Valerie Bertinelli strips down as she experiments with trendy wellness routine
Valerie Bertinelli is diving into cold plunging.
The "One Day at a Time" star posted a selfie in a red bikini along with video of her getting into her pool in the early morning.
"My pool is 66° Now, for a cold plunge that's relatively warm. (that's what they say whoever they are)," she wrote in the caption.
She continued, "Along with everything else I've been experimenting with, this has helped improve my mood, has reduced inflammation and it's easier than filling my bath up with ice cubes."
Bertinelli shared other changes she's making while answering audience questions backstage at "The Drew Barrymore Show."
When asked about something from her past she's healing from that she once considered normal, she said, "people-pleasing."
"I'm trying to learn or do my best to not people-please any longer. But I thought it was normal, because I had to make sure everybody liked me. At this point, you really don't have a choice whether everybody loves you or not, that's up to them. It doesn't matter. Do I like myself? Most of the time. I'll keep working on that."
She also revealed that she has two therapists and has been doing EMDR therapy, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which involves moving your eyes in a specific way while processing traumatic memories, according to The Cleveland Clinic.
Bertinelli explained that when it comes to relationships, "They're there to trigger you so that you finally heal childhood wounds that have been chasing you or sitting in you your entire life. And if you're anyone like me, you've been avoiding working on those. So I'm going to try and work through all these wounds so that I can have good, healthy, authentic emotional relationships with people.
"But yeah, shame and self-loathing are bitches," she added with a laugh. "And they were never mine to begin with, but somehow they were given to me."
Bertinelli also addressed how to embrace aging, saying she's "on that path right now."
"I am doing my best to embrace my aging. It's challenging, but I have to say, it's better than the alternative. With age comes saggier skin, the wrinkles, the jowl line. You know, it's life. Your face shows what you've been through, and my face shows that I laugh a lot, so I'm cool with that," Bertinelli said.
Last week, Bertinelli celebrated her 65th birthday, sharing a video montage to mark the occasion.
"Went through it all in the last handful of years, and I'm so grateful for the downs as much as I am for all of the ups I am blessed to experience. The light at the end of the tunnel is finally here. I can see it. I feel it," she wrote in the caption.

Valerie Bertinelli Shares the Trader Joe's Snack She's ‘Addicted' to — and Walked Around a Store 3 Times to Find
Valerie Bertinelli revealed she's "addicted" to Trader Joe's Trio of Soft Licorice Twists She shared an Instagram video in which she recalled trying to find them in a store that wasn't her usual location They come in three flavors: ripe raspberry, tropical mango and tart green appleValerie Bertinelli is making a confession about a certain chewy candy. 'I haven't been to a Trader Joe's in weeks, months possibly, because I am addicted to these,' she admitted in a video taken in her car that was posted to her Instagram Stories on Wednesday, June 4. The celebrity chef, 65, then held up a package of the grocery chain's Trio of Soft Licorice Twists. 'But what am I supposed to do?' Bertinelli asked. 'I'm driving home from an appointment. I'm stopped at a stoplight. And I go, 'Well, look at that right around the corner, there's a Trader Joe's.' I've never been to that particular Trader Joe's because I don't often drive down this particular street. But I might as well turn left and go into the very crowded parking lot and wait for a parking space." Explaining that it was raining and she didn't have an umbrella, the Food Network alum went on to share her next course of action. 'Why don't I just walk into the store and get rained on so I can look for these particular things that I'm addicted to?' she continued. 'And I don't know the layout of this particular store, because every Trader Joe's is laid out differently. But did I walk around the store three times to see if I could find these, because they're not in the place they usually are, at the Trader Joe's I usually go to?' 'Okay, so what?' she asked viewers. 'And I ain't telling you how many bags I bought.' A description of the product on the Trader Joe's website calls the twists 'superbly soft and pleasantly chewy.' They come in three flavors: ripe raspberry, tropical mango and tart green apple. Bertinelli shared another playful anecdote on her Instagram Stories this week. In a video posted Tuesday, June 3, the One Day at a Time star said she was mistaken for a Valerie Bertinelli lookalike while running a recent errand. 'People are adorable,' she began the funny story. Bertinelli said when she visited a government office earlier that day for some paperwork, she was approached by a stranger while walking out. 'This guy stops me, holds up his phone and says, 'Hey ma'am, anybody ever tell you you look like her?'' she recalled. 'And it's me. And I said, 'Yeah, all the time.'' 'Everybody waiting in line all started laughing,' she added. 'I don't know if they knew it was me, or they really thought it wasn't and that I looked really a lot like Valerie Bertinelli. … We had a good laugh. And I love people.'

Miley Cyrus Explains Why She Isn't ‘Overly Passionate' About Becoming a Mom
This week, Miley Cyrus discussed her development as an artist over the years on an episode of The Interview podcast by The New York Times with Lulu Garcia-Navarro, from her time as a child star to now. In one segment, Cyrus explained how she makes business decisions; specifically, she shared why she is one of few pop stars on her level who doesn't have her own makeup line. 'My stepdad asked me the other day, 'Why are you the only one without a makeup line?'' Cyrus shared. 'I was like, 'Cause that's not my passion.' He goes, 'That's the right answer.' And it made so much sense. It's like, 'I don't have a makeup line because I'm not a makeup artist.'' She connected the thought to questions about becoming a parent, saying, 'I feel that way about motherhood. It's just never been something that I've been overly passionate about. It's a lot of responsibility and devotion and energy, and if you're not passionate about that, I don't know how you do sleepless nights and 18 years of what my mom dealt with.' But Cyrus doesn't seem to hold any negative opinions about the musical artists who are also passionate about makeup (or parenthood). She discussed her friendship with pop star Ariana Grande, who has her own line, r.e.m. beauty. The two have bonded over their challenging experiences with acting as children, which Cyrus said she has been working on with EMDR therapy. 'Ariana says there should be therapy for child actors, and I totally agree,' said Cyrus. 'There should be a weekly check-in. I've been doing very consistent therapy since I was 17 or 18 years old, so I think I've cleared up a lot of the feelings that I had about being a child star, and now I don't notice it so much because I don't notice it in me.' She continued, 'I guess the only thing I notice is when people are working too hard. I met Sabrina Carpenter a couple of times, and every time I see her I have the urge to ask her if she's okay. I know what it feels like to fry yourself, and I don't want anyone else to get fried. But I like all the new girls. I think they're all unique and are very found.'
