Casimere Jollette in Two-Piece Workout Gear is "Gorgeous"
Casimere Jollette is dancing in New York – in her two-piece workout gear. In a new social media post the dancer shows off her fantastic physique in an Alo workout set, driving her followers wild. "Literally a DREAM," one of them commented. "Gorgeous," added another. How does she approach diet, fitness, and self-care? Here is everything you need to know about her lifestyle habits.
Sleeping
Casimere prioritizes getting her rest. "I am a heavy sleeper and can fall asleep at any given moment. So I don't necessarily have to set myself a bedtime. I fall asleep at a decent time on my own at about midnight or so," she told Vogue. What are the health benefits of sleep? According to the Sleep Foundation, getting enough z's is a mood booster, promotes heart health, regulates blood sugar, improves mental function, restores your immune system, helps relieve stress, and aids in weight loss.
Baths
How does Casimere unwind at the end of a long day? "I can typically fall asleep very easily, but on nights when I am having trouble, a nice hot Epsom salt bath with lavender essential oil relaxes me and puts me right to sleep," she says. How can baths do your body and mind good? They have been linked to better sleep and even found helpful to minimize anxiety and depression. One recent study even found that they may even boast cardiovascular benefits.
Coffee
What's the first thing she does upon waking? "C.O.F.F.E.E. I am and have always been addicted. I cannot start my morning without a cup of hot coffee. It not only wakes me up but having that routine and something to look forward to upon waking is just great," she says. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. "It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function," they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.
Eating Clean
Casimere's diet is clean and healthy. She loves fruit smoothies, which she makes with flax seed, protein and glutamine powder. She tries to eat organic, gluten free, and paleo, she told Energetiks.
Meditation
How does she cope with auditions and nerves? "I never get nervous. I meditate before the audition and then treat it as a job interview," she says. "When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress," says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:
- Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
- Building skills to manage your stress
- Increasing self-awareness
- Focusing on the present
- Reducing negative emotions
- Increasing imagination and creativity
- Increasing patience and tolerance
- Lowering resting heart rate
- Lowering resting blood pressure
- Improving sleep quality
Dancing
Dance is Casimere's main form of fitness. "I started dancing when I was two years old so I honestly don't ever remember a time without dance in my life. It was my passion ever since I was little, and my goal was to become a professional dancer," she told Glitter Magazine. "It's taught me to believe in myself and to fight for the things I love. It's also given me my competitive edge to help me survive in this industry. It's a rough world out there."
