I'm Dana Marie, a 25-year-old born and raised in Chicago. Although it doesn't define me, I've been living with Crohn's Disease since I was 9-years-old. My blog, Soul Food, will focus on my path to healing--mind, body, & spirit.
Obsessions include, but are not limited to: country music, dancing, yoga-ing, surfing, reggae, cupcakes, playing outside, finding good music, the ocean, Lake Geneva, puppies, great conversation over a cup a joe, crafts, reading, spontaneity, good & strong hugs, learning Italian, making people happy, and spreadin' love through teaching yoga.
I am pretty much in love with life. I guess you could say I've experienced a fair share in my 25 years. But, I would never take it back because these challenges have made me who I am today. I believe we should use the challenges in our lives as opportunities to rise above our own limits. Instead of becoming bitter and detached in response to our challenges, let's cultivate compassion and gratitude. Let's live our lives with intention. Let's live like we really mean it.
Are you in?
xoxo,
