The Clothing designer Nikki Lund from Beverly Hills posed in some of her favorite moves, like the Downward Dog and Sun Salute.
“Yoga has helped me a lot in balancing my energy and embracing my body,” the blonde beauty shared. ‘And now I’m back in my skinny jeans!’
‘I feel less and less anxious. I can deal with anxiety and it makes me feel calmer and more relaxed. I have been working non-stop and no matter what, I take the time to stop and focus my energy and mind on the present moment.”

She then added, “I’ve been trying with a capital letter to be more aware and more present. Enjoy every moment. I’m always worried about something.
“It’s in my DNA and as a mother I have a lot of mom guilt anyway – so this helps me focus and center myself so I can be more present,” said the star, who dated Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi .
‘I also meditate now and it has helped me embrace the positive aspects of my life when I naturally look for ‘OMG, what’s wrong now?’
‘It really gives me a bit of pleasure and I feel better after yoga. Besides the great exercise, it is also great for the mind. MINDFULNESS is the key.’
This comes after she talked about her 6/1 Diet.
“It means I eat very healthy every six days, and one day I enjoy something naughty, like an ice cream cone or truffle fries,” she told DailyMail.com.
‘I came up with it because I love junk food so much that I could literally eat it every day of my life. So it was the only way I could think of to control myself.

‘I feel less and less anxious. I can deal with anxiety and it makes me feel calmer and more relaxed. I have been working non-stop and no matter what, I take the time to stop and focus my energy and mind on the present moment,” the model added.
‘All day I have low carbs, high protein, salads and vegetables – I love it because I add garlic and olive oil, it’s tasty. But after seven days I thought: “Let me eat already!” Then I eat a burger with a bun or I eat a cinnamon roll or ice cream.
‘It’s the only system that has worked for me. It’s like you work hard and then you reward yourself,” Paris Hilton’s friend said.
Staying in shape is important for her energy levels, she added.
‘I love looking slim, don’t get me wrong, but the main reason I eat so healthy is because I need my strength for everything I do.’
Here she is seen on the porch of her Nashville home; she moved last year to work on her singing career
Not only is she the mother of her young son Hendrix — yes, he’s named after guitarist Jimi Hendrix — whom she shares with her partner, musician Jeff Phillips, but she also has an eponymous clothing line sold at Nordstrom.
Nikki’s designs have been worn by Miley Cyrus, Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Demi Lovato, Brandy, Brad Paisley and Blake Shelton.
And Lund has a vibrant singing career.
Last year she bought a house in Nashville where she will spend part of the year working on her singing career. She also has a house in Los Angeles.
“I go back and forth between Nashville and Los Angeles,” she said.
‘I grew up in Los Angeles, but have always been a big fan of country singers like Dolly Parton and Chris Stapleton. For the past few years I’ve been working on country songs. I love the feeling, the tempo, the depth – I find comfort in country music.”
She has a new manager in Nashville to guide her new sound.
“I am happy with my team and feel like I can now spread my wings,” added Lund, who is part Scandinavian.
Nikki launched her music career in 2018 with the hits Love Overdose and This Is It after already creating a well-received clothing line.
The star also dated U&I.
She also said she likes designing clothes because it’s fun to “create something out of nothing.”
‘It takes focus and the ability to let go. I love exploring every compartment of my soul, almost as if I’m discovering myself all over again for the first time. A double reality of the artist’s heart: the here and now and a fantasy world,” she noted.
And she also said, “Everything is a balancing act, a give and take in life. And there is no judgement.”
