The heart has come to symbolize love and romance, celebrated every February 14th on Saint Valentine’s Day. The heart also signifies passion and vitality. Long before modern medical science, people knew the beating heart was vital to life. For this reason, the heart symbol is also associated with health and well being.
It is also Heart Month in Canada, which means it’s a time to bring attention to the importance of heart health and what you can do to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
