Zooey Deschanel Self

I heart Zooey Deschanel. She's too cute. The 29-year-old actress plays Summer in the film 500 Days of Summer and she's also one half of the band She & Him.

When Deschanel isn't busy planning her wedding to Death Cab for Cutie's Ben Gibbard, she's taking full advantage of the warmest season. 

Zooey is Self magazine's August covergirl and she shares her tips on how she keeps healthy emotionally, mentally, and physically.

She tells Self:

  • Wear all green and roll down a grassy hill. You don't have to worry about staining clothes and I bet this is a great de-stress tool.
  • Wear baby sunscreen. It smells better.
  • Run around in the sprinkler. The kids will love it that mom joined them!
  • Wear a bonnet or straw hat. Protects your face from the sun and looks great.
  • Have a sing-a-long with the family.
