I always run without music. Being disconnected is what I'm addicted to more than anything. There aren't many places where you can be without your phone and computer. I've started to crave and enjoy that time alone.
Parents should not smoke in order to discourage their kids from smoking. A child is more likely to smoke when they have been raised in the environment of a smoker.
Yoga has been the best tool for managing stress and life's challenges. Everything from my studies to my father's death was eased by my practice of it.
Lipstick is the easiest way to dress up without doing a lot, but it's hard to maintain, so I always opt for nudes if I'm going out for a long time.
I remember doing a shoot for Herb Ritts, hanging off the Eiffel Tower - that wasn't your usual day at the office. It was terrifying, and in the end, you couldn't really tell how high I was because the photographer was scared of heights, so he was quite far away from me.
I grew up Catholic. My mother is from El Salvador, so my family on her side is Roman Catholic. My father is Protestant, and while he was spiritual, he wasn't much of a churchgoing person. I think it's fairly common for families to be brought up in the mother's religion.
Any spirituality can be enhanced with the practice or study of yoga.
I have lots of other mountains that I would like to climb. I have no dream of Everest, but there are some, like Mount Fuji, I'd like to do.
I do everything in moderation.
I almost had to exhaust myself at modeling before I could say, 'O.K., I'm ready for school.'
I was never directly pressured by peers, but by surrounding myself with others who were experimenting with smoking provided a certain false comfort.
There has been a lot of media attention around the dangers of drugs used to treat mental illness on the fetus.
So much of religion is exegesis. I would rather follow in the footprints of Christ than all of the dogma.
I'd rather go naked than wear fur.
I was really gangly and uncoordinated as a kid. I couldn't even do a cartwheel.
Even though Haitian women are considered the 'poto mitan' - the 'central pillars' of the family and their communities - they are often the most underserved members of already poor communities.
Most of us harbour a significant amount of subconscious fear about death, and act out of this fear in our daily lives.
America's health care system is the most complicated and expensive in the world.
I think there are so many extra benefits to running besides the health ones that come from getting your heart rate up, sweating, and all that other good stuff.
Like so many new moms, I felt anxiety over the impending birth of my daughter. However, most of the anxiety I felt was around the idea of raising a child. I wasn't focused on potential risks to my health or hers that could occur during the actual birth.
