Princess Kate<\/a> has many pastimes\u2014photography<\/a>, gardening<\/a>, baking<\/a>. However, in the wake of her recent cancer diagnosis<\/a> and remission status<\/a>, it seems the princess is slotting in a few activities specifically focused on her health, including one that\u2019s beloved by her brother-in-law, Prince Harry, and his wife, Duchess Meghan.<\/p>\n

Photographer and light artist Chris Levine recently revealed<\/a> to The Daily Mail that he\u2019s been teaching the Princess of Wales how to meditate. \u201cI think I\u2019ve said too much!\u201d Levine quickly confessed after sharing the insider information.<\/p>\n

Levine has long been connected to the royal family, having snapped one of the most-famous portraits<\/a> of Queen Elizabeth II back in 2008. So, it makes sense that he would be a trusted guide for the Princess of Wales.<\/p>\n

The Princess of Wales has recently started meditating, according to information revealed by a royal insider.<\/p>\n

Kate certainly isn\u2019t the first member of the family to turn to this relaxing practice.<\/p>\n

For over a decade, sister-in-law Meghan has been a strong advocate for meditation. Back in 2015, when her lifestyle blog The Tig was still active, she shared a post<\/a> that read: \u201cLast week marked the one year anniversary of my relationship with meditation, something I found endlessly daunting at first (the thoughts, the distractions, the boredom of it), but soon became the quietude that rocked my world. I can\u2019t put my finger on the why or the how, but I will tell you this much, for me\u2026I am just happier. And meditation has much to do with that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Before Prince Archie was born, Meghan\u2019s husband, Harry, turned to the practice too, and in the years since, meditation has acted as a way for him to de-stress.<\/p>\n

During a panel with BetterUp in 2022, Harry revealed<\/a>: \u201cThe self-care is the first thing that drops away [when you are experiencing burnout].\u201d However, he said that he tries to spend 30 to 45 minutes every morning with himself. \u201cOkay, one of the kids has gone to school. The other one\u2019s taking a nap. There\u2019s a break in our program. It\u2019s like, right, it\u2019s either for workout, take the dog for a walk, get out in nature, maybe meditate,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Kate has also long been dedicated to promoting mental health, and just this year, she and Prince William teamed up<\/a> with the mental health charity Norfolk and Waveney Mind to fund a new pilot program that \u201c[boosts] mental health support for the rural and farming communities of Northwest Norfolk.\u201d<\/p>\n

Advocating for peace and wellness certainly runs in the family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Princess Kate has many pastimes\u2014photography, gardening, baking.
