How much do you know about Celine Dion? Other than her incredible onstage personality, her late husband, René Angélil, and her kids — René-Charles, 18, and Nelson and Eddy, both 8 — we’re guessing not much!

Outside the spotlight, Celine lives a very casual life with her family and she wouldn’t trade it for the world. “I am a woman assuming her own destiny, full of energy and in love with life,” the singer gushed to Closer Weekly this past May. “I am discovering myself more and more. At 51, I have the sense that I am at my pinnacle!”

She likes to be lazy on a Sunday.

“A lot of times, I will wear my PJs all day,” Celine, 51, recently confided about her downtime at home in a recent interview with CR Fashion Book. “I’m with my kids, and it will be breakfast all day. I’ll just rest and be in my pajamas.”

She also likes to dress up for herself.

Even when she’s spending the night in, “sometimes I wear my nicest gowns, like I would wear on a date,” the star said. “Or put my hair in a chignon, put on my beautiful jewelry and [later] just take a bath in the bathtub and feel like I’m Liberace.”

She meditates for 30 minutes every night before bed.

“If I have little aches and pains somewhere, I visualize the tendons and the muscles and the blood flow and try to heal myself,” Celine, who believes it’s essential to pay close attention to how you feel, said. “Once your body is starting to say something, you have to be very, very in tune with it,” she explained.

Dancing makes her happy.

“Dancing has been in my DNA all my life,” Celine, who started taking it more seriously following the death of her husband, René, in 2016, previously told People. “At a certain point [in your life] you just want to take care of yourself, and I found that in dance.”

She’s still getting better with age.

Growing older doesn’t upset Celine at all. “There’s this power and this strength that comes with that maturity. That’s priceless,” she told Good Morning America‘s Deborah Roberts in an April interview. “Today’s the first day of the beginning of my life. Because I know that I don’t have to worry.”
