Dear Exercise Aficionado: An invitation to Share Your Favorite Workout

An Invitation from Hope & Cynthia, authors, Your 2021 What’s Next Journal

Dear Exercise Aficionado,

How comforting it is to end the year with a sense of relief. Yes, the world is still struggling with a devastating pandemic. Yes, we continue to reel from a caustic presidential election. And yes, we are all working to discover the new normal. So what a blessing it is to look back on all that we’ve been through in 2020, pat ourselves on the back for making it through — and knowing in our hearts that a new year awaits, one filled with infinite possibilities!

With that goal in mind, we hope to shine a little light on your life with the release of our newest Inkandescent™ Publishing title: Your 2021 What’s Next Journal.

  • Filled with insights from 12 industry leaders about what they see coming in their businesses and lives, our goal is to help you flip through the months of the year with their guidance and support.
  • Each month’s chapter also features interactive prompts to help you focus and center your:
    • Mind (writing options from Hope)
    • Body (exercise ideas to help you feel fit all year) — this is where you come in!
    • Spirit (52 sets of affirmations)
    • Soul (art ideas by Cynthia)
    • Heart (healthy recipes from 12 of our favorite female chefs)

Our goal is to help readers fill the pages with their powerful thoughts and creative representations that will help them to go deeper into their psyche, and truly create the life of their dreams in 2021, and beyond.

What better way to open our hearts and minds than to give our bodies a good workout?

You are invited: We are inviting you to pick a month from our Table of Contents, below. Each month / chapter of the Journal has its own theme, so choose that one that resonates with you and share your favorite exercise routine with details about how any woman can get moving.

This can include:

  • a yoga pose, stretch, workout, cool-down (yoga teachers: tell us how we can take your class)
  • your biking, swimming or running routine (tell us all about it)
  • any other form of exercise that you teach (details please so we can point women to you)

What we’ll need:

  • Reserve your spot: hope@hopegibbs.com
  • On your entry: Be sure to include your name, title and a link to your website
  • Bio + Photo: Also send a short bio, and a high-res photo of you in action
  • Video: Better yet, record a short video of you doing the exercise for us to post on our magazines — InkandescentWomen.com and BeInkandescent Health & Wellness, www.BeInkandescent.com.

Are you game? If so, scroll down to find our Table of Contents to pick your month. Or, just send us your favorite and we’ll find a perfect month to match it to.  

Here’s to your incredible, indelible, Inkandescent future! — Hope Katz Gibbs, publisher, Inkandescent Women magazine, www.InkandescentWomen.com / hope@hopegibbs.com and Cynthia de Lorenzi, founder, Success in the City, www.SuccessIntheCity.org
