Reminiscing over the decade during which she was married to Brad Pitt in a recent interview, the 44-year-old said she would advise herself to:

‘Go to therapy. Clean up all of the s***. Clean up all of the toxins and the noise. Understand who you are. Educate yourself on the self.’

The actress was married to 49-year-old Brad from the age of 31 to 36, before he embarked on a relationship with Angelina Jolie, now 38.

Speaking about her former self, she admitted:

‘You can undo a lot of things. If you’re not happy, you can become happy. Happiness is a choice.

‘That’s the thing I really feel. Like with friends who refuse to get happy, who refuse to rise above the discomfort of where they’re at.’

The Friends star, who is engaged to actor Justin Theroux, was being interviewed by Jason Sudeikis, who is engaged to Olivia Wilde, and the pair talked about their happy relationships.

‘You actually deserve to have a family. And once you meet yourself, and truly love yourself, then you attract that,’ she said.

‘And look – I mean, the two of us have found these two, beautiful, loving, open people.’

Jennifer is currently promoting upcoming film We’re The Millers, in which she plays a sizzling stripper.

Speaking about her pre-stripper diet, Jen revealed:

'I did eat that day [of the stripping scenes].

‘I was on a very like, you know, greens and vegetables and lean proteins and kale.

'When I really wanted to have a cheat day, I had to have a kale chip.'

Speaking about her skimpy outfits, she admitted she kept her lady lumps well taped up, adding jokingly:

'I had no taping. I really just doubled my bras. I had a thong and then two pairs of underwear. Why I thought that was going to help protect anything is beyond me.

'Because, that's just like ridiculous... I was like, ''No, I need three bras! I need three bras because God forbid that one, if it's gonna escape”.'
