Finds Her Center in Family
Mary-Louise Parker recently discovered Transcendental Meditation after putting relaxation exercises on the back burner while raising her kids, William and Caroline. “I was a super-regular meditator before and when I had kids, I just wasn’t. I kind of lost my way,” she told Closer at the David Lynch Foundation’s Change Begins Within: Healing the Hidden Wounds of
War at The Plaza hotel in NYC on Oct. 18. But now, she’s feeling more centered, especially when her kids are getting along. “Even when they gang up on me, as long as they’re with one another it makes me happy.” She also credits her friend Susan Sarandon with influencing her parenting path. “She’s compassionate,” Mary-Louise said. “She goes to an orphanage in Nepal. She’ll sit with refugees. She’s my son’s godmother, and she’s wonderful.”
