Empowering Every Heartbeat: Honoring CPR & AED Awareness Week

Every June 1–7, our nation pauses to observe CPR and AED Awareness Week, a vital time to reflect on the life-saving power that lies within each of us. At Wolflinx Jewelry, where every handcrafted piece holds meaning, this week reminds us of the quiet strength found in preparedness, compassion, and community action.

What Is CPR & AED Awareness Week?

Established by Congress in 2007, CPR and AED Awareness Week shines a light on two powerful tools in the fight against sudden cardiac arrest—Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs). Each year, over 350,000 cardiac arrests happen outside of hospitals in the United States. Immediate CPR can double or triple a person’s chance of survival—a statistic too important to ignore.

Why It Matters to Us

Just as we turn to gemstones for grounding and protection, so too can we turn to CPR knowledge as a form of practical healing—protecting life in its most vulnerable moment. Learning CPR is an act of hope. Knowing how to use an AED is a promise to be present. In both, we see the spirit of our community in action.

Healing Comes in Many Forms

At Wolflinx Jewelry, we speak often of emotional healing and the symbolic protection our stones provide. But healing is also physical, urgent, and communal. This week, we honor the healers who act swiftly in crisis, and we invite you to be among them. Whether you’re learning CPR for the first time or renewing your certification, your knowledge could be someone’s miracle.

How You Can Get Involved

• Take a CPR class through the Red Cross or local health organizations. Many offer free or low-cost courses.
  
  

• Learn to use an AED—they are often located in schools, gyms, airports, and community centers.
  
  

• Share awareness on social media and within your circle. You never know who might be inspired to act.
  
  

• Create an emergency plan with your loved ones. Knowing where an AED is can save precious time.
