Eva Mendes Details What Helps When Her and Ryan Gosling’s Kids Have Anxiety
View Date:2024-12-23 18:52:28
Eva Mendes has several tricks for helping her kids get to a place beyond their anxieties.
The Hitch star detailed the techniques she uses when her daughters Esmeralda, 9, and Amada, 8—who she shares with partner of 13 years Ryan Gosling—are feeling too overwhelmed by their emotions.
"The way that I deal with their anxieties a lot of the time is similar to how I deal with my own anxieties," Eva said in a Sept. 12 Instagram Story before explaining that her first suggestion is usually for them "to get up and move."
Describing movement as "anything from an impromptu dance party in the kitchen or wherever we're at" to jumping on a trampoline, the 50-year-old continued, "I like to dance. I'll just put on any kind of fun song. Usually it's from the '90s."
And the movement method has a high probability of working for Eva. As she put it, "Really, it takes seconds into dancing for them to just snap out of their head and into their body. And for me too, it works for me as well."
"I also love to take a walk if my kids are really in their heads and they're feeling anxious," Eva continued, "and if I don't have a trampoline nearby or I can't play loud music for whatever reason."
Noting that getting her children out of the house often disrupts the "rhythm of these anxieties," she added, "I tend to do something more physical when possible."
This isn't the first time Eva has provided insight into how her and Ryan are raising their girls. The 2 Fast 2 Furious actress previously revealed that her daughters remain strictly offline.
Alongside a video of Eva shaking her head "no" during an interview, Eva wrote in an August 2023 Instagram post, "When my kids ask me if they're old enough to go on the internet, social media or anything requiring wifi."
But she also admitted that the rule is subject to change as the little ones grow up, adding in the comments, "I'm just sharing what I feel now, but I know it's gonna get harder as they get older."
