Kelsea Ballerini Is Focusing On Total Health In Her 30s

A healthy Kelsea Ballerini is a happy one!

The singer has expressed her resolve to embark on an intense holistic journey to ensure her health remains premium as she climbs higher on the 30s ladder.

Kelsea Ballerini's lifestyle changes come amid a significant professional transition, as she exits "The Voice" ahead of its 28th season.

The singer is taking a "360 healthy" approach to address new developments in her life. In this new journey, she sees herself aspiring to be "mentally healthy," "physically healthy," and "emotionally healthy."

Most importantly, she wants to stick around long enough to smell all her flowers after building such an illustrious career over the years.

To achieve that, Ballerini has made some changes in her professional dealings. Her new methods now include the stage being wide enough to let her run around for 90 minutes and still have all the energy to do so. In her words to PEOPLE:

"Can I wake up and take both the dogs on a walk and make sure that Dibs is going to all of his doctor appointments, and I'm on Zooms in the middle of it? Can I be present for everything that I need to? Can I make time for my friends, for my family, in the middle of all the chaos?"

Ballerini further broke down what her new normal entails. Her favorite part of everything is the walks, which make her "feel her best." Through walks, she gets the optimum dose of the good stuff- fresh air and good sunshine.

When she is not walking it off, the singer is trying her hand at Pilates. According to her: "That for me has been my tried and true the last five years because I don't hate doing it, and I don't want working out to feel like a punishment."

She also relies heavily on a healthy diet and is a strict follower of the 80/20 rule. She spends most of her time indulging in a healthy diet, and the remaining 20% involves getting a good bite at McDonald's.

Ballerini also loves a good home-cooked meal. She shared that cooking is one of her favorite hobbies, and her discovery about the benefits of a protein-rich diet for women has inspired her.

"I cook a really good chimichurri steak ... that is my go-to. I'll do it a couple of times a week. I have some in the fridge downstairs ready to go," the award-winning singer bragged.

Most importantly, the singer now understands that leading a healthy life goes beyond the aesthetics her twenty-year-old self saw it as.Now, her "360 healthy" goal has welcomed her to a whole new world of aging gracefully, with great mental health as an added bonus.

Ballerini added more feathers to her cap when she partnered up with Celsius as their newest ambassador to help her and others focus on their fitness goals.

As seen on E! Online, the singer noted that she prioritizes her fitness and wellness, whether performing or on break. On tour, Ballerini shared that she often focuses on getting healthy hours of sleep.

"Everything came second to that, because if I didn't get enough sleep, I was not a person the next day," the performer emphasized.

Her clever and consistent habits have kept her on track, and she never misses out on what she should be doing. One hack she learned was attaching little ankle weights as she walked the arena, preparing for her tour shows. In her words:

"So I would put on my little ankle weights, crack my Celsius, and I would walk the arena. I developed this little habit of going up to the top seat every night and watching the trucks load the stage in."

She repeated the 80/20 line, emphasizing that she dedicates a significant portion of her time to being mindful of her health, body, relationships, and soul. Ballerini added that the 20 goes to indulging in fun things, which is why she would try her hand at playing tennis for the first time this summer.

Ballerini made quite the impression when she appeared as a coach on the 27th season of "The Voice." She, however, dashed the hopes of eager fans when it was confirmed she would not be making an appearance on the 28th season of the singing show.

Per Good Housekeeping, she spoke about her reason for leaving back in May during an interview. Ballerini admitted that she recognized the need for a break amid all the chaos of the show.

While it seemed strange for her to finally recognize the need for one, she identified loads of fun activities she might want to tick off her list for the summer.

"Go to the beach? Huh? Learn to cook a new meal,hang out with the dogs. So that's kind of my agenda," the star added. In her farewell message to the fandom, she described being on the show as one of the highlights of her career.

The 31-year-old is also holding it down in her relationship. In January, The Blast reported that she celebrated two years of love with her Netflix star boyfriend, Chase Stokes.

In a romantic tribute, she flaunted how far they have come with their adventures. They captured moments of them on the beach, with their dog, and even on walks in the cold hours of the night.

"Two years of catching each other in countless cities, perfecting a chimichurri steak, and creating a world that revolves around dogs. love you so, teammate," the "Miss Me More" singer wrote in the caption.

Before finding love with the "Outer Banks" star, Ballerini was married to Morgan Evans for five years before going their separate ways in 2022. The couple cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their divorce.

Honestly? Good luck to Kelsea Ballerini on everything!
