“How Sleep Impacts Heart Health” led the health-conscious February issue with a reminder that rest is about far more than beauty sleep — connecting a nightly habit most people shortchange to the leading cause of death, timely for American Heart Month.
“Love at First Bite” indulged the season's romance through food, drawing on the special fascination of French traditions and the elements of that culinary world that make a Valentine's meal feel like an occasion. “Hand Picked” profiled Chris Haycraft, who a dozen years earlier owned a Nashville painting business called Painting Perfection, and traced his path from that trade to a new curated venture. The recurring Pet Corner marked National Pet Dental Health Month with guidance on keeping animals' teeth healthy.
The recurring departments round out a February number that pairs the head and the heart — a gentle argument for taking better care of your heart through sleep, of an evening through good food, of a livelihood through reinvention, sending readers to bed a little earlier and to the kitchen a little more adventurously.
“How Sleep Impacts Heart Health” argued that rest is about far more than beauty sleep — the proper amount is genuinely critical for cardiac wellness. We live in a world, the feature observed, where working to the point of exhaustion is almost worn as a badge of honor, where we rush and go and do and skimp on sleep in the name of productivity. Its remedy was practical: a handful of key habits to take back control and sleep more soundly amid the endless stimulating distractions of modern life.
