'It hit me that I have to practice loving myself the same way I practice acting.' — .KekePalmer
."I've learned over the years that to keep my sanity, and to physically keep this machine running, I have to pour into myself as often as I can," she tells WH. This isn't the first time Palmer has spoken out about prioritizing yourself, especially as it relates to validation. She recently tweeted,"people that seek outside validation, can't understand a person that gets it from the inside.
Palmer admitted the original goal of yoga was to use it as a form of exercise."It was like, 'I want my body to look good because one day I want to do action movies,'" she tells WH."It was a superficial start, which I think is fine. The entry point doesn't always have to be so serious." But with time and practice, Palmer experienced a series of epiphanies."I realized I'm not supposed to be competing with my classmates. I'm supposed to be getting into my own zone. I discovered that mind, body, and soul appreciation don't have to result in a six-pack." This led to a reflection on how discipline is a core value in Palmer's career and how she could apply the same level of dedication to self-care.
Now, Palmer finds time to work out in short bursts to accommodate her packed schedule. Besides yoga, she tells WH,"My body responds incredibly well to Pilates." Her favorite is the , with videos of yoga-infused Pilates routines and meditations that range from 10 to 40 minutes long."It's so smart because sometimes 10 minutes is all the time we have." Palmer says.
