Jennifer Aniston and Jim Curtis say meditation helps them navigate early relationship challenges
The actress and her boyfriend, who have been dating for about 18 months, said they use meditation and open communication to manage disagreements during the early stage of their romance.
Jennifer Aniston and her boyfriend Jim Curtis, who have been together for roughly a year and a half, told the Jamie Kern Lima Show that they rely on meditation and regular conversation to handle arguments in the early "honeymoon" phase of their relationship. Curtis, a hypnotherapist and transformational coach, said the couple uses tools such as "meditation, acceptance, understanding" rather than more forceful approaches.
"In a honeymoon phase, your tools don’t have to be big sledgehammers," he explained. He added that the partnership is "going really well" and described Aniston as "grounded, open, caring, kind and loving." The pair first attracted public attention in July when they were photographed together on a vacation in Mallorca, Spain, alongside friends Jason Bateman and Amanda Anka. Curtis later wrote in a personal newsletter that the experience left him feeling abundant, joyful and loved. Sources familiar with the couple say they met through mutual friends, are very happy together, and have not discussed marriage plans.
