Via, International Women’s Day and Mothering Sunday

If you haven’t yet discovered Via (WI’s digital home for learning) it may just be an idea to have a look at what’s on offer.  It’s been a strange weather week with hints of Spring on one day and hail stones, mists, and chill winds on others.  So, not wanting to be in the garden,  I signed up for a lecture lead by consultant cardiologist Dr Sonya Babu-Narayam.  She’s an expert who wants us to take care of our hearts, in particular women’s hearts.  Cardiovascular disease is the world’s biggest killer of women.  Working with the British Heart Foundation she is determined to improve outcomes for women and this lecture she explained symptoms linked to heart disease.  It’s vital not to ignore signs, check with this link Women and heart disease – BHF  Not only should we be celebrating women’s achievements and cherishing mothers, we should be kind to ourselves and taking care of our health.

Via gives you access to many lectures and courses.  Have a look, I certainly learnt new facts from the lecture I listened to this week, thank you Dr Babu-Narayam.
