Maren Morris Shares Swimsuit Photo of "Peace of Mind"
Maren Morris is getting some much-needed rest and relaxation in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the former country singer shows off her amazing body in a bathing suit while soaking in an indoor pool at Southall Farm & Inn in Tennessee. "Sometimes you only have to travel 30 minutes for some peace of mind," she captioned the series of Instagram snaps. How does the singer approach health and fitness? Celebwell rounded up her top lifestyle habits.
Protein-Rich Diet
Maren focuses her diet around protein. For breakfast she has three egg whites, spinach cooked in olive oil, and wheat toast. For lunch, a salad with protein for lunch. Then, after her shows, she will fuel up with another meal. "When I'm out there, I make it count. I know I'll feel awful if I don't eat right after burning all those calories in the show," she dished to Women's Health. For dinner, she will eat another salad, like skinless chicken over spinach with lemon vinaigrette.
HIIT Workouts
Maren is a fan of high intensity training. She works out with Nashville-based trainer Erin Oprea. Sometimes she even uses Erin's Pretty Little Muscles app at home. Her workouts usually involve jump roping followed by bodyweight resistance strength training, doing exercises like front and side planks, pushups, squats, lunges, and a combo of the latter two. "Squat lunges are the worst," she said. "They're so hard because that's the area I need it most—my thighs and butt." She then moves to the BOSU ball and does crunches and core work, followed by weight lifting with free weights.
Tennis
Maren also loves some recreational sports. "She has been playing tennis," Opera told E News. "I encourage clients to do their cardio outside of me. Sports are always the best way because when you're chasing a ball, you're not thinking about cardio." In her latest post, the singer shows her love of the sport by attending the US Open.
Books
Maren often shares photos of the books she is reading. How is reading great for your health? 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.
Therapy
"I do check-ins all the time [with] therapy, which I've done for years," Maren told People. "Sometimes it's just someone really close to you saying, 'Are you OK?' It's so simple, but it kind of snaps you out of whatever fog you're in that you think is normal, but isn't."
