3. She Practices Self-Love and Acceptance

Serene practices self-love and acceptance. “The biggest thing I learned about myself is that I do deserve grace. I’ve always been really hard on myself and didn’t always allow myself to feel things.

5. She Drinks Coffee

Serene starts her morning off with a jolt of caffeine. “Get that big stretch in and make espresso. I’m a night owl so I need the extra help getting started,” she told Bachelor Nation. According to the Cleveland Clinic, there are several benefits of drinking coffee in moderation. “It acts on your brain to improve memory, mood, reaction times, and mental function,” they say, citing a study finding that caffeine can improve endurance and performance during exercise. It is also antioxidant-rich, can ward off diabetes, prevent neurologic disease, lower cancer risk, and ward off depression, they point out.
