This is a picture of something I did at my school last year. I wrote out 1,986 sticky notes that each said “You’re beautiful” and stuck one to every locker in my entire school. I was so sick of people saying they weren’t beautiful, and I was so sick of people feeling bad about themselves. For one day, I wanted everyone to feel beautiful. So I did it. It took me over 6 hours to write them all, and an hour to stick them all. I never intended for anyone to find out it was me, but when I was found on camera for doing it and called to the deans office, everyone found out. They threatened a three day suspension. The students made a petition with over 600 signatures. It was amazing. For one day, I felt beautiful. And for one day, I managed to make every kid in my school smile. Every locker got one. Everyone is beautiful.

A few days later, I Had someone, a complete stranger approach me. And she told me, “That day, I was planning on killing myself. I had given up completely on society. Because of you I didn’t. You gave me hope. Thank you.”

She is now one of my best friends.

I guess I should make a new logo/banner thingy next time. But here it is:

2. You can also opt to submit your pose of the day to me or Stephanie.

3. In each pose, we will set an intention for the practice, which is a sort of daily reflection to reflect upon during our own yoga practice. Feel free to pen down your thoughts and reflections as well, I would love to read them!

#RIPTalia

I want to say I can’t wrap my head around the verdict but at the same time this is exactly what I expected. I literally cannot come up with a coherent set of words to describe how I feel right now.

This is history repeating itself right before our eyes. It is the self perpetuating cycle that the...

I am shocked that they let this guy get away. Where is the justice in the world. A man let free while a harmless 17 yr old african american boy is lost to the world. Thanks, my night has just been fucked up. RIP Trayvon MArtin, you will be missed. <3

Hey Lovelies! I decided to do this because Angie (sassyyogi) is traveling abroad and can’t do the next installment of the Yoga Challenge. I loved the first one so much and I didn’t want to stop! I really think documenting the poses are great for progress and to actually really know you’re doing the post correctly.

Remember not to push yourself, just do as much as you can and don’t worry. We’re all in this together for learning, progress and fun! Hold each pose for 4 deep breaths and move out of the pose slowly.

Please tag your posts #fhnjulyyoga #fitnesshealthnutrition or #julyyogachallenge and I’ll be tracking them! Message me if you need anything or have any questions! I really hope you enjoy this challenge I’ve put together! :)

Life's hard when you're Black, and run out of leave in conditioner.

Just the thought stressed me out…

She is so beautiful!
