So to hope to be able to have peace to be able to have justice and environmental balance are consequences of our behavior not just our intentions.

Global markets must be balanced by global values such as respect for human rights and international law democracy security and sustainable economic and environmental development.

I can't sing but I can understand wanting to keep a balance trying to pursue dreams while creating a stable environment for my children.

I'm eating a lot of organic proteins and vegetables! Maintaining a healthy balanced diet is my No. 1 priority because I'm nursing my daughter.

I've never followed a vegan or vegetarian diet in the past but I think I could do it. It would not be easy. I have worked with nutritionists who have said a vegan diet is not necessarily all positive for your health because you need nutrients you only find in meats. I believe in a balanced diet.

These days I travel so much it's hard to get into a routine. When I'm on the road I tend to use hotel gyms. When I'm home in L.A. I like to hike and hit the surf. All in all I try to keep a balanced diet and exercise routine which has stood me in good stead to date.
