Gwyneth Paltrow does THIS to help relieve anxiety
Gwyneth Paltrow has a very unique way of relieving her anxiety.
The "Marty Supreme" star and Goop founder admitted that while she "can't really avoid" feeling anxious, she has her own tactics for trying to manage her emotions, which include, "shouting at the bushes."
In an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on Instagram, she wrote, "I can't really avoid anxiety, but I try to temper it with remembering things I am grateful for, breathing deeply, going for a walk and shouting at the bushes (it helps) and being good to myself."
A different follower asked the star how she avoids "over-functioning and burnout," and she gave another candid answer. "I have avoided neither. I'm over functioned and burnt out, but I'm trying to get a little bit better this year at that and really prioritizing sleep and boundaries around working and not working, but I have some work to do."
In November 2025, the Marvel star opened up on feeling like she's "pulled in lots of directions" and how even just a bad work email can be "a slap in the face".
Speaking on the Goop podcast, she shared, "I've lived a very intense life in the public eye for a really, really long time. And so I think whenever we're at the mercy of people's opinions and all the energy behind the opinions — I'm very sensitive, as most of us are — so I feel that and it kind of frays my nervous system."
Gwyneth, who gets support from her family, also pointed to the way her changing hormones are having an impact, saying, "I think also my hormonal phase of life, I have a lot of anxiety for the very first time in my life, which is just a symptom of hormonal changes. I think it's an estrogen dominance thing. It makes you really anxious ... So part of it is physiological, part of it is psychological, part of it's emotional and part of its public life.”
