February 2025: RADIANCE

Happy love month and Black History Month!!

As I was planning out what themes we would do for the month of February the idea of creating a Yogalates love story through music continued to pop up. There are soooo many great Black love songs that I couldn't possibly fit it all into one class. So I decided that I would take you all on a journey. A journey through the feeling of falling in love, the honeymoon phase, that deep old school love, heartbreak and than the most important love, self-love.

When you love yourself truly and choose love over fear, that energy radiates through you and out to others. Fear keeps us stuck and small but love expands everything and radiates out.

JOURNAL PROMPTS:

• Think of the moment you felt love's first spark. What did that moment feel like?

• Describe how that energy changed the way you moved through the world that day.

• "Think of a moment when love invited you to be more authentic. It could be with a friend, a family member, or even with yourself. What gave you the courage to lower your guard?

• How did that moment of brave vulnerability change you?"

• Think of a time when love asked you to grow beyond what you thought possible. How did deep love challenge your understanding of yourself? What parts of you bloomed because someone held space for your entire truth?

• Remember the moment your heart broke or drastic change happened. How did that pain transform you?

• What wisdom came out of it?

• What does the journey back to self-love look like for you? Document the small moments of choosing yourself, of remembering your worth.

• How will you show yourself more self-love in the coming weeks? Months?
