Jennifer Aniston Opened Up About Her Relationship With Her Body in Her 50s

At age 55, Jennifer Aniston is more confident in her body than ever before. In a new interview with Allure published on Thursday (January 2), the actress got candid about her relationship with her body, revealing that they "really love each other" nowadays. 

“We’ve got to love our bodies. It's doing the best it can. It's been with us since the day we started, so we can't be too hard on it,” she said, before sharing how she adopted that mindset in the first place.

“I was working on a movie and there was an older man on set. I’d seen him on a couple of different jobs and he was just working, working, working. I go, ‘You are impressive. I mean, you just never stop,’" Aniston explained. "And he said, ‘I just don’t let the old man in.’ There was something about that.” 

She continued, “Of course, we're all going to grow older, but how can we thrive as we grow older? And that is about giving your body the attention that it deserves." 

Aniston revealed that while she works out at least four times a week, she didn't always have the same discipline when she was younger. "For me personally, I loved my 30s, but my 20s were nothing. I was a nightmare. I didn't understand working out until my 30s and 40s," she said.

Today, the Friends alum approaches aging "with positivity and gratitude" as she feels there's no other choice. “We are still here. What's the alternative? I'm trying not to think about growing older. I try not to think about age. The world will always be there telling us what your age is and what women should do in society when you're this or that,” she added.

"I’m a big believer in trying not to be hard on yourself because the world is so mean right now and so aggressive and negative," Aniston explained. "So why would we do it to ourselves?"
