Green Tea All Day
Miller says she is addicted to green tea and drinks six cups throughout the day. "Green tea contains a number of natural stimulants, including caffeine, which although not as high as coffee, may still help maintain alertness and focus," says registered nutritionist Jo Lewin. "In addition to this, green tea is a source of the amino acid L-theanine, which has a relaxing effect; it does this by increasing mood-enhancing brain chemicals including GABA, dopamine and serotonin. The beneficial polyphenols of green tea may also help slow the effects of aging on the brain."
Animal Rights Activist
Miller is passionate about animal rights and fighting cruelty to animals. Experts say activism and volunteering are not only helpful for the people or animals who need it, but offer many health benefits for the person giving their time and effort. "When we do good deeds we're rewarded by a dopamine pulse," says bioethicist Stephen G. Post, co-author of Why Good Things Happen to Good People. "Giving a donation or volunteering in a food bank tweaks the same source of pleasure that lights up when we eat or have sex. It's clear that helping others, even at low thresholds of several hours of volunteerism a week, creates mood elevation."
She's a Yogi
Miller enjoys regular yoga sessions, a very effective way of managing stress. "By linking movement (poses) and slow, even breaths, yoga can cause the body to respond with relaxation," says Johanna Goldfarb, MD. "This response has been called the 'Relaxation Response,' a reflex first described in the West by Dr. Herbert Benson in the mid-1970s. It is clearly associated with physical benefits, including a calming of the body and mind — something we all could use right now."
She Boxes
Miller enjoys boxing-based workouts. "Boxing requires the full body to move. From staying on your toes to engaging the core muscles or throwing a jab or a cross, there's a lot to think about, which makes it great for training both the mind and body," says trainer Anthony Char. "It's also a great calorie burner and can often burn more calories than cardio workouts such as running (opens in new tab). It's a fun alternative to traditional cardio workouts like HIIT or swimming."
Jogging On the Beach
Miller loves to go running on the sand. "By putting in mileage on the sand, you'll put less stress on your weight-bearing joints, such as your hips, knees, and ankles, which can help decrease the risk of impact-associated injuries like stress fractures," says Erika Lee Sperl, a kinesiologist and high-performance sport consultant. "Running, especially on the road or a treadmill, is a very uni-planar, repetitive exercise, which can lead to muscular imbalances. Often the common weakest links for runners are the glutes, hamstrings, hips, and ankles. By running on sand and challenging your stability, you'll start to build strength in these areas, which can carry over to performance benefits on the road."
