As you can see from her recent post, Morin has an adorable dog. Harvard Health states that owning a dog has some mental health benefits. “Dog owners are less prone to bouts of loneliness, anxiety, and depression. Simply petting your dog can make you feel less stressed. One of the greatest benefits of owning a dog is that it encourages you to practice mindfulness — being in the present moment and fully appreciating life. Mindfulness can help you relieve stress and also improves your overall health.”

2. She Swims

The Cleveland Clinic states that Pilates has a lot of benefits. “Pilates is focused more on building your core strength through a disciplined practice of several small-movement exercises during each session. A fundamental set of exercises is basic to each class and is learned first to strengthen your core and teach you how to move with each breath.”

4. She Walks

As you can see in her Instagram post, Morin likes to walk to stay in shape. Since she has a dog, she has to walk regularly. Harvard Health reports that walking can help you lose weight. “Harvard researchers looked at 32 obesity-promoting genes in over 12,000 people to determine how much these genes actually contribute to body weight. Among the study participants who walked briskly for about an hour a day, the effects of those genes were cut in half.”

5. She Sees A Therapist

Morin talked about taking care of her mental health in a YouTube video. She says that she is seeing a therapist. “When I first started seeing my therapist, I started seeing her in January. She was like, ‘what are the things that you want to do in therapy?’ And one of the things that stuck out the most that she said was, I said I wanted to get my sparkle back because I felt like sometimes you feel, at least for me, I feel like I go into these months where I am in a little cycle when you have anxiety and it feels like there's no way out of it and you feel like the world is going to end and you hyper fixate on something so small, it's something that someone told me that I actually will always remember.”

1. She Works With A Trainer

Wilkinson makes sure to stay in shape. One way she does so is by working with a trainer. Her trainer, Ashley Conrad, talked about working with Wilkinson to People. "She hadn't been working out very much because she had a slight injury, so the goal was to really just to get her moving again, get some weight off, and have her feeling better. [And] she wanted to look hot on her birthday!"

Wilkinson does a variety of workouts to stay fit. Conrad shared some of them in her People interview. "A normal day would start with a series of calisthenic warm-up exercises ranging from jumping jacks, to butt kicks, to high knees," Conrad says. "Then we'd go into a few different stretches. The majority of the stuff [utilized] body weight, like pushups, jumping jacks, lunges, sprints, planks, plank with a row."

3. She Hikes

In her Instagram post, Wilkinson is seen going for a hike with her dog. The Washington Trails Association states that hiking has a lot of benefits. “For many people, the idea of burning calories is one of the first things that comes to mind when they think about working out. Our bodies use stored energy (calories) to support normal body functions and to fuel us during physical activity. While any type of physical movement will result in the body using its stored energy, the unique nature of hiking can result in greater calorie burn than other forms of exercise. In fact, research from the University of Florida concluded that walking on uneven terrain, like that of hiking trails, causes the body to use 28 percent more energy than walking on flat, even ground due to the subtle shifts in the way your leg muscles must lengthen or shorten while hiking.”

4. She Golfs

Wilkinson is also seen golfing in her Instagram post. According to Randa, golf has a lot of health benefits. “Golf can help strength and balance, improve quality of life and provide aerobic exercise. On a regular 18-hole course, most players will walk between four and five miles, burning up to 2,000 calories.”

5. She Has A Dog

Wilkinson recently adopted a dog, and she features her pooch on Instagram. In her recent post, Wilkinson is seen hiking with her dog. Harvard Health states that dogs have a lot of health benefits. “Ongoing research is showing that the health benefits of owning a dog are undeniable. Dog owners have lower blood pressure and healthier cholesterol levels, and a lower risk of heart disease, than non-owners. There are also many psychological benefits to having a pooch around. Dog owners are less prone to bouts of loneliness, anxiety, and depression. Simply petting your dog can make you feel less stressed.”
