More about Dani…
Dani and her husband were high school sweet hearts!! How fun is that?? After the birth of her 4th child, she began to realize she didn’t know herself very well anymore. She set out on a mission to figure out who she was and to get reacquainted.
Dani wrote down 20 questions she would ask someone she admires and then she answered them herself. She asked herself things like:
Do I like listening to Disney music when I’m driving in the car with my kids, or would I rather introduce them to something else that I enjoy? What are my favorite movies? Favorite color? Where would I like to travel? What energizes me? What motivates or empowers me? What are some of my favorite podcasts?
She discovered that yoga and meditation were her favorite ways to give herself some self care.
Benefits of Yoga:
1 deep breath in yoga equals 3 regular breaths
It’s time away in her own space
Her yoga mat is a safe space
