After years of romantic woes, Jennifer Aniston might have turned to an unconventional new method to find love.
The Friends actress, 56, known for her well-publicized breakups with Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux, ignited relationship speculation when she traveled to Mallorca for the Fourth of July weekend with charming life coach and love ‘guru’ Jim Curtis.
Aniston seemed content and at ease during her getaway with Curtis, who claims to be a ‘transformational coach and hypnotherapist’ and has garnered about 550,000 followers on Instagram.
Curtis often shares uplifting quotes and ‘manifestations’ intended to assist people in ‘breaking free from their past and patterns’ to discover love—and Aniston has been engaged with his posts on the social media site for nearly two years.

Aniston hit the like button on his post last week, hinting she was looking for love, which read: ‘Repeat these affirmations to heal and recover from a divorce, breakup or difficult romance and begin to call in the new empowered, healthy and divine love.’
It’s not the first time the pair have stepped out in public. Last month, Aniston and Curtis were spotted at luxury hotel Ventana Big Sur in Northern California.
It’s perhaps notable that the actress also liked one of Curtis’s posts just last week which read: ‘Repeat these affirmations to heal and recover from a divorce, breakup or difficult romance and begin to call in the new empowered, healthy and divine love.’
Aniston has been actively engaging with Curtis’s content for quite some time.
Back in November 2023, she showed her appreciation for a post which read: ‘Is it better to settle or stay alone? The answer lies in nurturing meaningful relationships. Research shows that connections with others are crucial for happiness. So, don’t settle in your love life, and don’t isolate yourself either.’
Curtis is also the author of ‘Shift: Quantum Manifestation Guide: A Workbook for Coding a New Consciousness’ – which, in an Instagram post of her own, Aniston told her followers she was reading in May this year.
Further evidence of their growing bond may have been evidenced in April, when Aniston revealed that she had turned to hypnosis to get over her fear of flying.
She said: ‘But I have been doing some hypnosis lately… it’s shockingly good!’
Curtis practices a therapy that he calls ‘hypno-realization’ which he says helps people ‘break free from their past to create an entirely new reality of powerful loving connection.’

In May Aniston revealed she was reading Curtis’ bestselling self-help book Shift
Curtis’s own backstory saw him overcome years of debilitating nerve pain, which first struck the summer after his freshman year at the University of New Hampshire in 1995.
When an MRI revealed lesions on his spinal cord, he decided to change his story from ‘frat guy athlete to something else’ and pursue alternative methods of healing.
Curtis credits his university professor for sowing the seeds of his philosophy.
‘He taught me to meditate and introduced me to the idea of mindfulness: focusing on just being present,’ he said in a 2017 interview.
He also calls this professor his ‘Stimulati’ and ‘thought igniter’.
For her part, Aniston was wed to actor Brad Pitt from 2000-2005 before the Hollywood golden couple famously imploded when he met actress Angelina Jolie on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith.

Aniston was ‘one of the first to congratulate’ her ex-husband Justin Theroux after he tied the knot with his new wife Nicole Brydon Bloom
It wasn’t until 2015 that Aniston would settle down again, marrying Justin Theroux in 2015.
But theirs wasn’t to be a lasting romance. They divorced just three years later.
In 2022, Aniston tragically revealed she had unsuccessfully tried IVF – and wished she had frozen her eggs years earlier.
‘It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road,’ Aniston said at the time.
‘All the years and years and years of speculation… It was really hard. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it,’ she added.
‘I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me, “Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.” You just don’t think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed.’
But, she added: ‘I have zero regrets.’
Theroux, 53, recently remarried – in a secret ceremony – to new love Nicole Brydon Bloom, 30.
It is also understood that Aniston was taken by surprise when she learned of the wedding, but was nonetheless among the first to offer her best wishes to the happy couple.
‘Jennifer was one of the first to congratulate Justin on getting married,’ an insider exclusively told the Daily Mail in March. ‘Yes, it took her by surprise but they have maintained a close friendship, and she is happy for him that he has found true love.’
The source added that the news was somewhat bittersweet for Aniston, despite the fact she approves of Theroux’s much-young new spouse.
