Working Out Helped Combat Depression: Celina Jaitly

Bollywood actress Celina Jaitly has recently written a long tweet on the importance of mental health whilst touching key moments from her life and story of personal loss and deep grief.

She writes, “I found I was more confident when I stopped being someone else’s definition of beautiful and started being my own. The difference between who you are and who you want to be is what you do. My fitness journey after two consecutive twin pregnancies has been quite a graph. I was dealing with my mind and body who were behaving as two entirely different entities. I would work on my mind and body would give up, but whenever I worked on my body my mind remained stable and elevated. Working out helped combat my phases of depression following my parents & baby’s loss during my second twin pregnancy”.

“I did not hire a team of trainers to help me, I worked on educating myself in sports science, as well as taking advantage of my #austrian alpine outdoors during Covid … It took a lot of work and now some results are showing and I am sharing them to inspire you not to give up on yourselves. Signing off with love, strength and power!!”, added Celina.
