Different generations of celebrities are embracing the health benefits of yoga, ranging from "Glee" star Lea Michele and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine to veteran actress Andie MacDowell, who said in a recent interview that these exercises taught her the secrets of self healing.
"Yoga's helped everything," she said, as quoted by Yoga Magazine. "It's helped my outlook, how I interact with people, it's made me more conscious, it's helped me be able to focus, make better decisions, think on my feet. I don't know what I'd do without it. It's my sanctuary."
MacDowell, who is known for her roles in Four Weddings and a Funeral, Groundhog Day and the recent remake of Footloose, said that after 25 years, yoga is not just a physical exercise for her, but also a form of spirituality.
