Sosie Bacon is devouring a mango in her swimsuit. In one of her latest social media posts, the Smile star shows off her amazing body in a bathing suit, while publicly joking with her father, actor Kevin Bacon. “I know you love the criss cross cube method but have you ever tried “cutting” a mango like THIS?!?” she captioned the Instagram post. “Show off!” her father responded. How does the actress approach physical and mental health? Celebwell rounded up some of her top healthy living methods.
1. She Reads
Sosie is an avid reader. “I am really terrible at reading scripts. I really like reading books, because they explain everything, and in scripts, I have a hard time visualizing what's going on,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.
2. She Doesn’t Deny Her Pain
Sosie has a “zen opinion,” when it comes to pain. “The only reason why people are saying that is because it's hard for them to watch pain in somebody else. I'm not blaming anybody, but it can make you feel like you are going crazy. If somebody continues to deny your pain, then you start to question your own pain. At a certain point, you're not allowed to have it. This is true for women and all marginalized groups. Because it's our instinct to go, ‘Well, it's not that bad for them.’ And we can't really judge how bad it is for anybody,” she told Harper’s Bazaar.
3. She Trusts Her Own Instincts

Sosie has learned how to “trust” her “own instincts,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “I think that we are the only people that know what we should do. That's been from probably, namely, my mom. That's the best advice that you can get—check in, talk, listen, take your own kind of advice,” she said.
4. She Rides Horses
Sosie is an avid equestrian. “The professional preparation routine of an experienced award winning equestrian,” she captioned a post. According to the American Heart Association, riding horses is great for your health. Not only does it boost cardiovascular health, but builds core strength, burns calories, and lowers blood pressure. It is also great for your mental health as it helps relax you.
5. She Hikes
Sosie hikes often. Here she is trekking. According to the National Parks Service, the physical benefits of hiking include:
- "Building stronger muscles and bones
- Improving your sense of balance
- Improving your heart health
- Decreasing the risk of certain respiratory problems"
