Between Hailee Steinfeld’s multi-faceted career, finding what keeps her balanced in her everyday life is of the utmost importance.

Speaking to PEOPLE about her involvement in Core Hydration’s Find Your Balance campaign, the singer and actress says that balance is a “huge part” of her life.

“That is something I am actively trying to do between my professional life, my personal life, and combining both of them,” Steinfeld, 25, says. “Finding balance has been really a huge priority for me for a long time, especially in the last few years with the accumulation of everything. Having two shows, working on my music.”

To Steinfeld, strategies for maintaining balance in her everyday life vary — though there are a few she knows will never fail her.

“What I love about the act of finding your balance [is] it doesn’t necessarily have to be one specific thing. I find going for a walk, something as simple as being in nature, meditating, [and] following guided meditations [works] — I love working out, working out is a huge part of my life.”

She continues, “My dad is my personal trainer, one of the best if I do say so myself. And that time for me has become about walking out, feeling stronger mentally and physically.”

In some cases, Steinfeld also finds that calm within her hours at work.

“I really do feel though my work life can be very hectic at times, when I’m in a studio, I feel [at] peace. I feel a sense of balance and calmness through it all. I get to walk into a space and feel free and creative and that’s a huge place that I feel I find my balance.” Continue reading “Hailee Steinfeld Says New Song ‘Coast’ Is a ‘Taste of What’s to Come’: ‘Been a Long Time Coming’”
