Maintain a Healthy Diet
It all starts with a healthy diet for Khushali. "I wish I could eat anything and get away with it, but there's a secret to it," she in a YouTube video detailing her approach to health. "Yes, at times I do indulge and like everyone, I love eating and I have a sweet tooth." However, for her it boils down to moderation and the occasional cheat meal. "I guess for six days I'm on a strict diet. Like I would eat everything that is healthy and is good for your body," she said, adding that she cheats "once a week."
Eat a Plant-Based, Gluten-Free Diet
Khashali maintains she is "mostly vegan" and follows "more of a gluten-free diet," she explained. "So my breakfast is going to be either gluten-free oatmeal, oats with almond milk, soy milk, with a lot of fruits and nuts on it. At times I'm going to have a green smoothie. And then for lunch it's basically salad with gluten-free pasta." Another favorite meal? Tofu with salty vegetables with rice. "And for dinner it is mostly light. I try to do salt free. Also, soup with salted vegetables." Her biggest meal of the day is lunch. "I eat a good and a nice Olympic portion, and that keeps me full throughout the day." She also stops eating at six or seven o'clock. "I just feel too heavy and bloated."
Meditate
Khashali is all about getting her zen on. "I start my day with breathing exercises," she says. "At times I will meditate also." "When you meditate, you may clear away the information overload that builds up every day and contributes to your stress," says the Mayo Clinic. Benefits include:
- Gaining a new perspective on stressful situations
- Building skills to manage your stress
- Increasing self-awareness
- Focusing on the present
- Reducing negative emotions
- Increasing imagination and creativity
- Increasing patience and tolerance
- Lowering resting heart rate
- Lowering resting blood pressure
- Improving sleep quality
Hydrate
Khushali hydrates prior to eating anything. "'l'll have my two glasses of water," she says. "At times, I take apple cider vinegar vinegar with that." According to the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine men should drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 liters) of fluids a day and women about 11.5 cups (2.7 liters) of fluids.
Exercise
Khushali also makes sure to exercise. "I usually prefer to work out in the morning, before my breakfast," she said. Prior to exercising, she might eat a banana. "That's the time when I usually prefer, but then again, you know, it's whatever my schedule permits." If she can't work out during the day, she will do light stretches or exercise before bed. "I would go in for a walk and try to complete my 10,000 steps."
