1. She Believes in the Healing Powers of Water

Wrote Hunter from Hawaii on Instagram: “𝑾𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓 ~ This 𝑸𝒖𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒐𝒇 𝒂𝒏 𝑬𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕, where would we be without this soothing sensual grace? that we not only embody, but surrounds us,” she wrote, captioning her Hawaiian beach shots. “Whether we are drinking, submerging, or watching bath, lake, sea what ever you wish! Soothing a dry body allowing the wet to soak into our skin, making it expand ,dewy and supple ,taking away the emotions that we have gathered. Just one brief moment submerged under here and raising up out feeling invigorated with her initiation qualities of washing away the old and cleansing for the new noon,

Meanwhile I’m quite happy here in my sunglasses submerged in the rock pool floating, crawling around, feeling absolutely beached, looking at the odd turtle poke it’s head up ,fish swim by looking at my very burnt behind. Washing + soaking away all this crazy" stuff "that no longer serves me over this last year ! I highly recommend while going through the change in the body, water has very much been a wise one for me.”

2. She is a Trained Yoga Teacher

“I had been practicing yoga for about 11 years on and off before I did my training in India in 2017,” she told New Beauty. “I found there were some incredible sweet spots during yoga those first 11 years, where my mind would let go of the constant running of thoughts going around in my head. This led to more creativity, to being in the moment and enjoying the connection between the breath and the body. But, I still wanted to understand more of what yoga is—I previously thought it was just asana (a sitting meditation pose). So, when I went to India, I unraveled a whole evolutional tool box for myself.”

3. She Recommends You Be You!

“I have always loved doing jobs that allow me to connect with people, which started during my modeling days. I’m extremely grateful for my 30 years in the modeling business; everything that has happened has been the way it was meant to be,” she told New Beauty. “I once asked my mother what her biggest regrets were. Her answer was: ‘not being who you are.’ From that moment in my modeling career, everything changed. It was time to fully step into my life and India was—and still is—a place of transformation. I wanted to connect to what I loved; we are not just limited to our job titles. So step in and Be YOU!”

4. She Once Had Cheat Days

A few years ago, Hunter said to Women’s Day: "I have " eff it "Sundays' where I diet during the week and then eat whatever I want on Sunday. I don't go crazy, but there's no pressure," she said.

“Seeing the numbers 2020 all I could think of was

' Clear Perception ,Truth'

The finale of 2020 has brought up for myself or I have seen Fear , Tears, Anxiety, constantly questioning our health, wanting to see loved ones, families . Hug our kids . Seeing them 6ft away not being able to hug them.

As soon as we share where we are at, or are heard, we feel a release, some space .

Tears can be shed , room is felt in The Body relaxing, then some moments of relief .

Most important is we are ALL relative regardless of what we have or don’t have , in feeling where we are all at.

Feels murky still , but in that murky , has purged truths .

I can only sense where there is murky there is mud , mud turns earth, from earth , we start to grow a stable foundation , solid, evolving ,Rising . We Rise again in our truth who we are.

As this second wave is hitting up here More than Ever always in my thoughts + prayers are the Front liners and those lost and affected by this." She inserted a thank you emoji. "it never a seems enough words to you all .

Lots of love Thankful for YOU ALL + my YOGA PRACTICE .

Truth is our own Perception ...

Refine it . Give it vitality. Give it clarity . Knowledge .

Allow your Soul and human expression be your truth .”

"Today is #InternationalWomensDay, a day where we as women are celebrated," she captioned one clip. "We celebrate the power that being a woman comes with. The strength, the perseverance. We are reminded to be proud of our sexuality, to be proud of our bodies, and to challenge ourselves every day to love ourselves more and more."

"Some days confidence comes easier, sometimes it’s a challenge," she added, "but if we all make a commitment to lift each other up, it will come more often."

2. She Now Loves Herself

"I struggled with an eating disorder when I was 14 and I'm so lucky that I came out of the other side of it," she said. "I learned so many amazing things from it that I honestly wouldn't take back." "I've never loved myself as much as I do now, which is so important. I think it's the most important quality any woman can have," she continued. "It's just self-love, self-respect, self-confidence and body positivity."

3. Her Mom is a Big Inspiration

Of mom Lisa Rinna, Hamlin says: "She taught me how to love myself, how to unapologetically be myself, how to make fun of myself, and self-deprecate myself in amazing ways that actually ended up helping me with my confidence, and not take myself too seriously," she explained. "I think that's a really big key to life."

4. She’s Into Yoga Gear

Hamlin has sported the Alo clothing, a yoga brand. “Practicing slow, controlled breathing stimulates the body's vagus nerve, which takes information about the current state of relaxation and relays it to the rest of the body, including the brain. One area affected when the vagal nerve is stimulated is the parasympathic nervous system, which controls the body's rest and digestion functions. The mindful breathing practiced in yoga increases the activity of the parasympathic nervous system. As a result, yoga lowers the heart rate, improves digestion and quality of sleep, and strengthens the immune system. Another benefit is an improved stress level,” says the Mayo Clinic.

5. She Hits the Gym

Hamlin is frequently photographed leaving a gym. “The Department of Health and Human Services recommends that healthy adults include aerobic activity and strength training in their fitness plans, specifically,” says the Mayo Clinic:

• At least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity a week, or an equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous aerobic activity
• Strength training exercises of all the major muscle groups at least twice a week.”

No more reading into the negative comments and hate for me 🙅🏽‍♀️ just pure positivity from here on out! Because people are either going to hate or love you! I have nothing to prove nor do I no longer want to have to prove anything for those who haven’t got to meet me and get to know me in real life. I don’t have the energy for the hate anymore.”

2. She Rides Horses

The American Heart Association explains that riding horses is great for your health. Not only does it boost cardiovascular health, but builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.

3. She Snowboards

“Do you ski or snowboard? I started skiing as a kid, got bored so I learned how to board,” she captioned a photo while on a snowboarding trip to Aspen.

4. She Hikes

Rachel also enjoys hiking, “one of the best ways to get exercise,” according to the National Parks Service. “No matter what type of trail you find yourself on, hiking is a great whole-body workout—from head to toe and everything in between,” they say. Some of the physical benefits include building stronger muscles and bones, improving your sense of balance, improving your heart health, and decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems.

5. She Hopes to Inspire Others

Gordon Ramsay’s daughter HollyAnna has grown up in the public eye, and seems perfectly comfortable in front of the camera—and the microphone. Ramsay is an outspoken advocate of mental health support, speaking about it on her podcast 21 & Over with Holly Ramsay. The 22-year-old shared photos of herself in a patterned orange bikini and a flowing white skirt, with the cheeky caption “I’ll send u a postcard next time 💌 ❤️‍🔥🩰🎰🪩.” How does she stay so fit? Read on to see 5 ways Ramsay stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bathing Suit Photos!

1. She Is Sober

Ramsay took a year off from drinking alcohol after realizing it was doing her mental and physical health no favors. "Today marks one year without alcohol,” Ramsay said in December 2021. “This is not something I thought I would ever say at the age of 21. However, by 21 (nearly 22) I never thought I would've been through half of what I have. I choose to take a break from alcohol because it wasn't improving my mental health - which for me, comes first."

2. She Loves the Ocean

Ramsay frequently posts photos of herself at the beach, clearly loving the sand and the seawater. “Exercising in natural environments has been shown to have greater benefits for mental health than exercising elsewhere,” says Sergio Diez Alvarez, director of medicine, The Maitland and Kurri Kurri Hospital, University of Newcastle. “This is because it combines the benefits of exercise with the restorative effects of being in nature. Swimming in the ocean is no less the case.”

3. She’s Open About Her PTSD

Ramsay is an advocate for removing the stigma surrounding mental health issues, and has opened up about her past struggles with PTSD. “I went to university, studied fashion design, and I loved it. But by the second half of the first year I was being affected by my PTSD and I had no idea that this was happening,” Ramsay said on her 21 & Over with Holly Ramsay podcast. “I was going out a lot, missing class because I'd been out. I wasn't enjoying myself. I was struggling a lot. The PTSD was a result of two sexual assaults when I was 18… I didn't tell anyone about it until a year afterwards. I just buried it in a box in the back of my mind. [In hospital] is where I was diagnosed with PTSD, anxiety and depression.”

4. She Loves the Mountains

Ramsay is not just a beach devotee—she loves being in the mountains. Studies show that mountain air offers many health benefits. "If living in a lower oxygen environment such as in our Colorado mountains helps reduce the risk of dying from heart disease it could help us develop new clinical treatments for those conditions," says Benjamin Honigman, MD, professor of Emergency Medicine at the CU School of Medicine and director of the Altitude Medicine Clinic. "Lower oxygen levels turn on certain genes and we think those genes may change the way heart muscles function. They may also produce new blood vessels that create new highways for blood flow into the heart."

5. She Has Therapy Sessions

Ramsay protects her mental health by having therapy sessions, and hopes that by speaking about it, others will consider getting help if they need it. “Since then, I have been in therapy up to three times a week. I now have these diagnoses that I carry around with me. It's confusing and I'm trying to take control of my narrative and use that to make something good,” she says.
