1. She Writes
Castro loves to write. She recently wrote a book, and opened up about the process in an interview about the project. “The process of writing a book was absolutely liberating and healing and I hope you feel that way too, there are many things in it that I am not able to tell in front of a camera, either because they are very painful, or they give me a lot of happiness and I kept them, or because they make me feel sorry.”
2. She Plays With Animals
Castro is an animal lover. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself interacting with animals. Castro loves dogs. She posted this photo of her chihuahua on Instagram. She captioned the post, “His little tongue out.” “Owning a dog can prompt you to be more physically active — have leash, will walk,” says Harvard Health. “It can also:
- help you be calmer, more mindful, and more present in your life
- make kids more active, secure, and responsible
- improve the lives of older individuals
- make you more social and less isolated
Just petting a dog can reduce the petter's blood pressure and heart rate (while having a positive effect on the dog as well).”
3. She Swims
Castro loves to spend time in the water. She has posted several photos of herself at the beach. She posted this set of photos on Instagram of herself wading in Cartagena. She captioned the post, “To be very honest I don't remember when these photos were taken.”
4. She Goes Outside
Castro loves spending time in the great outdoors. One thing she likes to do is go hiking. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself and a friend hiking in Rio. Castro also loves to kayak. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself kayaking with friends. “There are statistics, studies and articles to support our idea, but we like to focus on the feedback from our participants. Consistently they state how peaceful it is to be in a kayak. You are close to the water, there is no roar of the motor, only the soothing sounds of a paddle as it gently glides through the water. And they consistently tell us that participating in a HOW event saved their life,” says Heroes on the Water.
5. She Bikes
Castro loves to bike ride. She posted this photo on Instagram of herself going for a ride. She captioned the post, “Everything can be achieved, even if the road is hard, there is a stress that lights up the place.” Biking is a great cardio exercise.
