Los Angeles, Dec 16 (NationPress) Hollywood star Amanda Seyfried is looking forward to a healthier and more fulfilling decade as she enters her 40s. The actress marked her significant birthday on December 3 and has shared her vision for the upcoming years.

According to a report from ‘Female First UK’, Amanda aims to be more compassionate towards herself in this new chapter.

When asked about her expectations for her 40s, she revealed to Us Weekly, “It looks sweaty. It looks less full of judgment from myself. It looks healthier in a lot of ways, emotionally, hopefully”.

As a devoted mother to Nina, aged eight, and Thomas Jr., aged five, with her husband Thomas Sadoski, she emphasizes the importance of living in the present.

She expressed, “I also know that life is fragile and life is short, and I’m getting closer to an understanding of how important each day is to be present for”.

In her latest role in ‘The Testament of Ann Lee’, where she portrays the pivotal Shakers leader, Amanda shared that this musical drama has “completely” transformed her life.

She stated, “Curiosity is the best part of life, and you’re never, ever gonna see anything like this again. I mean, not for a while. I think we’re talking about a real historical figure that most of us don’t even know about, and her story is pretty radical. This changed my life as a musician as well, not as an actor, but as a musician. It’s completely revolutionised how I relate to music and myself. “You’re not gonna believe the fact that you’re gonna get these shaker hymns stuck in your head and you’re gonna want to hear them again and again”.

The Housemaid actress has also affirmed her readiness to embrace aging, attributing her confidence to the extensive therapy she has undergone.

She mentioned to Who What Wear, “I know life is harder the older you get, but I also know that I'm pretty prepped because I've done a lot of work in the decade of my 30s. I've done a lot of couples therapy. I've done a lot of therapy alone. I've had insane amounts of conversations with psychologists and friends who are psychologists that I feel like I have a lot of self-knowledge. It's not everything, but it certainly goes a long way”.

Having achieved significant success in her career, Amanda is eager to continue pushing her boundaries.

She articulated, “I feel like I have to keep choosing things that terrify me, within reason, right? I'm not gonna jump off a cliff or jump out of an airplane, but I need to sink my teeth into something that is really scary because I know I can do it, and I know I'll be better for it”.
