Jessica Alba is feeling under the weather, but the actress-turned-businesswoman is doing everything she can to make a speedy recovery. On Wednesday, Alba revealed she’s on the mend after suffering a mysterious injury that has left her on crutches and showed how she’s healing in an Instagram carousel.
The first slide in the roundup features a selfie of Alba sipping what appears to be coffee through a glass mug with the inscription, “She is growing through it.” She also shared snaps of a delicious-looking egg sandwich, cards from “The Healing Waters Oracle Guidebook” by Rebecca Campbell, and an image of a woman sitting next to a lion that reads, “I am the softest and most ruthless I’ve ever been.” Alba also shared a video of her sitting next to a pair of crutches while she receives an IV and a morning journal entry.
“Settled in a feeling of the unknown—the in between of what was and what’s to come is the place where you can begin again—sprout fresh leaves,” the morning note reads. “This is a place of magic—we are in constant motion…change and transformation is life. Expect the best from yourself as you sit in reverence of your precious moments.”
While The Honest Company co-founder shared the secrets to her resilience, she didn’t share any details about what happened. :Trying to speed up this recovery with all the healing—slow mornings, journaling, nourishing my body + soul 💫,” she wrote. “Plus some #NAD to boost cellular repair and get me off these dang crutches!”
The injury comes after Alba filed for divorce from her ex-husband Cash Warren earlier this year. After news broke of the couple’s split, Alba addressed the breakup on Instagram writing, “I’ve been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years—both as an individual and in partnership with Cash. I’m proud of how we’ve grown as a couple and in our marriage over the last 20 years and it’s now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals.”
