The Duchess of Sussex, 37, wrote a blog post back in 2015 where she mentions her hack for being happier in life.
The then-Suits actress said that she took up Vedic Meditation and it completely transformed her outlook.
She admitted she was sceptical when she first met her American meditation teacher, Light Watkins.
Meghan said: “Not gonna lie, I rolled my eyes thinking ‘Oh give me a break, mystic man’. But low and behold, this mystical man was right.
“I can’t put my finger on the why or the how, but I will tell you this much, for me… I am just happier. And meditation has much to do with that.”
She said that despite being really busy at the time, she always made time for the meditation exercises after she got hooked.
Meghan added: “I know you’ll think of a million excuses as to why this is silly or why you don’t have time for it; much like the day I told Light I didn’t have enough hours in the day to do it, and he told me that’s why I needed to meditate twice as much.”
She loved Light’s teaching so much, that one of his books even appeared on her list of favourite reads.
The Inner Gym: A 30-day workout for strengthening Happiness by Light Watkins, was written to correct the assumptions that happiness is down to money, looks or your relationship.
In the book, readers follow six exercises – including ‘be still’, ‘be thankful’ and ‘receive freely’ – that promise to ‘strengthen your happiness in 30 days'.
With her charity work, previous acting roles and now transitioning to life in the royal family, Meghan definitely likes to stay active.
She is a yoga fanatic (often doing candlelit classes) which is not surprising giving her mum is an instructor.
The Suits actress said: "I love an intense vinyasa class – and even better if it’s blasting hip hop and done in a dark room with candlelight.
"The best! I’ll do yoga a couple of times a week – hot yoga specifically.”
And previously she has attributed her lean body to her Pilates classes with personal trainer Heather Dorak.
Here's Meghan's full list of favourite books, including The Little Prince and The Dress.
And this is the duchess' diet and exercise regime revealed.
Unfortunately for Meghan, one of her ultimate favourite indulgent foods has also been banned from Buckingham Palace.
