The 35-year-old actress said that the Zen proverb, which a friend sent it to her, is great, People Magazine reported.

Holmes, who was earlier married to Tom Cruise, added that people just need to stop taking themselves so seriously, relax and let go in order to not find themselves just so dragged down.
