Kate Moss is in her self-care era, according to an interview with The Times on Saturday.

These days, instead of partying it up, the 49-year-old model focuses on wellness and healing. Moss practices moonbathing — an Ayurvedic ritual of placing oneself under the moonlight to absorb its energy, she told The Times.

She also keeps healing crystals and says her favorites are rose quartz and melonite, per The Times. Rose quartz is said to represent love and compassion, while melonite is believed to have grounding and protective properties.

Moss told The Times that she even "charges" her crystals when the full moon is out.

"I put all my crystals on a tray and put them outside in the garden," the model said. "Just cleansing the crystal, charging the crystals."

And that's not all: Moss is also big on transcendental meditation — a form of meditation that involves repeating a personalized mantra for 10 to 15 minutes a day, per The Times. In the mornings, she even recites affirmations to herself such as "embrace the unknown" and "trust the universe and it will lead the way."

Moss isn't the only celebrity who's into crystals or meditation.

Crystals have been popular among celebrities for years: Kim Kardashian posted photos of her crystals way back in 2017, while the Olsen twins gave them out in goody bags at their fashion show in 2018.

Even Lizzo told Vogue that she meditated with crystals to help her get through the early days of the pandemic in 2020.

And transcendental meditation isn't just for Hollywood stars, it's also popular among Wall Street bankers — Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, is a notable fan.

Despite Moss' attempts to lead a healthier life, she admits that there's just one bad habit that she can't seem to kick.

"I still smoke occasionally," she told The Times.

In the mid-1990s, Moss was the fashion It Girl thanks to her waifish look, different from the typical look of the glamorous supermodels of that era.

Throughout her modeling career, she was a tabloid fixture thanks to her high-profile relationships, hard-partying lifestyle, and a cocaine scandal.
