But in the photo she took herself, she looks happy. How does she stay healthy?

1. She Prioritizes Self Care

Cabello prioritizes her self-care habits and routine. She says that she gives her body what it wants each day, and that this has helped with her wellbeing. “It is such a sign of self-care and self-love to listen and to respond [to your body]—getting back to that childlike joy, happiness, and expression again,” Cabello says to Vogue. When it comes to self-care, "I think there's a lot of what we might consider common sense things...Physical health, things like exercise, maybe diets, sleep, categories like that. And then maybe more of a psychological end of things. How are you doing things to manage your own emotional wellbeing? Maybe relaxation techniques. Socialization fits in there a little bit. There are a lot of different avenues there. And then spiritual wellbeing. Everybody has a different definition of that. It could be something like an organized religion. It could be somebody's connection with nature. There's a lot of leeway in that. But that's usually how I would kind of even break it up in their practices, the physical, psychological, and then spiritual health," Psychologist Matthew Sacco, PhD, told the Cleveland Clinic.

2. She Takes Risks With Makeup

Cabello has become a fashion and makeup icon. She says to Vogue that makeup is a big part of her wellness routine. Cabello says that she likes to take risks with her makeup, and that it gives her more confidence. “I think having more confidence, being more playful about it, and using it as another way of creative and artistic expression changed my relationship with makeup.”

3. She Uses Fashion As A Tool For Happiness

Cabello tells Vogue that fashion is another big part of her wellness. She says that trying on clothes makes her happy, and she always puts thought into her daily outfits.“For me, within like the first 20 minutes of my day, if I put on something that makes me feel cute, that's instant serotonin.”

4. She Goes To Bed Early

Cabello makes sure to get her beauty sleep each night. One way she does so is by not staying up too late. “Circadian rhythm is a real thing,” she says to Glamour. “I try to not go to sleep after 10:30. When I go to sleep later than midnight, I tend to get worse quality sleep, even if I sleep the same amount.”

5. She Does Things That Make Her Happy

Mental health and wellbeing is extremely important to Cabello. Specifically, her overall happiness. She tells Glamour that she puts her happiness first, and makes sure to do things consistently that make her happy. “It’s important to be on top of not just what’s making you sad or anxious, but also what’s giving you joy,” she says. “I want to be happy and enjoy my life. That’s kind of it.” She is also upfront about body image: "“I reminded myself when it impacted my self esteem that I was thinking the culture’s thoughts and not my own,” she wrote. “A culture who has gotten so used to an image of what a ‘healthy’ woman’s body looks like that is completely not real for a lot of women.”

1. She Believes In Balance

Castro opened up about her wellness philosophy on the talk show Hoy. She says that she believes in living a balanced life. “I take great care of myself. Right now on vacation zero, I took care of myself,” she admitted. “Tomorrow I start (going) to the gym because I ate pasta, crepes, macaroni, everything I wanted to eat; It's a balance, it's being good with you, I try to take care of myself when I'm not on vacation, I'm super strict with the gym and food.”

2. She Focuses On The Positives

Being in the public eye, Castro has to deal with a lot of criticism. However, she said on Hoy that she ignores critics and focuses on the positive side of things. “You have to understand that it's not personal, that's what my career is about sometimes. I have always said, one thing is an opinion and another thing is aggression; I respect opinions and read them, and I try to throw away aggressions.”

3. She is Grateful

On her 25th birthday, Castro went to Disney. “Cheers to 25,” she wrote. (This is roughly translated.) “They have been an adventure and I cannot be more grateful to life for so many beautiful things, so many friends that fill my soul, for the beautiful family I have. For all the good, bad, regular experiences that have made me the person I am today. For the love of my life @pbernotk ❤️ THANK YOU LIFE FOR SO MUCH! Happy, grateful and blessed❤️ THANKS to each of you who have congratulated me by writing here, calls or messages, each of you has a very important place in my life and of course in these 25 years🎂 Ready for 75 more years amen.”

4. She Has Gone Skiing

Dr. Jonathan Finnoff, a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist at the Mayo Clinic Sports Medicine Center says, according to the Mayo Clinic, “to prevent some downhill ski injuries, you should identify any deficits you have in strength, flexibility or balance. Physical conditioning starts with endurance exercises, particularly aerobic, which prevents fatigue. Strength training in your leg muscles helps you maintain control and absorb shock. And balance exercises coordinate your muscles to protect your joints.”

5. Her Partner is Into Fitness, Also

Castro is partners with Pablo Bernot, who is reported to be director of new projects at the Las Mañanitas hotel and restaurant business. He’s also an athlete who competed in a triathalon recently. “I'm not going to deny you I was very nervous, never doubting you,” wrote Castro about him. (This is a rough translation.) “On the contrary I knew how well you were going to do but that sea is quite complicated. When you came out of the water my soul came back (literally) I saw you so confident and so smiling that I could only shout your name and everyone would hear the baton you brought, then you grabbed the bike and left faster than I even thought I had time to take a picture of you. When I saw that you were already in the transition for the last stage (running) I began to feel that my heart was jumping out of seeing how incredible you were doing ❤️ But when I saw you cross the finish line my eyes filled with tears and I couldn't feel more than a lot of pride, respect and admiration for you love, for your discipline, your determination, your desire and above all your COURAGE, This you did requires a lot of courage and preparation. I love you and I'm so proud of you❤️ Congratulations my champion You Escaped From Alcatraz❤️”

1. She Goes to Therapy

In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, Camila discussed how she suffered from anxiety in her teens and early twenties. “It was something I just lived with. I was used to having functioning anxiety that got really bad every half a year. Then I started opening up to friends, and I realized how much suffering and neuroses are normal, and that we’re all bats**t crazy in our own way, but when it keeps you from having healthy relationships and being more often than not in a relatively stable place, that I needed to seek out some therapy. Talking about it really helped me realize, ‘Oh, I think this is making my life harder than it is for other people,’” she said. Now, she gets help via weekly sessions with a therapist. “I love therapy!” she says. “I think pretending is a form of psychological torture and brings the most anxiety. We do that so much in our society and culture. We’re constantly hustling and putting on a smile when we don’t feel good.”

2. She Is Active

Camila’s lifestyle is very busy and she’s constantly on the move, however, she regularly finds time for outdoor activities. One of her go-tos? Hiking and standup paddle boarding. “Nothin to do nowhere to be,” she captioned a recent photo of herself standup paddleboarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio.

3. She Knows When to Take a Break

During the pandemic, Camila moved back to Miami with her family and found time to start riding her bike and cooking. “Obviously, this is a huge luxury, but if I felt like that again, I wouldn’t force myself to do anything and I wouldn’t pretend because who is that for? If I’m not being honest, then I don’t know what I’m bringing to people, you know?”

4. Her Guilty Pleasure? Brit Food

Camila, who counts Ed Sheeran as one of her friends, loves eating British foods. ‘“I love roast beef and a Yorkshire pudding, parsnips and potatoes. I love fish and chips. I love beans on toast,” she told Cosmo.

5. She Works Out

Camila works out with trainer Jenna Willis, who revealed to Shape that the two train together three times a week using minimal equipment doing strength, HIIT, and balance exercises, including complex movements that target the whole body. Camila makes sure to infuse fun into their workout sessions. “We end up getting in an added ab workout because of how much we end up laughing. Somehow she manages to keep me on my toes and turn every cardio move into an incredible-looking dance move.”

6. She Eats Veggies

One of the greatest gifts Camila’s ex Shawn Mendes gave her? A love of veggies. “Shawn has influenced me to be healthier. I was not healthy at all before. I never ate vegetables before. Just like, easy vegetables like cucumbers or cold carrots with cesar. Which I wouldn’t say are hard vegetables,” she told BBC Radio.
