Happy Weight Gain
Ratajkowski's stress manifests itself in weight loss, she says. "When I'm really unwell, I lose so much weight," she says. "For me, [gaining weight] is a huge game-changer, and it's how I know I'm happy. I think trauma lives in the body. That's my experience."
Group Workout Classes
When it comes to working out, Ratajkowski thrives in a class environment. "I'm one of those people who, if I go to the gym by myself, there's a 50/50 chance of me actually working out and really pushing myself," she says. "So the class environment works really, really well for me."
Lots of Iron
Ratajkowski prioritizes iron in her diet. "I crave iron so I am definitely not the kind of person who you will find eating a salad," she says. "I like to keep it really balanced to give my body energy and also be healthy. I cook a lot, so that really helps: You know how much salt and sugar and all of that kind of stuff you are putting in your body."
Mindful of Phone Time
Ratajkowski makes sure to keep her phone out of the bedroom for less stress and anxiety and better sleep. "If you can, try putting your phone on 'do not disturb' mode or silent when you go to bed," says SCL Health. "Because even though you may not be on it, the text alerts, game notifications or email buzzes can interrupt your deep sleep."
Black Coffee
Ratajkowski loves black coffee to kick start her day. Drinking coffee black is a great way to get a caffeine boost while keeping calories and sugar at a minimum. "For women, drinking at least one cup of coffee a day is associated with lowered stroke risk, which is the fourth leading cause of death in women,' says Johns Hopkins Medicine.
