On setting a healthy example for her daughters:
"I don't even own a scale. I have two young girls, and I wouldn't want them to see me weighing myself all the time. I don't think it sends the right message."

On powers of yoga:
"Not only are you strengthening your muscles and releasing tension, but yoga also gives you a mind-body experience. When you're really focused on your breathing, you're able to clear your head and all the worries of everyday life go out the window. I love that feeling of being connected with my own body. It's also incredibly calming. If I'm stuck in traffic or have a bad moment in my day, I got back to my yoga practice and breathe. Sometimes I solve a problem that was bothering me like deciding on whether to take a role in a movie. There is something about breathing into all of the tense places in your body and releasing them that frees your mind."

On shedding the baby weight:
"I had to shoot 'Confessions of a Shopaholic' about three months after I gave birth to Olive, so the producer [Jerry Bruckheimer] hired a trainer to work with me three times a week. That was both inspirational and trying because I didn't want to let the trainer down. After I had my second daughter, I slowly lost the weight by breastfeeding, hiking Runyon Canyon, and working with a trainer every couple of weeks."
