In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, Camila discussed how she suffered from anxiety in her teens and early twenties. “It was something I just lived with. I was used to having functioning anxiety that got really bad every half a year. Then I started opening up to friends, and I realized how much suffering and neuroses are normal, and that we’re all bats**t crazy in our own way, but when it keeps you from having healthy relationships and being more often than not in a relatively stable place, that I needed to seek out some therapy. Talking about it really helped me realize, ‘Oh, I think this is making my life harder than it is for other people,'” she said. Now, she gets help via weekly sessions with a therapist. “I love therapy!” she says. “I think pretending is a form of psychological torture and brings the most anxiety. We do that so much in our society and culture. We’re constantly hustling and putting on a smile when we don’t feel good.”
Camila’s lifestyle is very busy and she’s constantly on the move, however, she regularly finds time for outdoor activities. One of her go-tos? Hiking and standup paddle boarding. “Nothin to do nowhere to be,” she captioned a recent photo of herself standup paddleboarding. The American Council on Exercise (ACE) agrees that paddle boarding is great for the core and also a great form of cardio.
During the pandemic, Camila moved back to Miami with her family and found time to start riding her bike and cooking. “Obviously, this is a huge luxury, but if I felt like that again, I wouldn’t force myself to do anything and I wouldn’t pretend because who is that for? If I’m not being honest, then I don’t know what I’m bringing to people, you know?”
Camila, who counts Ed Sheeran as one of her friends, loves eating British foods. ‘”I love roast beef and a Yorkshire pudding, parsnips and potatoes. I love fish and chips. I love beans on toast,” she told Cosmo.
Camila works out with trainer Jenna Willis, who revealed to Shape that the two train together three times a week using minimal equipment doing strength, HIIT, and balance exercises, including complex movements that target the whole body. Camila makes sure to infuse fun into their workout sessions. “We end up getting in an added ab workout because of how much we end up laughing. Somehow she manages to keep me on my toes and turn every cardio move into an incredible-looking dance move.”
One of the greatest gifts Camila’s ex Shawn Mendes gave her? A love of veggies. “Shawn has influenced me to be healthier. I was not healthy at all before. I never ate vegetables before. Just like, easy vegetables like cucumbers or cold carrots with cesar. Which I wouldn’t say are hard vegetables,” she told BBC Radio.
