1. She Prioritizes Her Health, Mind and Body

In her book Pretty Happy: Healthy Ways to Love Your Body, Kate promotes the importance of well-being. She understands life can get busy, especially seeing how her mother, Goldie Hawn, handled raising her, but it’s still so important to put your mental and physical health first. "I'm finally at a place in my life where if someone wants to know what I do to stay healthy, why not tell them?" she asks. "Why not put it out there?" She’s not gatekeeping her tricks and wants to promote a healthy lifestyle to other busy women

2. She Dances Her Way To A Slim Figure

"Dancing is the thing for me," she says. "It just makes me feel so much better." We got a little taste of her dancing skills on the show Glee when she guest starred as Cassandra, Rachel Berry's dance teacher in college. She loves to take classes in a more structured environment and sometimes just freestyle, being goofy on her own. Blasting music in the comfort of her own house. "Sometimes I'll lock myself in a room and dance. I'll turn music on as loud as possible and just get weird!" she says, laughing.

3. She’s Not Afraid To Switch It Up

She is constantly changing a lot in her life, and that includes her workouts. "Change is my constant,” she says. "I change my routine. I change my look. I change my mind," said Hudson. When it comes to her fitness routine, that’s the thing she likes to switch up the most. "I'll do Tracy Anderson, I'll do Body by Simone, I do everything," Hudson said. "Nothing, literally nothing, makes me feel like I'm back to my body more than pilates," she says. "I'll travel, and I'll go for a run or I'll spin, but when I go home and get on the reformer or the Cadillac, my body immediately goes back. I can see an instant shift."

4. She Does What's Best For Her Body

She really avoids fads and just does what works for her own individual body and what she enjoys doing. "I don't judge my practice, ever,” she says. She loves challenging her mind and body with transcendental meditation and Kundalini. "You could sit there and not think of your mantra for your whole practice, but you're still benefiting," she says. She's also a big believer in taking a day or two to yourself. "Throw that idea of 'I have to, I have to, I have to' out the window."

5. She’s Mindful and Makes an Effort to Eat Breakfast

Just like exercising, when it comes to Kate's eating, she tries not to obsess, but also to stay mindful. She aims to have five small meals each day, trying to pick mostly plant-based options. "I've pretty much cut meat out," she says. "I don't remember the last time I ate a steak." She sometimes has difficulty with her morning routine, not being much of a breakfast person but has heard that it’s important to eat something in the morning. "The hardest thing for me is eating right when I get up, because I don't like to. I'm not one of those people who wakes up hungry," she explains. "I wake up and I want coffee and even a green juice, but everybody says you've got to eat something, even if it's little. So that's sort of the hardest, but I realize that when I do, I eat less during the day or late at night."

Kate Hudson knows the value of a good look. That’s why her latest post is so notable: “The way I look at my favorite new @kingstvodka cocktail says a lot,” she captioned a post of her on the beach in a bikini, gazing into a cocktail glass filled with King St. Vodka, her brand. “We can’t take our eyes off of you either,” the vodka brand commented back.

1. This is What Motivates Her

What motivates Kate? “For me, I know that when I'm active, when I'm healthy, when I'm strong, I feel so much better. It never leaves me. I get motivated to do different things, though. One of the things that I find helps a lot of people, number one, is support—like friends, apps, cute clothes. When you look good in something, it does motivate you to say, 'Okay, I'm going to take a walk' or 'I'm going to go for a hike' or 'You know what, I'm going to walk around the block.' The little, tiny things can be really motivating,” she told The Thirty.

2. This is Her Beauty Regimine

"When anyone asks me about my beauty regime, my answer is always sleep, water, and healthy food. For me, that's where it all starts. Beauty really comes from how we treat our bodies and how we honor ourselves," Hudson told Marie Claire.

3. She Worked Out at Home During Quarantine

“But the one thing that did change a lot for me is I got really excited about doing my own fitness—not feeling like I had to go anywhere but actually getting into all the different things that were out there. It was really fun dancing with people on live feeds, and then, I discovered so many different apps,” she told The Thirty. “I go back and forth between a couple of different things. We did just launch our fitness app for Fabletics, and they're doing a great job, but it's brand-new, so I'll talk about other apps as well. I like an app called Obé. What I love about Obé is it's hard. I find that in some apps, it's not a really hard workout. It seems I can get a real workout, especially with the 45-minute ones.”

4. This is Why She Started Her Own Supplement Line

She created her own supplement company, called INBLOOM. “I hate pills,” Hudson told ELLE.com. “And I actually like when things absorb quicker, so I created powders." Why? “I've been asked to do a lot of beauty [in my career], whether it be makeup or skincare, and I love all of it, but I'm a big believer in beauty being an inside-out experience,” she told the website. “And so I thought, what better way than to start with a system that I could create, that could support health and nutrition and wellness. I wanted to create an easy, accessible, premium program so that you're getting top ingredients, that there are no synthetics. I wanted everything to be very pure and very little filler.”

5. She Makes Me Time

“I do check out. I go away with [my family], usually to our ranch in Colorado. I sit and look out at the mountains," she told Women’s Health. "My doctor says I should be going away on my own, but I’ll do that when my kids are a little bit older.”

Kate Hudson, the actress and entrepreneur, is celebrating National Watermelon Day. She just shared a stunning new photo on her Instagram story. In it, Hudson enjoyed a day at the pool, while drinking a watermelon cocktail. She posed in a dark blue swimsuit, looking stunning. How does she stay so fit?

1. She Uses A Variety Of Products

When it comes to skincare, Hudson believes in using a variety of different products. “Everything for me has always been about customizing my experience,” she tells Glamour. “I don’t just use one product. I use so many different products, and every day my skin is doing something different, whether it’s environmentally or hormonal. I try things all the time, I don’t know why I’m not a beauty blogger. I love using different products, I also think our skin needs different things. One skin-care routine, I don’t buy into it. That’s why I’ve never done a line myself. I would get bored of it.”

2. She Only Washes Her Face At Night

Hudson tells Glamour that she only washes her face once a day. She also says that she opts to do so at night. “​​My routine in the morning is easy. I don’t wash my face unless I had a night out that was a little more alcohol-heavy than I had hoped. I’ll use Egyptian Magic if I have any eye-makeup residue, anything that is sticky. But other than that, I don’t ever wash my face in the morning. I wash my face very thoroughly at night, and then I let my face oils actually hang out. I don’t want to strip my face too much.”

3. She Uses Face Masks

Another part of Hudson’s skincare routine is using face masks. “I formulated my mask so that I could use it at least three times a week,” she tells Glamour. “I love my masks so much, and I wanted one that I could customize, that I could make it heavier or something light. I find that when I’m working, I need masks more. I want to be able to apply it without having it be a once a week thing. If I’m on a set, my skin gets so tired, and it’s good to have something that can liven up your skin. So in that case, I would do a thinner version of my mask for three to five minutes.”

4. She Stays Hydrated First Thing In The Morning

Hudson broke down her daily routine and diet to Harper’s Bazaar. She says that she likes to start her day off by drinking water and celery juice. "First thing I do when I wake up is I stare at the wall and I think to myself, 'Am I going to get up now? Or am I going to get up 50-minutes from now? Or am I just going to go back to sleep?' And then I drink water. I do not eat first thing in the morning. The first thing I do in the morning is I have celery juice. And if anybody does celery juice on an empty stomach they know why—cause it's a joyous morning activity."

5. She Challenges Herself

Hudson makes sure to push herself when it comes to fitness. She says that she always wants to feel like she has accomplished something. "I'm definitely challenging myself in new ways, which I need," she tells People. "I like to be able to set new goals to see what I can accomplish, and I love how flexible and strong I feel after a good workout, especially doing Pilates, which never gets easier."
