1. Hydration

Diane filled Cosmopolitan in on a few things she learned from her mami. “She tells me about Himalayan salt and just scrubbing it all over your body. But that's also a little brujería [laughs]. She's like, "¡Sácate ese mal!" Most of all, drinking water, so your body and skin can stay hydrated,” she said.
2. Self-Care
When she is feeling low, Diane indulges in self-care. “I do things that make me happy: Call my mother, get some fresh air, read a book. Sometimes I have pineapple when I'm feeling sad. It reminds me of summer joy, my mother feeding it to me for sweetness so I could feel better,” she told Cosmopolitan.
3. Tea

Guerrero is a tea drinker. Her go-to drink is cinnamon & honey tea. “[I] drink that 4 times a day for a week, then take a week off, and do it again for a week. That is for skin & reproductive health,” she told HOLA!
4. Sustainable Food Sources

Guerrero told HOLA! that she grows a small garden because she believes sustainable food sources are the key to securing a sustainable future. “I also eat papaya & granadilla (which is hard to find in the states but I have found it at some farmers markets) which is great for digestion,” she said.
5. Baths
Diane takes care of her mental health. “Certainly now that my mental health is better, the treatment toward my body has been a lot better. That's the one thing that I've noticed that has been so good and so amazing. I'm not saying, ‘Hey, self care is just taking a bath or a shower….’ Generally, I kind of just stay clean. And I try to remember everything that I have, like stuff that makes me feel better,” she told Well + Good.
6. Meditation
