It’s been a little over two months since 39-year-old Maria Menounos underwent surgery for a brain tumor and the Sirius XM host revealed to US Weekly how the diagnosis has changed her life.
“What this has done is shift my focus into more of like a mind, body, spiritual kind of grounding that needs to happen,” Maria revealed following her February diagnosis. “Having a healthy lifestyle was always important for me. I think this has convinced me to give myself more time, mentally, to breath.”
Happy Sunday! Remember we are human beings not human doings! Enjoy the day!

The busy presenter, who will be returning to work after Labor Day, told US Weekly she has since scheduled her career priorities around her life and not the other way around. She is also making time to do more things for herself.
Menounos revealed her therapist also suggested spending more time with girlfriends. “It’s not that I don’t have female friends,” Menounos said, “I was just working – it was always work, work, work.”

Maria is also able to get back to enjoying her favorite form of exercise – Pure Barre. “You feel like a million bucks when you’re done,” Maria revealed. “And it really makes such a difference in your body.”
