Turning 43, model Christy Turlington achieves balance with yoga and Ayurveda

Model Christy Turlington, born January 2, 1969, has faced many challenges in her career, including battling weight gain. Psychology Today magazine reports that Christy "has had to face tobacco addiction, illness and death." And when Christy stopped smoking and then gained 10 pounds, the modeling industry was cruel. Christy's response: "It led me to rethink my career. I would rather be 10 pounds heavier, tobacco-free and happy."
Now, according to Psychology Today, Christy has turned to yoga, meditation, and Ayurveda to help her heal and stay strong. In an interview, she said: "Yoga has been the best tool for managing stress and life's challenges. Everything from my studies to my father's death was eased by my practice of it."
As for Ayurveda, it has enhanced Christy's diet "and also the way that I respond to the world and the world to me, has gradually changed."But she hasn't given up modeling completely: "I haven't left modeling completely; I just took a step out, and I now have the rare luxury of picking and choosing how to spend my days," Christy added.
