Shailene Woodley Graces The Cover Of SHAPE Magazine
Shailene Woodley is on the cover of the new issue of SHAPE magazine. The actress is on the cover to promote her new film, The Last Letter from Your Lover. Highlights from her interview are below.
On her relationship with football star Aaron Rogers: “Starting a relationship where you immediately move in with someone — because it’s a pandemic and you can’t just get on a plane and go back and forth on weekends — taught us a lot about each other very quickly. We jumped in headfirst and got some of the sticky bits out of the way early. “I was by myself with my dog and didn’t see anyone for three months. It forced me to be still and quiet.”
On staying mentally healthy: “One thing I really prioritize is sleep, and it has changed my life genuinely. Another is focusing on how I can nurture and help my self-talk. When I notice negative self-talk happening, how I can sit with it and be friends with it instead of constantly feeling I’m in this rat race of not good enough, not this enough. Becoming a witness to it instead of a victim to it has also dramatically improved my health. Plus, I use astrology: It’s simply a tool to give ourselves permission, to accept ourselves and understand ourselves more. The minute I understand that I was built to think this way, instead of judging myself for it, I have acceptance for myself. It’s an allowance to have more self-compassion.”
