What\u2019s your favorite healthy meal to cook?<\/h3>\r\nI love cooking a variety of meals, but roasted fish and pastas are my favorite. And since I have the extra time now, I’ve been testing my cooking skills. I built the courage to make Avgolemono, my favorite Greek soup with lemon, chicken, and rice. My mum usually cooks for me, and nothing beats mum’s cooking!\r\n\r\nIf I need to be extra healthy, I’ll make a plate of 80 percent vegetables and 20 percent protein<\/a>. Also, I’ll cook with coconut oil instead of olive oil. For when I want to indulge healthily, I’ll reach for gluten-free pasta<\/a> or dairy-free ice cream.\r\n

What workouts are you doing at home?<\/h3>\r\nI have a few favorite trainers whom I’ve enjoyed following over some time now, including Melissa Wood<\/a>, Megan Roup<\/a> of Sculpt Society, and Shannon Nadj<\/a> of Hot Pilates. It’s extremely motivating to follow their workouts, even from the comfort of home.\r\n\r\nI usually gravitate toward workouts that incorporate a lot of Pilates. My favorite moves are making small circles and stretching your legs with ankle bands. Lastly, I like to use a resistance band, pointing your feet and pulsing up and down; it’s great for the inner and outer thighs.\r\n

Which self-care practice is non-negotiable?<\/h3>\r\nSelf-care isn\u2019t only about what you see on the outside, so I make sure to take care of my body from within. It’s important to nourish my body with good food and my vitamins. By doing so, I see a huge difference in my energy, skin, and mood. I\u2019m glowing and happy!\r\n\r\n\"Shanina\r\n

How do you make your skin glow?<\/h3>\r\nFirst, I aim to do facials twice weekly. I also stick to a skincare regimen with these products:\r\n
