She Eats Healthy
Hope revealed some of her diet and exercise secrets to Your Healthy Living. She revealed that she eats pretty healthy, and took the site through her typical meals. "I usually have an egg white omelette with spinach, fresh tomatoes, sometimes some avocado and some fruit. Lunch is always a fairly elastic concept: some days it's a sandwich or salad on the go, others it's a full spread of finger food if I'm on a shoot. If I'm at home I'll often prepare myself a bowl of soup. If I'm feeling super organised that week, I'll make a pan of veggie, lentil or chicken soup to last the week. In the evenings, a typical dinner often consists of fish or prawns with green vegetables or salad, and noodles or couscous. Stir fries are a pretty common dinner for me as they're quick and easy to make delicious – not a lot can go wrong!"
She Practices Yoga
In a revealing article she wrote for Glamour, Hope admitted that she struggled with burnout. She says that she started incorporating yoga and meditation into her routine. "As well as balance and perspective, yoga and meditation helped train my mind to focus inwards without distraction, to finally be alone with my own thoughts, which was painful at first. I'd never stopped to properly consider a number of things: how my relationship break-up had affected me or taken stock of my achievements. I was paying extortionate London rent on my flat but spending little time in my own space. I'd forgotten what I was working so hard for, what I stood for."
She Spent Time Alone
Hope tells Glamour that she has become more comfortable with herself. She says that she did this by spending time alone. "Travelling alone gave me time and space, free of the pressures of trying to verbalise experiences, so I could simply feel the joy of my own existence. This was an extremely powerful realisation: I didn't just find strength and solace in being alone, but I learned to love it. I began to feel comfortable with myself and confident in my choices, which in turn reignited my motivation and creativity. I realised I didn't have to drive myself into the ground seeking other people's approval to feel I was achieving something."
She Makes Health A Priority
Hope tells Your Healthy Living that she prioritizes living healthy, as it helps with her career. "Getting plenty of exercise and eating healthily is what keeps me afloat and feeling human amidst the madness of a fast-paced work life that never seems to stop. Going to the gym not only keeps me in shape, but it brings balance to the day and is amazing for my mental health too; it clears my head."
She Takes Gym Gear With Her
Hope has a busy schedule, which means she doesn't always have time to work out. However, she does have a trick. "It's often tricky to find time to fit in proper workouts as my schedule is often very erratic, but I carry my gym kit on me at all times," she tells Your Healthy Living. "So, if there's a spare hour in between shoots, shows or meetings, I can pop to the gym, at best for a class, or if there's nothing available then at least a session on the cross trainer or treadmill. If I am working on an article or my book, I tend to do my writing in the cafe at my gym, which means it's easy to get a workout in as a break. Where possible, I walk everywhere. It's great exercise, gives me a chance to reflect, and taking deep breaths of fresh air is really therapeutic."
