She also has to exercise for her career: “I’m always evolving and looking for things that keep me excited and motivated,” she explained. “I’m not afraid to challenge myself so I’m open to pushing myself, which is what I’m doing right now as I rehearse for my new album.

She’s onto something.

According to MentalHealth.org, ‘Research shows that people who exercise regularly have better mental health and emotional well-being, and lower rates of mental illness.

“Exercise appears to reduce the risk of developing mental illness.

“It also seems to help in the treatment of some mental health conditions, such as depression and anxiety.”

Lopez then added to UsWeekly writer Meredith Nardino: “When you strike a good balance through determination and focus, we naturally strive to be the best version of ourselves.”

Lopez claimed she gets moving “first thing in the morning,” which is often before 5 a.m. when it’s still dark, no matter what her “busy schedule” has in store.

“I try to make good decisions and balance my time,” he added to the site.

“She knows that working hard to exercise is part of it.”

When her career first took off, she paid less attention to stress.

‘There was a time in my life when I used to sleep 3-5 hours a night. I would be on set all day and in the studio all night and traveling and shooting videos on the weekends. I was almost 20 years old and I thought I was invincible,” she wrote on On the JLo in July 2022.

“Until one day, I was sitting in a trailer, and all the work and stress that it brought with it, along with the lack of sleep to mentally recover, took a toll on me.”

Then she felt ‘frozen’.

‘I thought I was losing my mind. … Now I know it was a classic exhaustion panic attack, but I had never heard the term at the time.”

After consulting a doctor, the New York native said she “realized how serious the consequences could be of ignoring what my body and mind needed to be healthy, and that’s where my journey to wellness began.” .
