The 43-year-old actress posted a barefaced photo on Instagram to promote her latest work, The Longevity Book, writing, “I’m so excited to continue the conversation because learning that you can age well, will actually help you age better. If you understand how your body works then you can take action to help keep it in the best possible condition so it can carry you through a long and beautiful life.”

In a post on her website, Diaz shares a sneak peek of her life-living secrets that we’re likely to see in her book. Her five pillars of living your happiest, healthiest life? “Eating, moving your body, getting a good nights sleep, relief of stress, and connecting with the ones we love.”

She goes on to advise that the key to aging “better” is accepting growing old in the first place. “Learning that you can age well, will actually help you to age better,” she writes. “If you understand how your body works then you can take action to help keep it in the best possible condition so it can carry you through a long and beautiful life.”

And Diaz practices what she preaches — she’s made it clear that she’s proud of her face as she’s growing older, being that this isn’t the first time she’s gone makeup-free to promote one of her works. She posted three barefaced selfies to celebrate her last hit read, The Body Book.

Her biggest wish for all her friends: “That you get to grow old.”

Preach, Diaz.
