Now I meditate twice a day for half an hour. In meditation, I can let go of everything. I’m not Hugh Jackman. I’m not a dad. I’m not a husband. I’m just dipping into that powerful source that creates everything. I take a little bath in it.

Jackman describes meditation as a deliberate shedding of social roles and public identity—celebrity, fatherhood, marriage—in order to rest in a more fundamental sense of being. The repetition (“twice a day for half an hour”) frames it as disciplined practice rather than a sporadic wellness habit. His language of “source that creates everything” suggests a spiritual or metaphysical orientation (akin to nonsectarian mindfulness or New Age-inflected spirituality), while the homely metaphor of “a little bath” emphasizes restoration: meditation as cleansing, replenishing, and returning to equilibrium. The quote’s significance lies in how it reframes success and selfhood: not as constant performance, but as periodic reconnection with an inner ground that precedes roles and achievements.
