Dewan revealed some of her wellness secrets to New Beauty. She says that even with her busy schedule, she makes time for herself. “I make sure I try to do pilates, meditate, take a shower and take time for myself. Little things that set me up for success. If I miss that and I don’t give that to myself, the rest of my day just spirals out.”

Dewan is open about her love of meditation. She tells New Beauty, “Meditation has been a game changer in my life. I do breath work meditations; I do TM-style mantra meditations; I do lots of things that sort of bring me back to a place of connection with myself and spirit.”

3. She Takes Probiotics

Dewan has started taking probiotics, and she is seeing benefits. “I also started taking new probiotic supplements, and I’ve noticed a lot of incredible, positive benefits in my life,” she says to New Beauty. “I’ve been a big proponent of probiotics for a long time, but then I was not sure I was taking the right ones and I had different issues that were all going on. Then Renew Life was recommended to me and I found they had a particular formula for women—for all the issues we deal with as women—so I said, ‘I’m going to try this and see if it helps.’ It not only helps with digestion, but also immunity, and I loved that it also has respiratory health covered, especially during this time.”

4. She Does The 80/20 Rule

When it comes to her diet, Dewan tells New Beauty that she believes in balance. “I believe in eating 80/20. I do 80 percent as healthy as possible—vegetarian, vegan, lots of vegetables and smoothies—and 20 percent I’m eating Mexican food if I want it. I’ve gotta be able to indulge and have a glass of wine and feel good in that way. That helps me not be so strict and focused in one way.”

5. She Takes Care Of Her Skin While Traveling

Dewan revealed her favorite skincare products to Prevention. She revealed that she takes certain products with her when she travels. "When I'm traveling I use argan oil to help balance my skin tone," she says. “I use this mask on the plane and it makes me look crazy, but it's really good for the skin.”

When it comes to acting, Harold wants to represent people. During her time on Eastenders, her character developed a brain tumor. She opened up about what this was like to The One Show. “It’s been a massive responsibility to be given this storyline by the show,” she said. Just because it’s affected so many people. Especially me starting the story, I didn’t realise just how many that it does and how little awareness there is and how little funding there actually is for brain tumour research.”

3. She Hikes

Harold loves to spend time outside. She does a lot of outdoor activities to stay in shape. One thing Harold likes to do is go hiking. While on a trip to Greece, she made sure to hike through the local spots. She shared this photo on Instagram of herself on top of a rock. She captioned the post, “Take me back.”

Harold captioned it, “I need some sun.” Healthdirect.gov reports that swimming has a lot of benefits. “Swimming is a sport that you can do in a squad or independently, at any time of year. Being low-impact, swimming is a great option for people recovering from injury. Swimming has many health benefits including increasing your fitness, muscle strength and wellbeing.”

Harold spends a lot of time outside. Her Instagram is full of photos of herself outside. Harold also travels a lot, and goes to a lot of different places.

Dewan makes sure to protect herself from getting sick, especially if it’s the flu. "I really believe in doing everything I can to stay healthy for my family throughout flu season,” she says to Shape. “So flu shots as well as vitamins and supplements are very important. Like every other working mom in the world, taking days off to be sick is really not helpful. I do everything I can to keep my immune system strong and to be there for my family."

2. She Makes Time For Herself

Dewan has a busy schedule, from work and her family life. However, she tells Shape that she always makes time for herself. "Rest is the hardest thing for me to come by, as I'm sure most people can relate,” she says. “But I try to get as much as I can. Making time for myself within working, within family, within all of that is very, very important for me and not the easiest to do, but I make it a priority."

3. She Loves Probiotics

Dewan opened up about her diet in her interview with Shape. “I do this probiotic drink in the morning,” she says. “And [my] digestion gets better, [my] bloating goes down...

4. She Believes In Balance

Dewan makes sure to eat healthy. However, she also isn’t afraid to give into her cravings. "I never deprive myself," Dewan tells Shape. "When I want to eat the nachos or French fries, I make sure I have the ability and space to do that. But I try to eat healthy most of the time."

5. She Does At-Home Skincare Treatments

Dewan shared some of her skincare secrets and tips with New Beauty. “I’ve been doing at-home self-care treatments with masks and different tools I have,” she says. “Like microneedling and gua sha. My gua sha stone is from Georgia Louise—her rose quartz Butterfly Stone that she gave me. I also really like the brand OSEA. I use their hyaluronic serum, they have a great cleanser, and they have this incredible body oil that I’ve used every single day—it smells so good and it’s all-natural.”

Jenna Dewan, the professional dancer and actress, began as a backup dancer for Janet Jackson, but has long been in in the forefront, currently on Come Dance With Me and The Rookie.

Jenna genuinely enjoys how she feels when she eats vegan and clean. "I consider eating healthy a way of life because I feel better, plain and simple," she said. "I'm not a fan of dieting, which is why I choose to eat healthy most of the time. I keep it in balance, so I don't have to crash diet. When I want to splurge I allow myself and don't beat myself up—I just make a plan to eat extra healthy the next day or work out."

2. She Swears By Spirulina

Jenna finds ways to add greens into her diet as often as possible. She’ll opt for things like coriander and parsley or spirulina. "It is alkalizing, it is like superfood for your blood, your oxygen and your cells," she said. "It's amazing." "Spirulina — the superfood you may or may not have heard of — comes from a blue-green algae plant found in oceans and salty lakes. Lauded for centuries for its high nutritional value and health benefits, it’s not just a passing health fad," says the Cleveland Clinic.

3. Not Surprising, She Loves To Dance

Jenna was a back-up dancer before starring in Step Up and she still loves to dance today. "I like going to a fun, upbeat class with loud music, like dance cardio," she said. "I grew up dancing, so I generally push myself a bit harder when I'm around a crowd.”

4. She’s In Touch With Her Roots

She likes dabbling in healthy recipes connected to her heritage. "I'm part Lebanese—my dad's family—so I grew up with tabouli," she said. "It's my favorite. I like to make things that will keep for a couple of days, and I can just grab and go,” she said.

5. She Loves Green Smoothies

She makes concoctions in the blender that help her stay full, fit, and even keep her skin and hair healthy. Her go to mix contains greens like spinach and kale mixed with lemon, banana, maybe a little pear, apple, a drizzle of cod liver oil, black sesame seeds, and water. "There’s a reason your mom tried to get you to eat spinach. In light of what dark leafy greens have to offer for health, you might want to willingly eat them. The best of the bunch include spinach, kale and collard greens, and here’s why: Any dark green means the vegetable is packed full of vitamin A, an antioxidant that serves as a huge booster to the immune system and healthy cell growth," says the Mayo Clinic.

Jenna Dewan started her career as a dancer, and worked for artists like Janet Jackson, Missy Elliott, and Kelly Clarkson. And she still makes time to dance today. Dewan posted a new reel on Instagram of herself dancing in different places. Dewan also wore a variety of outfits, including a green satin two-piece and a black swimsuit. She captioned the reel, “Me almost 24/7.” How does she stay so fit?

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."
