Lessen Your Stressin’
The last few years of my life have been jam packed with all kinds of excitement! With Top Model, The Tyra Show, Tyra.com, and the occasional modeling gig (not to mention making time for family and friends) I have been a busy girl! It’s hard not to get stressed with SO MUCH going on in my life. I’m sure you are all as busy as I am with school, work, your community, family and friends. Here’s a list of Heather's tips that have helped me when I start to feel the stress coming on:
• Hit the gym! Take 20 minutes for some aerobic exercise or yoga to calm your mind. I like to hop on the treadmill. A mile later and you’ll forget what you were stressed about!
• Get a rub down! Getting a massage is my FAVE way to relieve stress. Grab a friend and trade shoulder rubs!
• Breathe easy. When I feel stress coming on, I always take a couple of deep breaths and I instantly feel better!
• Meditate tension away. Meditation doesn’t have to be complicated or new-agey to alleviate stress. First thing in the morning, find a quiet place and silence your mind for 10 minutes. You’ll stress less for the rest of the day!
• Smile Wide! When I start to feel stressed, I force myself to smile! It gives me the instant pick-me-up I need to keep going!
Fierce & Love,
Tyra

Or if that doesn't help I take a long walk in the woods behind my house and just enjoy the beauty of the earth and the fresh air. The sound of the birds and the trees blowing in the wind makes every thing fade away and also your getting out of the house and walking, burning off some calories :)

I know working out relieves stress,but the one major thing I ALAWYS stress about is my thighs.(it probably sounds so dumb.) I know that if i worked on my thighs enough and got them slimmed down a little i would honestly feel so much better about myself. What workouts do you do to maintain your beautiful figure?

Yoga - it changed my life so much for the better. And I am probably the last person you would expect to get into something like that. And looking pictures of Tyra is always a bit of a boost. :-)
