The actress also took to Instagram to reveal how focussing on the image of the Hindu goddess Lakshmi, “who in Hinduism represents wealth, fortune, love, beauty, Māyā (literally meaning “illusion” or “magic”), joy and prosperity”, makes her feel joyful. This joy is the greatest door for your inner beauty, said Hayak.

Earlier, Salma Hayek, celebrated for her roles in movies like Wild Wild West and Frida, expressed how she has been resorting to Yoga to stay fit while she quarantines herself inside her home due to the coronavirus outbreak. 

Taking to social media, the actress shared a picture of herself trying out some yoga poses on a table in the living room. She is seen doing Dhanurasana (Bow Pose), which is a common yoga pose done to attain flexibility in the body.

The American actress has been extremely vocal of how she does not get the time to hit the gym so she practices restorative yoga when she gets the time. “I don’t have time to exercise. I am working. I’ve had some 20-hour days,” she had once said. The Mexican beauty has revealed how restorative yoga helps her to tone her muscles without clenching them. You relax them and focus on the parts that need to be used, but never with tension. “If you’re aware of your body, you’d be surprised by the effect it (restorative yoga) can have,” she said.
