1. She Goes Horseback Riding
Sánchez loves to go horseback riding. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself going for a ride through the mountains. Going horseback riding isn’t just a great way to get outside, it can also have positive impacts on your mental health. According to a study in the Advances In Social Work Journal, horseback riding has become a form of therapy. “Equine-assisted psychotherapy (EAP) has emerged as a promising, evidence-based intervention for the treatment of trauma and stressor-related disorders.”
2. She Loves Animals

Sánchez is a big animal lover, and says that helping animals has made a positive impact on her life and mental health. She opened up about a cat that she had to help recently. “Remember what I told you about Akina? Less than 3 months ago we found her in a pond, she was very baby and with a broken leg. The vet said that he could live with his leg like this since it was a complicated operation for his age. Yesterday we took her to the vet for a check-up because she breathes strangely and it turns out that she has a hernia in her chest and the visors obstruct her lungs because of the blows she received when she was a baby. If we leave her like this, she can live 6 months or a maximum year with a terrible quality of life, so we are going to operate on her hernia this weekend, a high-risk surgery, but she will be in God's hands. What I'm going to do is that I don't understand the need of people who mistreat animals, I don't know what's inside their hearts, where their mercy and empathy are. Every day I see the publications of foundations for the care of abused and abandoned puppies like @amorsinraza @nitin.neza and it seems that it is a story that never ends. If you don't like animals, don't have animals but don't mistreat them either.”
3. She Stays Hydrated

Sánchez makes sure to stay hydrated and drink enough water. And she has a very unique water bottle. She posted this photo on Instagram with a large orange water bottle. She captioned the post, “Only water.” Staying hydrated is important for all people, especially for journalists and hosts like Sánchez. She has to do interviews, and all that talking can dry your mouth out. Also, spending a lot of time at a game can be both time-consuming and hot, so having water there is important.
4. She Loves Sports

Sánchez is a sports journalist, which means she spends a lot of time watching and covering games. And this is a dream for her, as she is a big sports fan. Sánchez is open about her love of certain teams and sports. She loves football, particularly the Las Vegas Raiders. She also loves baseball, particularly the New York Yankees. Going to games gives her a chance to head outside and have fun with friends, while dealing with the intense amount of adrenaline that comes from watching sports.
5. She Has Strong Faith
Sánchez has strong faith, and has been open about her beliefs. She calls herself part of the “Jesus Squad,” and will often quote Bible verses. Having faith, no matter what religion, is can be beneficial for your health. "Studies have found that religious involvement is associated with less cardiovascular disease," says one study. "Studies have found that religious involvement is associated with lower blood pressure and less hypertension. A recent study examined the relationship between religious activities and blood pressure in a sample of 3963 community-dwelling adults (age, ≥65 years) using data from 3 time periods. Adjusted for age, ethnicity, sex, education, functional status, body mass index, and previous blood pressure, frequent (≥once a week) attenders of religious services had consistently lower systolic and diastolic blood pressures compared with infrequent attenders."
