She Doesn't Diet
Lea isn't a fan of dieting. Why? Because if you maintain a healthy lifestyle, there is no need. "It's not rocket science, it's the basics," she told Us magazine. "If you're always taking good care of yourself, and if you're always eating right…then no matter what comes up, you don't feel like you need to adjust or increase or anything."
She Eats Clean
Lea, who identifies as a pescatarian, has a very clean approach to diet. "Every single thing that I put into my body is to nourish and fuel my body," she told Us. "I've always felt that food is fuel so what you're eating is going to help your body. So I don't eat junk food, I don't eat processed food. I keep only fresh and healthy ingredients in my home so I can feel my absolute best."
She Drinks Water with Lemon and Green Juice
"The first thing I do when I wake up is pour a big glass of lemon water to just really flush my system and start the day right," she revealed to Us. She also has a go-to green drink. "Celery juice is so incredibly good for your body but it's actually for your liver and it's a great cleanse first thing in the morning," she said. "I've seen it improve my digestion so much, so that's another little trick that I've been doing in the morning as well."
She Does Yoga
Lea is a devoted yogi. "I've been practicing yoga since I was 19 years old. It's by far my most favorite form of working out," she wrote in a July 2021 blog for Story + Rain. "But I practice not only for my body, yoga has helped my mind more than anything I've ever tried before. It centers and grounds me, and connects me to myself at my core. As soon as I wake up, before the baby or anyone else is awake, I take out my mat and do a quick yoga flow. even just for five minutes. It gets my blood flowing, and helps me to feel energized for the day."
She Does Lots of Different Workouts
Lea mixes up her workouts, but they all have something in common."I like workouts with a spiritual element—whether it's SoulCycle or hot yoga," she told Health. She also enjoys outdoor exercise. "I hike all the time," she told Us. "We have so many great trails here on the West Coast so I love being outdoors and I love getting a workout outside."
She Focuses on Her Health Not Her Weight
Lea used to be more concerned with her clothing size, but now she focuses on her health. "I feel like I am at the healthiest place in my entire life. It's not that I'm the thinnest, because I'm not the thinnest I've been. But when I was the thinnest, I was not being the healthiest," she told Health. "I'm definitely the most mentally, physically, and spiritually sound that I've ever been," she explained.
