When 24-year-old Corey Blow's heart stopped beating, a co-worker helped save his life with CPR. Could you do the same? If not, it's time to relearn this technique.

The American Heart Association's CPR Anytime for Family and Friends Personal Learning Program includes an inflatable mini-dummy, instructional DVD and booklet. Learn -- and practice -- the basics at home, on your schedule. The kit will be updated to include new CPR guidelines in March.

Get the kit for $29.95 and more details at americanheart.org.
