Golf is the main thing that keeps Cartwright in shape. And it has a lot of benefits. Better Health says, “Golf can be good for your health and your heart. Walking an average course for a round of golf can be between five to seven kilometres. If you walk 18 holes three to five times a week, you’ll get an optimal amount of endurance exercise for your heart. If you pull your clubs or carry them, you’ll burn even more calories each round and benefit even more.”

2. She Does Yoga

Cartwright captioned it, “💜 Living with #epilepsy can be hard, but sharing how you’re feeling with your friends, family, and doctors can make a big difference.

4. She Paints

Cartwright is very artistic. One thing she likes to do is paint. She shared this post on Instagram of herself with one of her paintings. Cartwright captioned the post, "Because I worked my 🍑 off on this painting and it’s a perfect time to show it off.” Painting has a lot of benefits. “Anything that engages your creative mind — the ability to make connections between unrelated things and imagine new ways to communicate — is good for you," says Girija Kaimal, a professor at Drexel University and a researcher in art therapy, tells NPR.

5. She Has A Dog

In her Instagram post, Cartwright shared two videos of her dog playing outside. According to Harvard Health, having a dog has a lot of benefits. “Ongoing research is showing that the health benefits of owning a dog are undeniable. Dog owners have lower blood pressure and healthier cholesterol levels, and a lower risk of heart disease, than non-owners. There are also many psychological benefits to having a pooch around. Dog owners are less prone to bouts of loneliness, anxiety, and depression. Simply petting your dog can make you feel less stressed.”
