6 Things Laura Prepon Has Said About Scientology
Published By admin with Comments 0
In a 2021 interview with People, Laura Prepon revealed she had not practiced Scientology “in close to five years.”
“I’ve always been very open-minded, even since I was a child. I was raised Catholic and Jewish. I’ve prayed in churches, meditated in temples. I’ve studied Chinese meridian theory. … [Scientology is] no longer part of my life,” said Prepon.
One year before leaving her post as a Scientologist, the Orange Is the New Black actress spoke to Celebrity Magazine, during which she shared her experience as a member of the church.
“It was amazing, and I felt that finally something was speaking my language,” Prepon, who reportedly “felt totally connected” to Scientology’s teachings, shared.
She explained the group’s concept of auditing “stripped away all of this charge, false ideas, decisions and misemotions” surrounding her.
Now a mom-of-two, Prepon suggested that the new phase in her life contributed to her decision to leave Scientology,
“As a brand new mother, I was reflecting so much on my own upbringing and the way I was mothered,” she told People. “I was forced to look at a lot of things in my life that I wasn’t looking at before.”
Prepon continued, “If motherhood has taught me anything so far, it’s that something can work out for a period of time and then you move on and evolve from that. As a new mom, I was riddled with anxiety that I had never experienced before. My friends who were mothers with older kids said, ‘Laura, this is a phase, you’ll move on and then it will be something different.’ And that has transcended into other parts of my life.”
