. The CDC recommends the Shingrix vaccine for adults 50 and older, as well as certain adults 19 and older with weakened immune systems.

If you or someone you love is in one of these groups, talk with your healthcare provider about whether the shingles vaccine is right for you.

Don't wait until you or someone you love experiences shingles to learn about it. Share this post as a reminder.

October reminds us that awareness saves lives. 💗

Breast cancer is most treatable when detected early, so take time for you. Schedule your screening, know your body, and encourage the women (and men) you love to do the same.

Together, through awareness, prevention, and community, we can make early detection the norm, not the exception.

🎗️ Let’s stand strong, stay informed, and support one another in the journey toward health and healing.

Today is a reminder that mental strength deserves as much care as physical strength.


We talk a lot about fitness for the body but true wellness begins in the mind.

Staying grounded through life’s ups and downs isn’t always easy, but it’s possible when we take time to pause, breathe, move and reconnect with ourselves.

⚡ Feeling let down by healthcare, work, and even your own body
⚡ Missing out on special moments and opportunities

This week, let’s raise awareness, show support and help change the perception of migraine. Together, we can make a difference. 💜
