1. She Plays Tennis

Coronado enjoys playing tennis. “Tennis is a fast-paced sport,” says Dr. David Broom from Sheffield Hallam University. “The average rally lasts for 5–7 seconds and you have to sprint for the ball. Working at a high intensity for short periods like this improves your anaerobic capacity – which means you can make explosive movements without getting tired as quickly.”
2. Snorkeling and Swimming

Coronado loves swimming and has developed a new-found passion for snorkeling. “People report enjoying water-based exercise more than exercising on land,” says the CDC. “They can also exercise longer in water than on land without increased effort or joint or muscle pain.”
3. She Loves To Read

Coronado is a fan of both fiction and non-fiction books, and features whatever she’s currently reading on social media. "Reading is an excellent way to relax and can be a great nighttime ritual," says Angela Buttimer, MS, NCC, RYT, LPC, a facilitator at Thomas F. Chapman Family Cancer Wellness at Piedmont. "Reading about people who are different from us can help us understand another person's life experience and give us gratitude for our own life experience. It's also helpful to read books about people who have gone through the same things we have. They may have a way of describing their experience that helps us articulate our own experience."
4. Ice Baths

Coronado loves taking ice baths at the spa, saying it makes her feel energized. “There’s no doubt that some people get great relief from using ice baths,” says sports medicine physician Dominic King, DO. “Patients can get physical, mental and functional benefits from this kind of cold therapy.”
5. Walking Outside
Coronado sometimes just walks in circles on the grass, saying the movement energizes her on slow days. “Walking for 2.5 hours a week—that’s just 21 minutes a day—can cut your risk of heart disease by 30%,” says Harvard Health. “In addition, this do-anywhere, no-equipment-required activity has also been shown to reduce the risk of diabetes and cancer, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, and keep you mentally sharp.”
