The Beauty & Well-Being Routine Karlie Kloss Is Loving As Of Late

Karlie Kloss has evolved time and time again since stepping into the limelight as a young model. From her iconic (and plentiful) Vogue covers and Victoria's Secret runways to starting Kode with Klossy, a nonprofit that teaches young women to code and pursue careers in tech, she is the definition of a woman with range.

Most recently, Kloss has acquired i-D magazine and is slotted to become CEO while simultaneously partnering with wellness brand Therabody as an investor. She's busy, without a doubt, but juggles all of her endeavors with grace while (somehow) raising two young children. 

You may think, from an outside perspective, that Kloss' life is speeding up like never before—but in a recent conversation, she tells me that her mindset is quite the opposite. 

Her ethos is focused on the present moment, "Slowing down is the wrong way to phrase it, but it's more just adding intentionality and operating from a place of wellness," she explains. 

Both her physical health and mental health are aligned with this goal. "In my past and my career as a model, it's been more, 'How can I be a certain size? Fit a sample? How can I look my best for more vain purposes?' It's not a bad thing, but now it's so much more than that," Kloss notes.

"I have become quite competitive with time to try and go to bed earlier instead of always burning the midnight oil. It's not something anyone else would notice, but it's about how I feel that morning.

"One thing that I really took for granted before was time with loved ones. Now, catching up with friends and family in my life has become a big focus. It's not in an indulgent way, but it's just feeding and watering those relationships. 

"This is going to live by my bedside table because of both the breathing exercise setting and the guided tension release routine.

"My grams told me: 'People won't remember what you said, but people will remember how you made them feel.'
