Hailee Steinfeld Shares Some Important Self-Care Advice
The 21-year-old Pitch Perfect 3 star is wise beyond her years when it comes to knowing the value of putting yourself first.
We’re all guilty of being too hard on ourselves or failing to prioritize our well-being every now and then, which is why it’s absolutely essential to pause, reflect, and take a moment or two to truly care for ourselves, and no one knows this better than the “Love Myself” artist.
As an Oscar-nominated actress with a simultaneous singing career who also serves as an ambassador for the athletic apparel and accessories brand Mission, Steinfeld leads an extremely busy life. Her self-care routine, however, begins the moment she wakes up in the morning.
The True Grit actress divulged to HuffPost that she has recently started sleeping with her phone on the other side of the room in order to refrain from checking it before she gets out of bed. She also devotes 15 minutes a day every day to some form of physical activity, be it a simple walk through town or a quick trip to the gym. “Making sure that’s a priority, especially when you’re always on the go, is crucial,” she explained.
When asked what she does for her mental health on a regular basis, she responded that despite how constantly she’s around other people, she’s learned to enjoy her “me time.”
The pressures of social media to cultivate a “perfect” image online can be exceptionally imposing for young women, and Steinfeld doesn’t deny that she feels that pressure just like the rest of us. “I always just try to put out what makes me feel good. At that point, it doesn’t really matter to me what anyone says because it’s something that I love and posted. I think that Instagram and Twitter and other social media platforms aren’t necessarily the best places to look for validation,” she advised.
