I'm A Model, Holistic Health Coach & Content Creator — How I Care For Myself

As Lipovetsky describes herself, she’s a “type A person learning to be type B,” which really just means learning to let go a bit. I think it’s something that I certainly relate to, as well as a lot of women who feel they need to be in control at all times. 

But as Lipovetsky describes it to me, “I don’t want to continue to run myself into the ground with all this ambition all of the time. Because at the end of my life, that’s not what I will be remembering.”

Instead, “I want to lean into the receiving and pleasurable aspect of life.” 

For Lipovetsky, nurturing your body doesn't have to be complicated. You do, however, have to listen to it. And for her, that means following her body’s ques during hormonal shifts throughout the month. 

“You have to be in tune with your body because this is not necessarily a one-size fits all approach. Sure, there are certain guidelines, but it’s you who needs to check in and ask yourself, ‘is this working for me or not?’” she says. Speaking of guidelines, we wrote about following your menstrual cycle here in case you want to learn more. 

As an example she shares: “Let’s say I’m in my luteal phase, which is before my menstrual cycle begins. During this time, I emphasize foods that are rich in B vitamins, which will help me stay away from sugary foods”

Perhaps a surprising well-being tip, but one that any introvert will recognize: “A big staple that I can never get enough of is solitude. That I feel keeps my soul, my skin, my hair—everything—looking good and feeling good,” she says. “I am very much of an introvert, so I recharged by myself. I always feel better after spending time alone.”
