🦋 Have you also become a new person in the last month?
Is it just me? Or have you been experiencing major changes inside of you, too?
🌀 A long painful cycle has ended and a new hopeful cycle is beginning. Do you also feel that in your bones?
🦋 This metamorphosis has been characterized by:
-Clear seeing of my own harmful patterns of thought and behavior
-Release of resentment and grudges
-New hopeful visions for my future
-Restored faith in divine timing and spiritual guidance
-A returned belief in the truth and power of love
✍️ The key change: I am rewriting the story I have been telling myself about my life.
💔 The old story was:
-I have never actually known love
-I am not truly understood by anyone
-I have been a victim of betrayal
-Heartbreak has broken me
-I must settle for what I have seen is available to me
-The dreams I had for my life were naive
❤️ The new story is:
-I have experienced deep true love, even though it was messy and didn’t last forever
-When I am courageous enough to be myself I find kindred spirits who effortlessly understand me
-Everyone is on their own trip and nothing is personal (even though that is very difficult to accept)
-My wounding has made me more compassionate and wise
-I trust that I will experience the actualization of my dreams
-Truly transcendent love is available, dare I say: inevitable
I understand the temptation to deflate your spirit with cynicism, victim-mentality, and lack of hope.
I validate how difficult it can be to keep the faith that love and beauty are available.
❤️🩹 I wish for you:
-Steadfast patience and gentle self-soothing when you are unable to dream
-Faith that your dreams will return
-The ability to rewrite your story from the data-points of your memory in a way that gives yourself grace, agency, and healing
📚 Reading bell hooks’ All About Love has been instrumental in my recent transformation. If you feel the need to investigate and reinvigorate the concept of love in your life, read that book!

Inger is finding new confidence in her abilities and in herself:
Inger says: “I am so grateful to be on this journey. I get so inspired by The Cohesion Collective. It is a safe place to be and grow where I feel confident to be who I am.”
Jenny recovered her passion after a period of feeling burned out:
"I’ve done a few training programs and Dance Cohesion aligns with my goals as a performer and teacher the most. Very well structured, very clear, thorough, full of intent and passion. I am very grateful for the opportunity to study with April Rose. My favorite learning moments were the ones where she emphasized the significance of cohesion and how positive feedback and making everyone feel welcome is crucial. I learned a lot about myself as a teacher, a student, and about my role as a bellydancer in my community. I already knew my passion was in sharing dance and I have always loved teaching beginners more than anything for the same reason April emphasizes, to get the art out there for more people to experience it. Dance Cohesion ignited the passion inside me to continue to do this with more vigor and thorough presentation. I can’t say thank you enough!"
