Melon For a Snack
Melon is one of Bhanushali's go-to snacks. "Melons are not only low in calories and fat, but they are also high in essential vitamins and minerals, and water content," says the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. "In fact, a fresh watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew contains up to 90 percent water, making them some of the most thirst-quenching snacks around. And serving them is simple as can be."
Love For Travel
Bhanushali says she loves going on road trips with her beloved dog. "Travel exposes you to different environments, which create stronger antibodies and boost your immune system significantly," according to the Yale Tribune. "Antibodies are the little proteins that shield your immune system from deadly pathogens, and multiple research studies imply that being exposed to dirty or minor illnesses really keeps your body and gut more grounded."
Surfing In the Sun
Bhanushali is an accomplished surfer. "Exercising outside can offer many benefits," according to the National Library of Medicine. "It can help improve your mood, expose you to vitamin D from the sun, and increase your energy level. It also offers a varied landscape that you do not get indoors."
Hiking In the Mountains
Bhanushali loves camping and hiking in the great outdoors. "Being in nature can boost your mood and improve mental health," says the National Park Service. "Spending quality time in the great outdoors reduces stress, calms anxiety, and can lead to a lower risk of depression, according to a study done by researchers at Stanford University."
The Importance of Me-Time
Bhanushali supports her mental health by taking time for herself. "I am a social person; yet I believe in being private," she says. "I enjoy my personal space and I don't like it when it's intruded upon by anyone. Me-time is my favorite time."
