Berry shared some of her favorite ways to care for her mental health with InStyle. “I've also found that taking care of my mental health has been crucial during these odd times. I just launched my Journal on Joy at rē·spin which is part of my bedtime routine. It is a space to record memories that make you smile and helps me focus on positivity and gratitude. Also reading self-help books on ways to stay grounded and centered during this time has been widely helpful and inspirational.”
5. She Works Her Abs
Berry has amazing abs, and she makes sure to take care of them. She shared her secrets in the caption of this Instagram video. “Happy #FitnessFriday! For this week’s takeover on @womenshealthmag, we talk about how essential a 360 workout is for really letting those abs POP! As an extra lil sum sum, I also wanted to share with you this amazing moment on set with my @respin #WaistSlimmer. A trainer or sweat band (when used PROPERLY as a workout tool - it’s not a corset y’all!) can make ALL the difference in your six pack journey.”
