Emily gets a great workout in just by showing up to work every day. “I do get a workout on the show, not just from running from zombies, but just being ready to perform all day burns a lot of calories,” she told Refiney29.

Emily stars the day with a mini workout. “I also get up early every day and have a little 20-minute routine of stretches and yoga and lunges and abs that I do no matter what. I like feeling strong. Also, it wakes me up in the morning," she told Refiney29.

3. She Protects Her Skin

Emily is big on skin protection. "I use a sunscreen with zinc. It’s really thick — I don’t get a sunburn or tan if I use that stuff. The tan you see on the show is fake," she told the publication

4. She Hikes

Emily also enjoys hiking. “Things are looking up,” she captioned this photo from one of her hikes. “Hiking is one of the best ways to get exercise. No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between,” says the National Parks Service. Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems. It also offers many mental health benefits, according to a Stanford University study.

5. She Prioritizes Self-Care

During her down time, Emily focuses on recharging. “I would love to go on a vacation, but no place fancy. I kind of want one week in NYC, a stay-cation with no appointments, to see all the shows I've been missing and to see all my friends. And then I want one week in some isolated place with a good view, where I can go on walks, drink coffee, and just write and sleep and be by myself. Like, completely by myself. I like things about social media, and I'm obsessed with Instagram, but I could really use a whole week off to hear my thoughts," she told Refinery29.

1. She Has An Inside-Out Approach to Health

In a recent interview with Vogue, Elle revealed that she approaches health from the inside out. “My beauty routine, which is really a wellness routine disguised as a beauty routine, because I truly believe that when you're well within, it shows on your skin,” she said. In the morning she takes a “little swig” of an ION Biome, which she claims is important because “it supports your gut,” prepping it for other vitamins and supplements.

2. Hot Water and Lemon Is Her Morning Elixir

“The first thing I have is hot water and lemon when I wake up, then my Super Elixir greens and a matcha tea. Sometimes I have cap-full of apple cider vinegar in water if I’m feeling like I’m inflamed,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

3. She Drinks a Lot of Water

Elle also prioritizes hydration. “I drink three litres of water a day,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

4. She Uses a Crystal Water Bottle

Elle uses a special water bottle for her H2O, which supposedly infuses positive energy into it. “I'm gonna fill up my bottle with some water,” she explained in her Vogue video. “I use a crystal bottle.” The concept behind the expensive water bottles is that positive energy is infused into them.

5. She Practices Lymphatic Drainage

“So for me, circulation is key,” Elle revealed to Vogue. “Lymphatic drainage is really, really important. You've got to move those toxins out of your body, it will show on your skin, it will show in the way you feel,” she says. One way she does it? With a dry body brush.

6. She Prioritizes Wellness

“I believe in maintenance, I’m not a big binge and purge person,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I think it’s really important to maintain wellness year-round. Not because it looks good but it actually feels good – which is really important when you’re running a business and you’ve got kids and a full life. It’s easy – I just make good choices and I enjoy the choices that I make.”

7. Her Diet Is Alkaline and Plant-Based

“I really enjoy a plant-based diet, I love vegetables,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “If I’m really in my groove, I love a raw, plant-based diet,” she added to New Beauty. “That’s how I feel best. I eat grains, nuts, seeds, beans, vegetables, almond milk, hemp milk, chia seeds. I make my own granola in a dehydrator. Avocado, salads, juicing—you know, beautiful, whole, natural foods. As far as animal products are concerned, I’ll have a poached egg every now and then, some Parmesan cheese and goat cheese, but they’re not staples of my diet.”

8. She Gives Up Wheat and Sugar for Summer

Elle makes dietary sacrifices right before swimsuit season. “Coming up for summer what I try to cut out is wheat and sugar. If you love bread and butter, that would be what I’d give up for the summer. For me it’s a ‘fine tune’ more than anything else,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.

9. She Curbed Her Craving for Sugar with Supplements

Elle claims that taking Super Elixir green supplements keeps her sugar cravings away. “Since I’ve been taking the Super Elixir I don’t crave sugar anymore and so when I have cheap sugar now I just don’t like the taste,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “Sugar is addictive but breaking that addiction only takes about three days. Do a week of taking the Super Elixir greens and then try to give up sugar, it’s usually pretty successful.”

10. Take a Hot Shower or Steam Nightly

Another way Elle practices lymphatic drainage is via steam or a hot shower. “I have a steam most nights, and while I'm in the steam, while my body is sweating, I'll put oil on it and then I'll use the body Gua Sha, the same way as I use the lymphatic drainage brush,” she told Vogue.

11. As You Age, Change Your Routine

Elle emphasizes the importance of evolving your routine as you age. “When I turned 50, I started to notice some new changes in my body. I was sugar addicted, sleep deprived, adrenally stressed, and it showed, you know, it showed on my skin, it showed in my body, and I was doing the same things I've been doing since I was 20, and they just weren't working anymore,” she told Vogue. “I changed my lifestyle and within a few months, people started to say to me, God, you look amazing, and what are you doing, and I realized there were so many women that must've been struggling like I was and I wanted to share it with other people, so that is the birth of WelleCo.”

12. Gain Weight As You Age

“I like to be a little bit more rosy and round, because I think at my age, it's just you know, it's more appealing to look less gaunt, so I've noticed that I've put on weight as I've gotten older and that old adage,” she explained. “You have to choose between your a** and your face is kind of true [laughs] because if I'm too thin, it really shows in my face, so I keep it round and rosy and fresh.”

13. She Enjoys Outdoor Fitness

Elle isn’t a big fan of formal exercise. “I do sports like water skiing, running, cycling, swimming laps, snow skiing if it’s winter, walking the dogs – I just love to be outdoors,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “If I’m lucky enough to be by the sea, I think walking in seawater is one of the best things I can do for my body. It tones the legs and the waist, it’s great for minerals, and if you have any water retention, it’s a great diuretic. I walk in about thigh-deep or knee-deep water for 40 minutes to an hour,” she added to New Beauty.

Emily Rose Lansley is a facialist, nail expert, and tanning expert. She’s known for her incredible skin. In an Instagram video, she shared some of the habits she has that keep her skin looking amazing. In the video, Lansley is seen in a black workout bra and bike shorts, her impressive abs on display. She captioned the post, “My top tips for glowing skin.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Emily Rose Lansley stays in shape and the photos that prove they work.

1. She Stays Hydrated

In her Instagram post, Lansley revealed that she makes sure to stay hydrated in order to keep her skin healthy. “Stay hydrated. Add electrolytes to your water. Hydration is vital for improved skin health. My favourites are @ancientandbrave and @rejuvenateduk.” Harvard Health states, “Drinking enough water each day is crucial for many reasons: to regulate body temperature, keep joints lubricated, prevent infections, deliver nutrients to cells, and keep organs functioning properly. Being well-hydrated also improves sleep quality, cognition, and mood.”

2. She Works Out Regularly

In her Instagram post, Lansley revealed that she works out on a regular basis. “Daily movement. Get your lymphatic system moving! I am officially addicted to @tenhealthfitness.” The Mayo Clinic states, “Regular trips to the gym are great, but don't worry if you can't find a large chunk of time to exercise every day. Any amount of activity is better than none. To gain the benefits of exercise, just get more active throughout your day. For example, take the stairs instead of the elevator or rev up your household chores. Consistency is key.”

3. She Eats Fruit

Lansley shares some of her favorite foods in an Instagram story highlight, “Skin food.” In a lot of the photos, she’s seen eating fruit. Harvard Health reports, “A diet rich in vegetables and fruits can lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke, prevent some types of cancer, lower risk of eye and digestive problems, and have a positive effect upon blood sugar, which can help keep appetite in check. Eating non-starchy vegetables and fruits like apples, pears, and green leafy vegetables may even promote weight loss. Their low glycemic loads prevent blood sugar spikes that can increase hunger.”

4. She Uses Eye Masks

Eye masks. Reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and other premature signs of aging. I keep mine in the fridge and like to use first thing in the morning to reduce puffiness but they’re also a great way to help you unwind and relax in the evening!

5. She Uses A Sauna

Lansley spends a lot of time in saunas, and they help with her skin. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post, “I have been in the sauna everyday the past few days and I have slept like a baby every night and my skin is glowing. Beauty Tip: Sauna + A cold shower + invigorating body scrub, = silky, glowing skin.” The Mayo Clinic states that saunas have other benefits. “Emerging evidence suggests that beyond its use for pleasure, sauna bathing may be linked to several health benefits, which include reduction in the risk of vascular diseases such as high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, and neurocognitive diseases; nonvascular conditions such as pulmonary diseases; mortality; as well as amelioration of conditions such as arthritis, headache, and flu.”
