“I’m feeling so much better at 43 than at 23,” Gisele shared, according to People. “It’s amazing. I feel so much better — 40s are amazing.”

Gisele said that’s “excited” to be working with Gaia Herbs as their new wellness ambassador since she has been using their supplements for decades.

“When I went to visit Gaia Herbs’ farm, it was incredible because I felt really good about the choices I’ve been making,” Gisele explained. “I was like, ‘Good! I haven’t been intoxicating myself for the last 20 years, I feel better about myself.’ Imagine if I wasn’t, it would’ve been a problem. I would’ve noticed when I’m like 50 or 60.’”

Also during the panel, Gisele talked about how “intense” she is when it comes to her wellness routine, which is different from how she took care of herself when she was younger.

“I meditate everyday, I exercise every day,” Gisele shared. “I’m just so grateful I have this body, I truly am. Now I’ve learned — because I wasn’t so good in my 20s or my teens — I realized my body is my temple and I really want to enjoy it. So for me, moving my body is huge.”

“This is why I wake up at 5 a.m. This is why I’ve meditated for over 20 years. And when I don’t, I feel a huge difference,” Gisele added. “I haven’t drank alcohol in over two years and it’s amazing how much more clear [I feel].”

In another recent interview, Gisele revealed what she’s learned from her divorce from Tom Brady.
