“I got the new Heart & Soul magazine in the mail and it’s amazing how much is packed into it. I was so impressed with how truly holistic their stance is. It’s the only magazine out there targeting our black female community that is really integrating the lifestyle practices, and principles that promote optimal wellness. So many of our publications skim the surface or ignore the glaring truths about our health. It was refreshing to peel through the pages and find enriching content that I felt spoke to my soul- so thank you!”- Latham Thomas, Health Guru and Author of Mama Glow.
The newly revamped Heart & Soul magazine is redefining the way the media speaks to black women. The content is fresh, relevant and informative. As the only national platform of health and wellness for women of color, Heart & Soul has a duty to evolve with the ever growing demands. Editor-in-Chief, Anita Kopacz, and Creative Director, Tischen Franklin, have joined forces to create a magazine that reflects the true beauty and wisdom of optimal health in the black community.
In her letter from the editor, Anita states that, “Health and wellness are innate factors in our being. As children, our bodies practiced forgiveness. We could eat the occasional candy bar or pig-out on pizza. But as we mature, our bodies become increasingly more reflective of our environment. We have all seen that donut go straight to our thighs! On the other hand, this increasing awareness and reflectivity can uplift us to unimaginable heights. As we mature, our body’s wisdom can flourish with each act of respect we afford ourselves. That morning yoga session or visit to the therapist’s couch is never in vain. As we consciously adjust our environment for the betterment of our mind, body and soul, we open ourselves to the unlimited possibilities that exist in every moment. We move from limited thinking to an abundant reality.”
Russell Simmons recognized Anita’s healing words when he offered to write the foreword to her debut book, Finding Your Way: Alphabetical Keys to the Divine. He states that her words are like scripture, written for today. In Heart & Soul, Anita combines health-conscious content with the creative know-how of Tischen Franklin, known as the force that re-imagined Vibe’s creative direction, to design a magazine with magnetic synergy.
We definitely recommend that you pick up a copy of Heart & Soul magazine, you will not regret it.
