Speaking to her 187K followers in a video via on her Instagram stories, the mum-of-two said: ‘I’m having one of those really annoying mornings this morning, where I woke up just so anxious and stressed about everything.
‘And then what happens to me is I then feel guilty,’ continued the former EastEnders star, ‘because I think: ‘My god look at your bloody life, what do you feel stressed about? What do you feel anxious about?’ Thought I’d share with you how I’m feeling much better than I did when I first woke up.’
Revealing how she dealt with her anxiety, the TV presenter added: ‘So I did a really good meditation by Jonathan Lehmann, just a ten minute one. Then I had a little stretch, and now I’m out with my dogs!’.
The ITV star took her Instagram feed earlier in the week to share a candid post about body confidence, posting an image of her skinny dipping in a swimming pool.
‘Whole next level in body confidence for me!!!’ wrote Nadia alongside the image in which she is completely naked. ‘I can’t believe it but I only swam flaming naked in the flaming pool today!!! This has never happened!!!’.
Adding the hashtag ‘liberating’, Nadia continued: ‘God it felt good to swim totally free!! I’m not going to lie I would love to say I leapt out and pranced around the pool but in truth I nearly drowned trying to get my bikini back on IN the pool!! Not quite ready to haul myself up the steps in my birthday suit!!! Maybe next year eh girls!!’.
