1. She Is Grateful

Julianne’s positive attitude helps keep her in a good mental place. “What are three things you are grateful for today?” she asked her followers in her latest post. “This is one of the most powerful questions I ask myself as I start each day. Gratitude has the power to shift our mindset, which changes everything. It brings me perspective and inspires a mindset that anything is possible. I have so much gratitude for my sisters and the lessons they teach me through their lived experience.”

2. She Eats What Her Body Needs

Julianne stays away from gluten and animal products. “I sound so L.A. right now,” she said in a “What I Eat in a Day” video with Harper’s Bazaar, “but it’s because my body needs it. Because trust me, do I love flour, I love sugar, I love cookies, I love all the things. But I’m really just trying to focus on my health from the inside out.”

3. She Drinks Lemon Water

Julianne is one of many stars who start their day with a glass of warm lemon water. “This is how I start my morning every. single. day,” she said in an Instagram video. “Having a strong morning routine gives me a sense of stability and puts my mind at ease knowing that I’m waking up, cleansing my body and committing to my wellness.” She also told Harper’s Bazaar that pre-makes the drink the night before, which “usually consists of lukewarm temperature water with half of a lemon—and sitting overnight, really getting all of those juices flushed out in there.”

3. She Also Drinks Green Juice

Green juice is also on Julianne’s daily menu.“I usually find a way to do some sort of celery juice, or something that also gives me a little bit of sugar before I go do a quick workout,” she said. “Or I’ll do like, amino acids [vitamins] or something like that to give me that support, that energy that I’m looking for.” One of her favorite green juice recipes? “I usually like it a little sweeter, less bitter, so I put in a green apple, some spinach, kale. Again, if I want it sweeter, I’ll put some carrots in. But I love ginger, and lemon too, so I’ll put that in,” she told Elle in 2016. “Cucumber, celery, anything green, really. Sometimes I’ll add beets too, depending on my mood. And then I’ll go work out, it just depends.”

4. Moderation Is Key

Julianne makes sure to maintain moderation when it comes to her diet. “If I could give you any words of encouragement with what you eat, it’s enjoy yourself, everything in moderation, and if you love your body and love what you’re putting into your body, your body’s gonna know,” she explained to Harper’s Bazaar. “So if you’re gonna have a drink, if you’re gonna have a yummy sweet tooth, enjoy it. Take the pleasure in it.”

5. Dance Is Her Favorite Workout

Dance strengthens muscles that I didn’t even know I had - physically, emotionally and energetically 💪🏼😊✨ I’m feeling so grateful for my daily #KINRGY practice which brings me strength and power - internally and externally! Connecting with the elements and moving intuitively is what it’s all about! The more I move, the more I feel myself in #flow and fully expressed,” she explained in a recent Instagram post.

Demi Moore, at 58, is as body confident as ever, posing in a swimsuit with her daughters in a new campaign for Andie swimwear. “LDW ready, with @andieswim,” she captioned the photo on Instagram, referring to the long weekend. How does the mom stay so fit while being so busy? Read on to see 5 ways Demi Moore stays in shape and the photos that prove they work—and to get beach-ready yourself, don't miss these essential 30 Best-Ever Celebrity Bikini Photos!

1. She’s Happy to Be Where She Is

Demi's approach to life? "It's about embracing and no longer looking for what's wrong and really being in acceptance of everything. Gravity is going in directions that I'm not so fond of. I can look in the mirror occasionally and say 'you're lying, I don't look like that.' but the reality is the comfort I feel in my skin is the greatest gift. I wouldn't trade it. I'm just happy to be where I am," she told InStyle.

2. She Knows Things Change

“Things do change,” Demi told W Magazine not too long ago. “The biggest difference, I think, is that I’m not in nearly as good shape physically as I have been before, and I have skin going in a direction that I would prefer it not go. There are things that just come with getting older. But I think my big mantra for this year is about acceptance. I was reading this book that was written around 1919, if I am remembering correctly, and it was very of its day. It was discussing all the ‘female’ concerns. There were some horrific suggestions on how to take care of yourself, including putting some kind of acid on your skin. But there was one thing I took away, because I think it’s true—the author said not to frown because at a certain point it will stick. And what speaks to me here is that I do believe that when we hold upset, anger, hurt, pain or bitterness, it ages us and we wear it. That isn’t to say we are always going to feel happy. But it’s important not to hold on to things.”

3. She Was Once a Workout Obsessive

When getting ready for certain revealing scenes in movies, “I cut out carbs, I ran, and I biked, and I worked out on every machine imaginable. I didn’t feel like I could stop exercising,” she wrote in her book. “It was my job to fit into that unforgiving military uniform I’d be wearing in two months in A Few Good Men. Getting in shape for that movie launched the obsession with working out that would consume me over the next five years. I never dared let up.”

4. She’s Used the Mirror

Now Demi is more likely to use the Mirror, the workout device that is an actual mirror on your wall, with built-in videos that play on it. "15 min at level 1 that’s doable … right? I am stalling!" Demi wrote once in a post. "This is going to be my next jam. Okay, here I go, wish me luck."

5. She Loves Andie Swimwear

"Demi was an early investor," Andie's founder and CEO, Melanie Travis, told InStyle. "We've always talked about what would make sense to do together, and then back in December of 2020 — in anticipation of a successful vaccine rollout and then what would hopefully be a great summer of friends and family, being able to travel, and get together again, across the United States — we felt like this could be the perfect summer to do a campaign together."

Julianne Hough is making a splash – in her swimsuit. In a new social media post the dancer and actress does her best Ariel, showing off her amazing body in a bathing suit while singing the hit song Part of Your World from the Disney movie, The Little Mermaid. “Channeling my inner little mermaid for Disney Night on @dancingwiththestars this week!!” she captioned the Instagram video with her millions of followers. “You’re a real life Ariel,” one of them commented. “Beautiful,” added another. How does the 35-year-old prioritize her health? Celebwell rounded up some of her top self-care habits.

1. She Takes Baths

“I love to make every moment a luxury experience,” Hough told Women’s Health. “Whether it's in the bathtub and having bubbles and meditation music playing and my crystals and whatever it is, or I'm in the shower and I'm just rushing out through the day, at least I know that I'm being taken care of in the best way possible.”

2. She Does Body Scans

Hough is also a fan of regular body scans, a guided meditation practice that has you lie down, stay aware of your breath, and mindfully soften each part of your body, from head to toe. “I love meditating and doing energy work,” Hough told Pure Wow. “It really helps me get out of my head and into my body.”

3. She Lights Candles and Burns Incense

“I love making sure my environment is like, candles lit or incense burning, just to create the experience and get my mindset in a really calming way, so I can self-regulate before I get crazy again with work stuff,” Hough told Women’s Health about another favorite ritual.

4. She Focuses on Recovery

After her workout, which is generally “Pilates, yoga, working out with a trainer… it keeps everything fresh and helps me fuel my body's different needs,” Hough maintains that “Recovery is also a second workout to me," she told Shape. "We always think about the fact that we have to push, push, push, but without that recovery, it leads to burnout. It's about that balance. I think we haven't focused enough on recovery in the athletic or the artistic athlete (dancers)."

5. She Uses Therabody Tools

Hough uses Therabody products to help in her recovery process. "Ever since I started using Therabody products, I recognized the mobility and the freedom within my muscles and just the relaxation and the nurturing that I couldn't necessarily give myself. Once you use them, there's no way that you can go back to not doing any kind of recovery," she told Shape.

Julianne Hough is feeling limitless. The dancer/actress/entrepreneur just posted a photo of herself in a bikini on Instagram, looking fierce. “My intention in this #NewMoon is to break free from limitations my mind has set on what’s possible with my healing and growth. I’m cutting cords from past relationships, judgements, and feelings of betrayal and abandonment.” she wrote in the caption. “This particular moon in the sign of #Virgo is an invitation for all of us to detox and clear out space - both energetically and physically. What’s left when these are released? Just my heart, flowing and floating freely in a state of surrender and movement.” How does the Hough stay so fit while staying so busy?

1. She Mixes Things Up

“At least three times a week, I try to do weight training or something like Body by Simone, Tracy Anderson, or Anna Kaiser,” said Hough to InStyle. “I also try to do yoga twice a week, which is almost more like active recovery. Then I throw in a SoulCycle class, and I'll go running or hiking on the weekend and try to get the dogs out. My brother and I are going back out on tour this spring, too, so I'm going to try to do dance classes on Monday, Thursday, and Saturday. My step count's gonna be legit.”

2. She Has Tried Energy Healing

Hough received a somatic energy healing treatment at Davos. “Some traditions believe an invisible energy force flows through your body, and when this energy flow is blocked or out of balance, you can become sick,” says the Mayo Clinic. “This energy has different names, such as chi, prana and life force. The goal of these therapies is to unblock or re-balance your energy force. Energy therapies include acupuncture, qi gong, healing touch and reiki.”

3. She Keeps Vegan and Gluten-Free

“I sound so L.A. right now,” she said in video for Harper’s Bazaar. “But it’s because my body needs it. Because trust me, do I love flour, I love sugar, I love cookies, I love all the things. But I’m really just trying to focus on my health from the inside out.”

4. She Steps Up

“When I hit 10,000 steps, I know that I definitely did what I set out to do for the day,” Hough told InStyle. “But really, any number of steps that you’re able to get in is great. Sometimes it’s so hard to get up and move around enough—especially when you’re traveling and flying on a plane. I’ve found that the best thing you can do is go to Disneyland, because you literally get about 20,000 steps in a day.”

5. She’s Outspoken About Endometriosis Awareness

Hough has the reproductive health condition endometriosis. “I didn’t want it to define who I was or have it be something that held me back personally, in my relationships, or in my work,” Hough told SELF. But now? “Knowledge is power. Honestly, in the last couple years, I’ve seen how many people really don’t know anything about endometriosis. I didn’t have any knowledge about the disease until I got it. That’s why it was important for me to use my platform and my own story to let other women know that they’re definitely not alone. The more we talk about it, the more we’re empowered by it rather than it being in control of us. The more I started to know and acknowledge all of me, the more I realized, ‘Wow I really suppressed that part of me.’ It’s hurting me, but it’s also hurting all these other people that could have more knowledge about it if I started to use my voice. That’s why SpeakENDO.com and speaking about it in general is so great for women."
