1. She Takes Baths

Eva prioritizes self-care. One of her go-to methods? Soaking in a hot tub. “I mean, self care to me I think is probably the most difficult for women to do because by nature, we are the caretakers of our children, caretakers of the elderly. We’re the CEOs of our family, we’re making the financial decisions, the educational decisions, the healthcare decisions, we’re the human taxi. It is hard to step back and do that,” she told The Cut In Her Shoes podcast. “I also think, for me, self-care isn’t a trip to Cabo… it doesn’t have to be huge, for me, I love taking a bubble bath. Man, if you want to get me a good gift, get me a bath bomb because I won’t buy them for myself. I don’t buy them for myself, so when somebody gives me a bath bomb, I’m like… because to me, that’s my time by myself in the tub.”

Eva also makes sure to get her zen on. “I love that meditation… I meditate every day,” she told The Cut. “How you talk to yourself is a form of self-care as well.”

3. She Works Out Daily and Does Strength Training

“I work out every day as my mental health,” Eva told The Cut. “People are like, “You’re always working out,” and they think it’s vanity, but that’s my hour where I can really get my endorphins pumping and prepare me for the day. It’s my mental health hour.” She added to Women’s Health that she does strength training with a personal trainer—either Julia Brown of Thrive With Julia or Grant Roberts of Granite Gym. “I do very heavy weights,” she said. “I feel like my body changes the most when I do that—I wear a heart rate monitor, and I can see my heart rate spike from just doing a heavy bicep curl.” "Strength training is critical to maintaining muscle mass, which helps not only improve overall fitness, but also maintain a healthy weight," says certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor Emperatriz Chacon. "Among the many benefits that strength training brings us are the ability to maintain a correct posture, and it helps improve and enhance the cardiovascular system. Additionally, it helps us prevent injuries (for example, by having a stronger musculature, if we fall or receive an impact, there will be a lower risk of the bones receiving such an impact), and it helps stabilize the bones. Most important of all, it helps us prevent the loss of muscle mass from the age of 40."

“I think a lot of times people think self care is I got to go to the spa, I have to get a massage, it could be many things,” Eva told The Cut. “It could be sit down and take a deep breath, journal, sit down and name five things you’re grateful for today. I do those things every day and I feel like it just centers me.”

5. She Jumps on a Trampoline

Eva is a big fan of her Jumpsport trampoline. “Ironically, bouncing on this trampoline is low impact, so you get a sweaty workout without all the pounding on your knees,” she told Women’s Health, revealing that she bounces for 30 to 45 minutes her day. “Plus, it’s so good for lymphatic drainage. She added: “It makes me present. You really have to focus on the routine and memorize the movements. They switch sides a lot, which can throw you off, so you have to be on top of it. I love that.”

6. She Intermittent Fasts

Eva does intermittent fasting, eating within an eight-hour window each day, usually 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. “Breakfast is black coffee,” she told Women’s Health. Afterwards, she works out. “Then I make breakfast for my family.” For lunch she will pair a protein—steak, fish, or chicken—with vegetables, and for dinner, a similar meal or a hearty soup, like Italian wedding or tortilla. “I’ve been dabbling with more plant-based ingredients,” she added. “I grew up on a ranch where we ate what was on the land—when it was squash season, we ate squash for three months. It gave me such an appreciation for where food comes from: It comes from the ground. Beans are a big source of protein for us. I love making portobello tacos and jackfruit tacos, and cauliflower fried rice.” She also avoids sugar. “Olives, pretzels, popcorn, potato chips—that’s my jam,” she said. “I don’t like sweets or chocolate, and people hate me for it. Bread too—I hate bread. I’m never tempted by the bread basket.”

7. She Tracks Her Sleep

Eva wears an Oura Ring to track her sleep, which she uses as motivation to get enough z’s. “My friends and I send each other scores,” she says. “I’ll be like, ‘I got a 94, top that!’” "If you've resolved to get more exercise, lose weight, or get more sleep, then a host of wearable electronic devices and apps are available to help you succeed. They will gently prod you to work toward your goal, encourage you along the way, and praise you when you get there. The gadgets record your activity, while the apps interpret the results and send you frequent messages to let you know how well you're progressing." says Harvard Health.

Eva Longoria isn't just a former Desperate Housewives star; she's an entrepreneurial force. And now she's headed to the Cannes Film Festival. "That was a long day of travel, but I haven't been in Cannes in so many years and I'm excited to be back," she said on social media, where she also just posted a photo of her in a bathing suit: "The calm before the storm."

She has her go-to breakfasts that start the day off right. "I usually have egg whites and beans,” she said. “For lunch and dinner, Longoria says she usually plans a gourmet meal. "I've been really bringing it during COVID. I've been making everything from fish tacos to shepherd's pie to curry. No day is the same," she said about meals during the pandemic. “If you have heart disease or high cholesterol, be cautious about the number of egg yolks you consume, and take into account all the other forms of saturated fat (red meat, beef, pork, veal and lamb, poultry skin, whole-milk dairy or full-fat cheese) in your diet,” preventive cardiology dietitian Julia Zumpano, RD, LD tells the Cleveland Clinic. “Setting a limit of four egg yolks per week is recommended.”

2. After Trying It All, She Says Moderation is Key

She tried different diets to see what works for her. "I'd do a cleanse. I'd try keto. I'd try no sugar," she said. "I tried. I wanted to do it for the environment, but I just love cheese so much!," she mentioned about her attempt to go vegan. "Life is about moderation, and life is long. One of the greatest ways for me is to enjoy food."

3. She Mixes Up Her Exercise Routine

She mixes up her exercise routine to keep things entertaining. "I do a lot. I'm a runner, I do yoga, I do SoulCycle and I'm just constantly mixing it up," she said. "My workouts now are more weight training. Very serious weight training." Eva works hard with her trainer, Grant Roberts.

4. Wine Is Her Guilty Pleasure

When she was asked about her favorite food, Eva said "Does wine count?" Even though she’s definitely a fan of the vino, she’s obsessed with tacos, too, when it comes to her actual favorite food. “There's literally 100 different versions of tacos." They’re delicious and it keeps her from getting bored.

5. She’s Created A Wellness Shot

Eva’s wellness shot that she swears by consists of an orange, ginger, lemon, honey, lime, turmeric, and cayenne. "Take the skin off all ingredients," she says. Then she adds everything except for the cayenne to a blender, blend, strain, pour, and sprinkle with cayenne. "Should I add tequila? It's probably not a wellness shot if we add tequila," Longoria said.

Eva Longoria is showing off her forever young figure in a swimsuit. In one of her latest social media posts the actress and director shows off her incredible body in a bathing suit, posing on the beach with her pals. “Beach day,” she captioned the Instagram Stories photo. How does the actress manage to look as good at 48 as she did at 28? In a recent interview, she revealed all of her secrets to longevity.

1. She Takes “Advantage” of Anti-Aging “Tecnology”

In a recent interview with Reader’s Digest’s The Healthy, Eva was asked about the secret to her longevity. “Nobody is going to beat aging. I’m not doing any anti-aging things. But as you go along life, the technology has been so amazing in the last decade in regards to skincare, and healthcare, and just taking care of your bodies, that why not take advantage of that technology? A lot of women want to feel good in their skin. And so what happened with me was I had Santi, and I gave myself a lot of time to be grateful to my body for producing a human being. So I wasn’t rushing to get back to the way I was before, or How fast is she going to bounce back? and all that. So he was almost a year old by the time I go, ‘OK, let me get back into my workout routine.’ And then it was years later after I was working out regularly eating well, sleeping well, doing everything right, that I finally go, ‘Oh, I still have this saggy skin that I want to tighten up. How do you do that?’ And I was talking to a mommy friend of mine and she was like, ‘Oh honey, you should do Morpheus8.’ And I was like, ‘What? What is that?’ And she said, ‘Oh, it’s this radio frequency that tightens the stomach, or face, or arms, or whatever, and it tightens the skin, and it tells your stomach to wake up and start making collagen again.’ And I was like, ‘Oh wow.’”

2. She Works Out Almost Every Day for Her “Mental Health”

Eva maintains that exercise is not just for her physical health. “I work out five, six times a week, but my workouts are my mental health hour. I really need that energy and endorphins in the morning to really function throughout the day. So I love that it obviously has great side effects of being in shape, but for me it really clears my mind and I’m a better mom, and I’m a better businesswoman, and I’m a better wife because I get those endorphins first thing in the morning,” she told The Healthy.

3. She Loves Her Trampoline Workouts

“So I started coming out of postpartum with bouncing. I love my trampoline workouts because it’s high-intensity but low-impact, and I don’t have the best knees. And I was like, “I can’t run anymore. What could I do that gets that sweat but isn’t so impactful on my body?” Bouncing on the trampoline was amazing. And it’s also great for your mind. It’s a lot of mental gymnastics as well with sequencing, and memorization, and it’s like a dance routine, and so it’s creative. I mean, it was really servicing everything I was looking for at the time,” she told The Healthy.

4. She Also Lifts Weights

Eva uses weight training as a “supplement” to her jumping. “I do a lot of weight training with my trainer,” she said.

5. She Meditates

Eva maintains that “meditating” is another crucial health habit. “It’s just lifesaving, and I only do it five minutes a day. It’s not like I do an hour of meditation. No, sometimes I do it two minutes … but I do it,” she told The Healthy. “It grounds you in your day. I do all these guided meditations.”
