Always looking radiant both on and off the red carpet, Jennifer has often hailed yoga as one of her favourite exercises. "Yoga kind of helps you prepare for everything, honestly," the actress told E! News. "It's like meditation. It sort of just allows anything that's coming at you at the end of the day to be kind of doable."

The Iron Man actress has always been vocal about her love of yoga, trying all different types including an aerial yoga class. The star even admitted she wakes up at 4:30am every morning to practice her exercises. "I'm not really a morning person at all," she told InStyle. "It's just sheer determination. I'm very strict with myself. When I practice six days a week and eat clean food, I feel much better."

The Australian beauty often shares snaps and videos of her Kundalini yoga sessions on Instagram, and has also revealed that she often practises mediation. "I like to start my meditation off with remembering everything I'm grateful for. I then sit and say my mantra inwardly for 20mins," she admitted on her beauty brand Kora Organics' Instagram page.

While the star has famously tried a wide range of different types of yoga, she admitted she'd taken a break for a couple of years but was starting to get back into the sport. "I started doing yoga again, which I haven't done in years and years and years," she said. "I'm so used to exercising with music playing very loud, and when you do yoga, you're just listening to your breath."
