Exercise is a big part of Balvinder’s life. “I have always liked to keep fit,” she told Just Say It How It Is. “I started doing Aerobics at the age of about 14? And just kept going. It is important to me that I work out. Sometimes you just need to get out of your own head and into your body. I always try to make time for something physical, even if that is just going for a walk.”

2. She Does Yoga

In addition to “long walks” and working out in a gym, Balvinder also is a fan of “doing yoga,” she told Just Say It How It Is. According to the American Osteopathic Association, there are more than 100 different types, or schools, of yoga. Most practices include breathing exercises, meditation, and assuming postures (sometimes called asana or poses) that stretch and flex various muscle groups.“The relaxation techniques incorporated in yoga can lessen chronic pain, such as lower back pain, arthritis, headaches and carpal tunnel syndrome,” Natalie Nevins, DO, a board-certified osteopathic family physician and certified Kundalini Yoga instructor in Hollywood, California, explained to them. “Yoga can also lower blood pressure and reduce insomnia.”

Other physical benefits of yoga include:

• increased flexibility
• increased muscle strength and tone
• improved respiration, energy and vitality
• maintaining a balanced metabolism
• weight reduction
• cardio and circulatory health
• improved athletic performance
• protection from injury

Balvinder also puts a creative spin on her workouts with the help of hula hoops. “Hula Squatting is brilliant, isn’t it?! I created that at home one day and I really enjoyed it. I am also playing around with Hula Zumba and have choreographed a few routines,” she told the same publication.

4. She Drinks A LOT of Coffee

Navinder is a big fan of coffee, regularly sharing posts about her love of the caffeinated beverage on Instagram. Science continues to prove that drinking coffee is great for your health. In fact, a new 2022 study published in European Journal of Preventive Cardiology found that drinking two to three cups a day of most types of coffee – especially a mild to moderate intake of ground, instant, and decaffeinated coffee – may protect you from cardiovascular disease and an early death. Researchers found “significant reductions” in the risk for coronary heart disease, congestive heart failure and stroke for all three types of coffee. But, only ground and instant coffee with caffeine decreased risk for arrhythmia, or irregular heartbeat.

5. She Takes Time for Self-Care

Balvinder takes time to relax. “I love gardening and reading (not at the same time) as I find them both very soothing. I spend a lot of my time travelling up and down the country for work, and I love that too. Train journeys can be wonderful with a good book, or your favourite music to accompany you. Oh, and crosswords especially on a train journey this is not complete without doing the Metro’s crossword,” she told Just Say It How It Is.

2. She Loves Fruit

Bajwa makes sure that she eats enough fruit. She revealed her favorites in her PinkVilla interview. “I add lots of fruits in my second meal of the day,” she says. “I really like pineapple.

3. She Loves Salads

Bajwa loves salads for lunch. She revealed her favorite recipe to PinkVilla. “If you see the plate that I have, it’s so huge,” she says. “I have lettuce, I have leaves, I have baby spinach in that. Carrot is a must in my salad, and cucumber. And again, I add some roasted flaxseed in that. And also, I love avocados.”

4. She’s Spiritual

Bajwa is working on adding more spirituality to her life. She shared this post on Instagram highlighting her goals. Bajwa shared a quote from Cory Asbury saying, “I want to reach for God the way I reach for my phone. When I’m bored. When I’m uncomfortable. When I need answers or entertainment. When I’m lonely and need someone to talk to.”

5. She Challenges Herself

Bajwa likes to push herself, especially when it comes to acting. While promoting her role in the film Sadar Ji 2, Bajwa opened up about why she wanted to star in it and her process to Simply Bhangra. “I like to be in different roles,” she says. “I like variations.

“Sometimes a little bit of sunshine is the best medicine. A walk in the park or a bike ride probably puts you in a good mood, and a moderate amount of sun is also good for your physical health. While you’re outside soaking up rays, your body is busy making vitamin D. That’s good news, because this hormone that’s boosted by exposure to sunlight plays an important role in women’s health,” says Johns Hopkins.

5. She Loves the Beach

“Beaches provide many recreational opportunities for millions of people. Boating, fishing, swimming, walking, beachcombing, bird-watching, playing and sunbathing are among the common activities beachgoers enjoy. Beaches provide protection to residents living near the ocean by acting as a buffer against the high winds and waves of powerful storms or rough seas,” says the EPA.

1. She Has Learned to Love Herself

“HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY ✨ Today is a day where we can celebrate us. I have so many women in my life who inspire me every day and I wanted to give a little something today that can hopefully inspire one of you. Loving our imperfections can be difficult, but when you learn to embrace them and realise that our imperfections don’t define us, they are just a part of us alongside everything else that creates you as a person. None of us are the same, and that’s a special thing. We are one of a kind 🤍 This picture shows me at my most vulnerable… but I’m learning to love myself, imperfections and all. And so should you,” she wrote once.

2. She Was Once “Unhealthily Skinny”

"I went from a size 10 to a six, and it’s the smallest I’ve ever been as a young adult. Because of my height, this made me look unhealthily skinny, of which I was (not eating barely anything, feeling ill all the time, tired, dizzy) and I remember looking at myself, I’d lost my boobs and my bum and those curves I once had and I missed them,” she wrote on Instagram. "The point of this [is], since coming out of Love Island, I found my love for food again and yes I’m getting back to my usual size."

3. She Likes a Nice Bath

“Drowning my sorrows in the bath because my Met Gala invite got lost 💔…,” she captioned one recent photo. Consider adding Epsom salt. “Pour about 300 grams (1.25 cups) of Epsom salt into a clean bathtub as it fills with hot water. (Avoid using Epsom salt in a tub with jets, a hot tub or a whirlpool bath unless the manufacturer says it’s OK.),” says the Cleveland Clinic.

"At the moment the make-up I use does change fairly often, not necessarily my staples like concealer and foundation, but I do switch up the bronzers, blushers and mascara that I use,” she has said. Her icon? "Meghan Markle, her skin is absolutely flawless – her make-up always looks lovely as her make-up always looks lovely and natural."

5. She Has Had Acne

“I suffered from acne about a year and a half ago and then I started to work with a skin aesthetician, who helped me to find my skincare routine and helped me to start dealing with the breakouts. Now that my acne has gone, we are on more of a journey to find the right products; doing treatments like microneedling once a month to deal with the scarring. I am so happy with the outcome because the difference from what it was to now is just incredible. I genuinely used to think there was never going to be a time when I could get rid of the acne and I think when you are suffering you think it’s going to be with you forever. Don’t get me wrong, it isn’t an overnight process – it took me a year and a half to be acne free, but through a good skincare routine and using the right products it can be combated. My skin aesthetician advised me that the products you use to treat acne don’t start working for 4-6 months, so it took six months before I started to see a difference. The secret to good skin is also about good lifestyle, it’s all about looking after the inside to make your skin glow,” she told Hello.

1. Ghee For Cooking and Skincare

Maheshwari loves ghee, both as an ingredient and for skincare. “Some people who avoid dairy for digestive reasons may tolerate ghee better than butter,” says registered dietitian Candace O’Neill. “But in general, they should be fine with butter as well because the amounts of lactose and casein are so small. If you have a casein allergy, you should definitely avoid consuming both in case of cross-contamination.”

2. She Loves Tea

Maheshwari loves traditional black chai (tea), which research shows is beneficial for aiding fat loss. “Our findings suggest that black tea, through a specific mechanism through the gut microbiome, may also contribute to good health and weight loss in humans,” says Susanne Henning, PhD. “The results suggest that both green and black teas are prebiotics, substances that induce the growth of good microorganisms that contribute to a person’s well-being.”

3. Baths For Self-Care

Maheshwari loves long baths for self care. “Wash away your troubles in a bath full of bubbles,” she captioned an Instagram post. Baths are known to be good destressors. “Baths also create a good environment for meditation, thought and escape from everyday stressors,” says Amy Zack, MD. “Promoting relaxation helps you let go of things that can keep you awake as you try to wind down.”

4. Protein Shakes

Maheshwari enjoys protein shakes for nutrition on the go. “Eating enough protein is not just for athletes or would-be Schwarzenegger types,” says Emily Gelsomin, MLA, RD, LDN. “It is necessary for a healthy immune system and required for organs like your heart, brain, and skin to function properly. The nutrient is also touted for its ability to help control appetite and enhance muscle growth.”

5. Sunscreen Every Day

Maheshwari is religious about protecting her skin from the sun. “For day-to-day use, pick a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30,” says Anna Lien-Lun Chien, MD. “If you spend time outdoors, choose a product with SPF 60 or greater. In reality, most people do not use as much sunscreen as they should, and this higher SPF helps compensate for the reduced application.”
