Health Guide, which includes content from the American Heart Association®, is your new way to manage your blood pressure.
We want to help you understand your blood pressure numbers and help you make lifestyle changes that may help improve your heart health.
When you track your blood pressure and get personalized support, you can build healthy habits that help you work toward your best heart-healthy lifestyle. Plus, you’ll be entered into a sweepstakes to win a $50 gift card from Higi every month you complete two check-ins through the Health Guide at a Station.
How does the sweepstakes work?
Each month you complete two Health Guide check-ins at a Higi Station, you’ll be entered to win one of five $50 gift cards from Higi. Visiting a Higi Station twice a month isn’t easy but knowing you could get rewarded for it can give you extra motivation. You’ll get reminders when it’s time to visit a Higi Station!

When it comes to managing your blood pressure, there’s a handful of healthy habits that make a big difference. When you start Health Guide, you get to choose one to focus on: eating better, exercising, managing your medications, coping with stress, or quitting smoking.
