Alicia Kaur travels the world on her head.
She does yoga, particularly headstands, just about anywhere.
On the beach. In the mountains. On the sand. Even inside a swimming pool.
The reason for different locales? Yoga, says the supermodel, makes her feel one with nature, wherever she goes.
One 'cannot always control what goes on outside, but you can always control what goes on inside' is her firm belief.

Alicia feels one has to always strive to become better versions of one's self.
Fan advice: 'It's time to take control of your life. Make the time and put in the effort towards activities that make you a better version of yourself... it's hard... but it's worth it'.

'If you can do anything before you die… learn how to be upside down (even on NZ's Port Waikato beach)!! It completely changes your perspective'.

'Write. I feel way more relaxed after I write about my feelings. One way is to keep a journal... I use my notes on my phone and lock them so no one can read them! Practice gratitude... write down or think of all of the things you're grateful for'.
