Orlando Bloom sells $7M Beverly Hills home weeks after Katy Perry split, then drops bombshell about emotional ‘trigger' and therapy
Orlando Bloom apparently sold his $7 million Beverly Hills home not long after breaking up with Katy Perry. However, there is more to the real estate deal than meets the eye, Bloom's emotional reckoning and therapy journey after a painful breakup. Bloom said he had been going to therapy to deal with past trauma and relationship triggers while he was letting go of the house. His lore is all about heartbreak, healing, and Hollywood real estate. Orlando Bloom has admitted to being "triggered" by his ex-"partner," which is why he sought therapy to recover. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gold Is Surging in 2025 — Smart Traders Are Already In IC Markets Learn More Undo The 48-year-old, who split from the 40-year-old "Hot N Cold" hitmaker in June, opened up about his emotional healing process through the Hoffman Method, a week-long personal development retreat that helps people recognize and correct harmful patterns, as per a report by Realtor. This comes in the aftermath of his breakup with Katy Perry; Orlando Bloom sold his Beverly Hills house for $7 million. Situated on the coveted 'Billionaire's Row' street, the property boasts views of the city and the ocean and was renovated for more than $5 million, as per a report by Benzinga. Live Events Why did Orlando Bloom leave his mansion in Beverly Hills? The sale seems like a simple real estate choice, but the timing suggests that there is more to it. Bloom and Perry's breakup was quiet but final, and both of them reportedly put their daughter's stability first. A source close to the couple said they have no plans to completely change their lives and that they are still committed to co-parenting in Montecito, as per a report. Bloom is evidently embarking on a fresh phase, encompassing both property and personal development. What led Orlando Bloom to seek therapy? In an interview with Oprah Winfrey's podcast, "The Oprah Podcast," Bloom acknowledged that he had battled toxic behaviors and had resorted to the Hoffman Method for guidance. He said, "I went to the Hoffman process about 10 years ago because I'd been triggered in a dynamic with my partner that had led me into a pattern of behavior that was very similar to the way in which I had grown up with my mother." The actor claimed that he was "confused" about how to give and receive affection because of his early years. Bloom says that the emotional spiral finally led him to the Hoffman Method, a week-long retreat for personal growth that helped him "feel born again."

Not only did the therapy help him as a partner, but it also helped him as a father. Bloom said honestly, "I think my job as a parent now is to allow my children to grow without getting in their way. It's sort of like, don't get in the way of anyone else's journey. "Don't let anyone get in the way of your journey, and just be grateful for the opportunities that are presented to you, and see the challenges of the dynamic that are in front of you as an opportunity for you to grow." What does Bloom do to focus on being a father and growing emotionally? Even though things are changing in his life, Bloom seems to be focused on giving Daisy and his son Flynn, whom he shares with ex-wife Miranda Kerr, a stable life. He said that growth, stability, and gratitude are now the most important parts of his parenting philosophy. The actor didn't say which partner "triggered" him, but the timeline suggests it might have happened during his earlier relationship with Kerr. Bloom's honesty about his healing journey is different from how Hollywood usually keeps quiet about mental health, as per a report by Realtor.

Lindsay Lohan shares the simple morning routine that keeps her motivated and productive: 'It's all about balance'
Lindsay Lohan credits her ability to juggle her hectic work schedule as an actress and her responsibilities as a mom to her consistent, yet simple, morning routine. Lohan, who's promoting her "Freakier Friday" sequel, starts off each day like many other people — with mindfulness, a meal and a workout. "I love having a routine, and I like schedules," she said in a May 27 interview with Elle. "So, my morning routine: Waking up, writing in my journal, sipping my green tea, breakfast with my son. And then Pilates, making sure I go." A decade ago, Lohan moved to Dubai for a reset. There, she met her husband, Bader Shammas, and in 2023, had her son, Luai. Around that time, she'd just ended a long break from acting. Though she's constantly back and forth from her home overseas to New York and Los Angeles, she tries to keep the same routine. "It's hard in L.A. Even taking my son to the park in L.A., I get stressed," said Lohan, 38. "It's all about balance and, as I said, routine. Especially when you have a kid, routine is the most important thing. And whatever their routine is, I've got to live by that." Her commitment to self-care and having a consistent morning regimen, she added, came from a lesson from her co-star and work mom, Jamie Lee Curtis, who taught her "to always take care of yourself first. Because without that, how can you do everything for everyone else?" Experts like bestselling author and personal growth expert Mel Robbins tend to agree with Curtis' advice. Robbins learned the lesson firsthand unintentionally after not paying attention to her own mental health early in parenthood. That seemed to lead to increased stress and anxiety in her child. The "single best thing" parents can do is to get ahead of those issues early, she said on a May 6 episode of "The Oprah Podcast." Starting your day with mindfulness, physical activity or time with your kids — as opposed to checking your emails or calendar — can boost your happiness and fulfillment, experts say. Journaling every morning, as Lohan does, can have a real impact: Just 15 minutes a day can help you clarify your thoughts and feelings, improve your problem solving skills and even help you recover from trauma, bestselling authors Deepak Chopra and Kabir Sehgal wrote for CNBC Make It in July 2019. Putting pen to paper at least three to five days a week could significantly improve your physical and mental health, they said. They recommended reflecting on topics like advice you'd give your younger self, or 10 things you wish other people knew about you. "If you're new to journaling, the easiest way to begin is to find a time and place where you won't be disturbed, and just start writing," they wrote. Dedicating a portion of your morning to having fun is important too, says psychologist Laura Pendergrass, who advises Fortune 500 companies. "Self-care in the form of fun is just as important as anything else we do to take care of ourselves," she said in 2022. "We recognize the importance of recess for kids and build it into their school time, but we forget the importance of play as adults. It's up to us to create our own enrichment opportunities to do something fun or creative and inject color into what could otherwise be a gray day."

Bestselling author shares her No. 1 tip for raising mentally resilient kids: It's 'the single best thing you could do'
Your child is throwing a tantrum, and it's stressing you out. Perhaps they're afraid of the dark, so you avoid an outburst by offering them a spot in your bed — but now it's a bad habit they can't seem to break. Or your child feels uncomfortable in social settings, so you let them stay home, and now they can't make friends at school. Giving into your kids to avoid your own feelings of stress and anxiety does more harm than good in the long run, says bestselling author and personal growth expert Mel Robbins. It's a big mistake she made when raising her daughter, the 56-year-old said on a May 6 episode of "The Oprah Podcast." "I really screwed this up as a mother," said Robbins. "As a mother, I take full responsibility for making my child's anxiety a hundred times worse. The single best thing you could do for your daughter is to get control of and heal your anxiety."Robbins herself was an anxious child, and her now-adult daughter expressed similar tendencies as a young kid, she said — sleeping on her mother's bedroom floor for almost a year due to separation anxiety, for example. Telling her "no" resulted in a fuss, triggering Robbins' own anxiety, so she allowed it to happen for longer than she should've, she added. "You want to know what I taught my daughter by doing that? I taught her that you're not capable of facing something that's difficult," Robbins said. "She got to the point that she didn't want to go to school ... I couldn't leave and go anywhere." Learning how to overcome your own anxiety is the first step to helping your kids do the same, said Robbins. And teaching them how to be mentally resilient gives them a better chance of becoming successful as adults, some psychologists say. People may use several common-sense strategies to ward off stress: talking to a therapist or loved one, eating healthier and sleeping more, working out, writing in a journal. Other tactics may be less obvious, like sleeping with your phone in another room, Robbins noted. "You're checking emails and messages [as soon as you wake up] and you wonder why you're stressed out and exhausted," said Robbins. "You're not even out of bed, and you have put all this other stuff in your brain." Martha Beck, a Harvard University-trained sociologist, uses a process called KIST, or "kind internal self talk," she wrote for CNBC Make It in January. Imagine your anxiety as a small, furry animal and tell it, "You're OK," or "Everything's fine." Then, when you feel even the smallest shift in your anxiety, "offer yourself kind wishes" — say something like, "May you feel peaceful," Beck wrote. Finally, imagine tucking your anxiety into a cozy box and carrying it gently in a small bag slung over your shoulder, wrote Beck. Once your emotions are in check, you can more effectively talk to your child. Robbins suggested some potential language to use: "I know this is scary, I know this feels uncomfortable and I'm going to be by your side. But you are capable of facing this, honey." The calmer you are in your delivery, the more they'll believe it, Robbins said. ,
