Dewan opened up about her experience during the pandemic to Women’s Health. She says that she learned to enjoy staying indoors. Dewan says that she is a lot more present right now. “I’ve learned for the very first time what it means to actually be quiet, to be present,” she says. “I’ve never been a homebody, and I love it.”
3. She Practices Holotropic Breathing

Dewan is open about her love of meditation and different breathing techniques and methods. One thing she likes to do is holotropic breathing. “It’s very effective for stress,” she says to Women’s Health. “You’re creating this rush of oxygen to your brain, and it calms your nervous system. It can be a little uncomfortable at first, but once you get past that, you really open yourself up.”
4. She’s Comfortable With Herself
Dewan is all about self-love. She tells Women’s Health that she is embracing herself as she gets older. “I feel better in my skin. I feel more grounded in my body. I feel excited for this next decade and what is available to create. Even in this crazy year, I still have that feeling.”
5. She Does A Variety Of Workouts
Dewan revealed her favorite exercises to Well + Good. “My workout schedule varies depending on my schedule and if I'm preparing for a role, shoot, or something else coming up," she says. "For the most part, I work out three or four times a week. My go-to workout is Pilates, which has really strengthened and toned my body in a way that makes me feel stronger than when I was dancing for ten hours a day. I also like cardio yoga. Sometimes, I work out with my trainer when I need to bulk up to get my muscles a little bigger. I get bored easily with workouts so I like to switch it up."
