Kerry Ingram is heating up Disney in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the Game of Thrones star shows off her amazing body in a bathing suit while enjoying the theme park. “Have a Disney dump,” the 24-year-old actress captioned the series of Instagram photos and videos. “Beauty,” commented one. “Cutie,” added another. How does the young star, who played Shireen Baratheon on the hit HBO show, approach health and wellness? Celebwell rounded up her top health habits.
1. She Reads
Kerry is a reader. Here she is lounging in bed reading a book. One Harvard study published in Social Science & Medicine found that people who read books regularly had a 20% lower risk of dying over the next 12 years compared with people who weren't readers or who read periodicals.
2. She Hikes
Kerry loves to hike – at the beach and in the mountains. Here she is hiking in her bathing suit. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:
- Building stronger muscles and bones
- Improving your sense of balance
- Improving your heart health
- Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems
3. She Hydrates
Kerry understands the importance of hydration. “Unfortunately for Kez, the drink is tap water. Feelin cute tho,” she captioned this Instagram post. According to the Mayo Clinic, hydration is important for a variety of reasons. Water helps get rid of waste through urination, perspiration, and bowel movements, keeps your temperature normal, lubricates and cushions joints, and helps protect sensitive tissues.
4. She Walks Her Dog
Kerry, the proud dog mom of a pug, spends a lot of time taking her pooch for long walks. Going for a daily walk can be a game changer in terms of exercise, especially at a brisk speed. One study published in JAMA Internal Medicine found that walking at a brisk pace for about 30 minutes a day led to a reduced risk of heart disease, cancer, dementia and death, compared with walking a similar number of steps but at a slower pace.
5. She Rides Horses
Kerry also has a horse, which she regularly rides when she is home. According to the American Heart Association, riding horses is great for your health. Not only does it boost cardiovascular health, but builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.
