The more guarded you are, the more people want to say 'Oh, are you hiding something?'

We eat really well. It is my job, as their mother, our job as parents, to feed them well so that they're healthy so that they are very well behaved.

My husband knows I'm not a big material person - we're very lucky to have lovely things, but I want a foot rub or to just sit and talk.

My thing is about being authentic and when people say I'm not being authentic, it hurts my feelings.

Do people think we eat, like, gold cereal in the morning? We're really simple, simple, simple people. We grocery shop; we wash our own dishes. We do most of the things that most people do.

I'm kind of fine with running around during the day and not sitting down and having a meal and just snacking, snacking, snacking until night when I can just focusing on having a meal.

The moment when I try to make my kids line up, which I will try sometimes, it never works out.

You know you look bad when people start saying 'Are you ok? You look really tired.'

Teaching is very fulfilling because every day I go home feeling like I helped people.

I am a teacher. I get up in front of large groups of people and teach them how to do yoga - I work one-on-one with them.

When I'm in labor, I like it to be very 'namaste.' I can't take care of other people at that time.

I think I rest in the moment of not being able to rest. I rest by trying to make the moment as efficient as possible.

I plan my workouts around my blowouts and often retouch the root and do curls if it gets messy after a workout.

The one thing that I won't sacrifice is taking care of my kids. I want to make sure I fulfill that commitment.

On a typical day, walking down the street, there are a couple of photographers and then there get to be more and more. It's the most awkward thing, because you have to pretend that they're not there and it drives you nuts.

I don't know if I have the right answers, but I can tell you that I try to not respond in a moment of being angry.

There's nothing wrong with me, and I'm not going to apologize for the amount of time that I spent in two countries and I'm not going to apologize for the fact that I speak two languages and I'm not going to apologize for the fact that I have two versions of my name.

I focus a lot on hydrating with coconut water; as much as I love it, I limit my coffee intake and replace it with matcha, which I find is kinder on my skin.

Having a miscarriage would hurt if I went through it in silence and it would hurt if I lose the pregnancy in front of everybody, I realized.

I understand what it can feel like when people are bullying you, and you can't just seem to catch a break, and people don't see who you are. And people completely paint their own picture. And you're supposed to zip it and just go along with whatever they say.
