Jennifer Aniston’s Secrets to a Happy Life

Transcript

00:0030 years after her breakout role in Friends, Jennifer Aniston remains as revelant and gorgeous

00:05as ever.

00:06Us Weekly breaks down the biggest lessons she's learned along the way in this week's

00:11cover story.

00:12Being one of the most famous women in the world came at a price for Jennifer, who was

00:15just 25 years old when she became a household name on Friends.

00:19Since the mid-90s, the public has been fascinated by her — her hair, her body, her family,

00:25her romantic interests, and her most personal decisions.

00:29A source tells Us Weekly,

00:30"...she isn't a fan of the spotlight, and she doesn't love being famous.

00:34She lives her life as low-key as anyone in her position can."

00:38As a second source,

00:39"...Jen's relationship with the spotlight has evolved.

00:42She's more pragmatic about it.

00:44She's learned over the years who she can trust."

00:46Jennifer's tight-knit group of friends is small, but it's solid.

00:50A source tells Us,

00:51"...friendships are central to Jen's life and provide her with emotional support.

00:55She's kept her circle very small for many years and hasn't added too many people to

01:00her close confidants."

01:01And her remaining Friends co-stars still feel like they're a family, adding that they stay

01:06in touch in a text thread in which they often reminisce about their late co-star, Matthew

01:10Perry.

01:11And her mental well-being is just as important as her physical health.

01:15She meditates every morning, limits her screen time — especially before bedtime — and

01:20loves a good hot bath.

01:22She said back in 2023,

01:23"...we don't allow ourselves the time to do the things we need to for self-care, because

01:28we're so on the go-go-go.

01:31Take 20 minutes to turn everything off and just quiet your mind, and it's not easy, but

01:36it does help."

01:37Some wise words from Jennifer Aniston.
