She Moves

"All you have to do is move," Sharon told Vogue in 2021 about her simply approach to fitness. "People think that you have to go to the gym and you have to do 3,000 pounds of weight all the time, but you don't. You have to move your body, and add a little bit of resistance. Periodically throughout the day, I just move my body." When she is on set she does leg lifts and back kicks and then pops down on the ground and do some jackknifes. "Also, I do all my 'arm jazz' with these lead weights. Pushing upwards for 15 minutes with a lead weight in your hand makes a lot of difference. I have little arm strap-on weight bracelets too, and I put them on while I'm on my computer or at my desk and just leave them on all day because you'd be amazed how much working out you can do on your computer with a couple of pounds on your arms.. These little things make a big difference."

Sharon does daily check-ins with herself to make sure she is on the right track. "We have to ask ourselves, 'Have we contributed to our body wellness, our mental wellness, and our spiritual wellness today?'" Stone told Vogue. "And if we have not, we have to ask which of those areas needs to be cleaned up."

"I'm also very big on those late-night television advertisements, like, 'Oh, look. You can buy this thing.' I find them to be quite successful. I have a little plastic thing that looks like a skateboard that's bent that you balance on and cuts your center core. I have the Suzanne Somers ThighMaster, and frankly, it is sensational," Sharon confessed to Vogue. "I put that between my legs while I'm watching TV, and my kids and all their teenage friends think it's hilarious but they do it too. They sit around with me and do it with their arms, finding a way to do their biceps and their triceps. It is the kind of thing you can throw in your suitcase because it doesn't take up any space."

She Meditates

Sharon stresses the importance of getting your zen on. "I listen to this meditation by Kiva called the Green Tara chant that I like a lot. Usually, I just sit at my meditation table in front of my bedroom couch, ring my bowl, and read from my texts. I have a variety of different Buddhist stuff, including a Buddhist book of lessons and these Buddhist scriptures by Bukkyo Dendo Kyokai that I look at. I also have different crystals that I like. Sometimes I chant. Also, Russell Brand has a really great site and he'll do a little bit of Kundalini yoga. I usually break out from whatever I'm doing and go sit down and do that one exercise sometime during my workday," Sharon told Vogue.

She Eats and Drinks Clean

Stone explains that leading up to her second COVID-19 vaccine, she "had to have the cleanest" system. "So I just did tofu and vegetables and only clear flat water. Typically, I don't have a lot of dairy and I go through periods where I just don't have it for a few weeks at a time when I'm trying to clear up my skin or I don't feel like my intestinal tract is as clean as I want it to be. I really like dark chocolate and stuff. At night, I usually eat some dark chocolate, but I just cut it all out. I cut out all the sugars, specifically. And I didn't even drink carbonated water. For dinner, I ate black rice and kale and yams, and maybe avocado or hummus and tofu, and then once a week I had poached eggs," she told Vogue.

She Avoids Alcholol

Sharon is not a drinker.. "I drank so little to begin with. But seven years ago, I was training, and I wanted to get really cut up," she told Shape, per Hello. "I looked at Madonna — we're the same age — and I asked my trainer, 'What am I not doing? Find out what she's doing!' She came back and said, 'I don't think she drinks any alcohol.' So I decided to try zero for three months. And I saw a huge difference!"

She Paints

In an interview with The Art Newspaper, Sharon revealed that after Hollywood "abandoned" her, she got into painting, which has been incredibly therapeutic. "I bought real brushes and I started to regain my control, my brush movements," she says. "I painted and painted and painted, and I refound myself. I refound my heart. I refound my centre."
