She told Hello! magazine: “The mind is the most powerful tool you can call on in times of need and I’ve used it many times.
“I’ve found techniques that work for me – meditation has been a great help over the past two weeks.”
The mother-of-two tells the magazine that she hopes the show makes her feel the way she did before having children, and before an acid attack left her severely injured.
She said: “I wanted to use the show as a tool to learn how to let go and feel sexy. I used to feel like this some years ago and would like to get a small bit of it back.”
She said of her wedding dance in 2015: “We had a routine to Michael Jackson. It all went a bit wrong but we had a laugh then everyone joined in.
“Dancing definitely doesn’t come naturally to me but it’s about letting go and enjoying yourself and that’s what I did at my wedding and now on Strictly but this time in front of millions.”
