1. Kickboxing

Demir is a big fan of kickboxing workouts. Kickboxing is a great cardio exercise which also builds strength and helps relieve stress. "I recommend martial arts to those who want to stay healthy and lose weight," she says.

2. Intermittent Fasting

Demir practices intermittent fasting, eating nothing after 5pm. “When you go hours without eating, your body eventually runs out of stored sugar to use,” says UCLA Health. “Instead, it begins to burn fat to produce energy.”

3. Prioritizing Her Happiness

Demir is determined never to give up her independence. “I have no dreams of marriage,” she says. “All my friends got married, some of them are very happy, but I am also very happy. I can't always stay in the same house with a man. Living together is no different than marriage. One signature is missing. In between, I just want to be alone with myself so that I can produce, think, wonder, miss.”

4. Luxurious Baths

Demir loves to take baths, which are shown to have health benefits. “When we take a steamy shower or a hot bath, it opens up our pores and flushes out the dirt and toxins that build up throughout the day,” says SCL Health. “Aside from just feeling cleaner, it also helps us look and feel better about ourselves when we take care of our skin.”

5. Living Her Dream

Demir enjoys the satisfaction of following her passion and making a career out of it. “At no time in my life have I thought of doing anything other than music,” she says. “I can't either. In this process, I realized that it is necessary to produce content for digital platforms. I've been preparing and uploading live performance videos for my YouTube channel with my fellow travelers that I've been working with for years.”

Ayos loves to spend time outside. Specifically, she likes to go to the beach, and spend time by the water. She posted these photos on Instagram of herself going for a run on the shore. Ayos captioned the post, “Sequence of the beach reel.” MedIndia states that going to the beach has a lot of benefits. “Water is considered one of nature's best remedies for overcoming the stresses of everyday life. Spending time on the seaside and enjoying the fresh air and sunshine can produce serotonin, which is an important hormone associated with the feeling of happiness and relaxation.”

Ayos is very grateful for her life. She talked about her gratitude in the caption of this Instagram video.

5. She Works Out Her Legs

Ayos doesn’t forget, or skip, her leg and lower body workouts. She posted these photos on Instagram of herself doing some standing donkey kicks with a weight. She captioned the post, “A varied combo of opposites coexisting in total harmony (because you can, huh!) inside and outside this container... music, humor, poetry, history, quite street, character, flaws, anger, laughter, and this kind of hand in hand with the law of gravity. Stay calm, in the long run I will accept the inevitable defeat, but in the meantime, I face it and enjoy the contrasts that curvilinear bodies well combined with other virtues ( and without prejudice).”

Filipino star Sheena Halili is determined not to let preconceived notions about motherhood keep her out of sexy swimsuits. The TV host posted a beautiful snap of herself wearing a black two-piece on the beach, looking happy and healthy. “People have been talking about what kind of swimsuits moms should wear and why is that? There shouldn't be a ‘one size fits all’ when you're dressing as a mom. As long as you're comfortable in it--no matter how much skin you're showing (or not!) you should go on and wear it! 😘,” she captioned the post. How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Halili stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Scuba Dives

Halili is a big fan of scuba diving, and practises as much as she can. “In addition to being a good cardio workout, scuba diving is a great way to build muscle strength and endurance,” says Scuba.com. “Swimming, especially against a current, forces divers to use muscles in their legs, core, and arms. This effort helps to build lean muscle mass and promote muscular endurance. This makes scuba diving a great way to increase strength without putting too much stress on your joints. And don’t forget about those tanks! Carrying scuba tanks and other gear is another way to improve upper body strength. Additionally, lifting tanks activates muscles in your arms, back, and core, making diving a true full body workout!”

2. She Always Makes Space For ‘Alone Time’

Halili takes ‘me-time’ coffee breaks whenever she can. “As a psychologist, I know the research, and the research is clear: Alone time is essential for emotional/mental/ spiritual/social/physical health, and a key element of true happiness,” says Dr. Christina Hibbert. “By ‘alone time’ what I really mean is time away from your role as a mother—time to be YOU, to unwind, relax, rest, revive. This can include taking a nap, sleeping in, reading, hiking, going out with a friend, doing a project or activity you enjoy, or anything that helps you feel like the real you and builds your health and strength. Some need more or less alone time, but all will benefit from a few minutes each day, hours each week, and/or days away each year.”

3. She Loves to Swim

Halili is an avid swimmer and loves spending time in the water. “Swimmers have about half the risk of death compared with inactive people,” says the CDC. “People report enjoying water-based exercise more than exercising on land. They can also exercise longer in water than on land without increased effort or joint or muscle pain.”

4. She Uses a Flotation Pod

Halili loves using a flotation pod for relaxation and stress relief. “Healing our body makes us a better person, a better wife & a better mom! #gratitude 🧘 🏻‍♀,” she captioned an Instagram snap of herself using the device. “The flotation pod is a sensory deprivation chamber with water saturated with 360-540kgs of Epsom Salt (aka Magnesium sulfate) used to create buoyancy so you float effortlessly. Additionally, the water is heated to your body’s skin surface temperature, about 34°C. This treatment encourages the brain & body to rebalance itself without intervening external stressors. Floating triggers physiological relaxation, helps relieve physical stress like joint pains, and aches, reduces mental stress like anxiety, depression, lowers cortisol and blood pressure, aids in getting restful sleep, enhances creativity, and boosts overall disposition.”

5. She Loves Pilates

Halili is a big fan of Pilates, and continued practicing it throughout her pregnancy in 2020. “Oftentimes, people feel that their body has been compressed, tense, and tight beforehand but leave the studio feeling more loose and more aware of their body,” says Marina Kaydanova, founder of BK Pilates in New York City.
