Lauren Sesselmann, an accomplished soccer player and Olympic bronze medalist, continues to inspire with her positive outlook and dedication to wellness. Currently playing for the Santa Clarita Blue Heat, Sesselmann’s fitness routine revolves around her passion for sports, particularly soccer and tennis. Recently, she shared a video by the pool on Instagram, quoting Marilyn Monroe: “Keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling.” Beyond the physical benefits of her athletic lifestyle, Sesselmann emphasizes mental wellness, taking time daily to count her blessings and stay grounded. She’s also focused on self-care, sharing how small rituals and supplements have become essential in maintaining her health and happiness.


1. She Plays Soccer

Soccer is the main way Sesselmann stays in shape. Better Health states that the sport has a lot of health benefits. “Soccer can be a great workout and lots of fun. The health benefits include that it: increases aerobic capacity and cardiovascular health, lowers body fat and improves muscle tone, builds strength, flexibility and endurance, increases muscle and bone strength, improves health due to shifts between walking, running and sprinting.”

2. She Counts Her Blessings

In her recent post’s caption, Sesselmann revealed that she makes sure to count all the blessings in her life. “Taking time every day to appreciate the beautiful blessings I’m surrounded with. Things might not always turn out the way I want but learning to embrace what’s not meant for me & realizing bigger & better things are right around the corner. Never lose faith that you are worthy of it all & in time it will all come together beautifully🌸☀️🌊”

3. She Takes Time For Herself

Sesselmann also makes sure to take time for herself. She talked about this in the caption of her recent Instagram video. “Take a minute today to stop, take a breath & take it all in. Each day is a gift…you’re alive, people love you & you bring so much light into this world..believe that!!! Have a blessed day everyone💞💞”

4. She Prioritizes Wellness

Sesselmann is making her wellness a priority in her life. She talked about this in the caption of this Instagram post from last year. Sesselmann wrote, “This past year I made a New Years resolution to prioritize my own health and wellness. After learning about my concussions and depression I’ve been slowly working my way back to a routine and instilling habits that help me start my day the best I can on a positive note. Enter...my personalized multivitamin with Rootine which has been instrumental in making me feel better❤️”

5. She Plays Tennis

Soccer isn’t the only sport that Sesselmann likes to play. She also enjoys playing tennis. Sesselmann shared this video on Instagram of herself on the court. Tennis has a lot of health benefits. The Columbia Association states, “Whatever your age or level of athleticism, tennis is an excellent full-body workout that releases feel-good endorphins to help you relax and relieve tension. Its low-impact nature also means your joints and bones will thank you. Because tennis includes short bursts of activity, it offers the same conditioning benefits of interval training, which has an unparalleled positive effect on the heart and lungs, slashing your risk of heart disease by 56% (!). Just an hour of play burns between 400 to 600 calories.”
