Kelly Clarkson has finally revealed the truth behind her incredible body transformation.

People have been talking about the 41-year-old's wellness journey over the past year especially since the musician has opened up about prioritizing her physical as well as her mental health.

However, in a new interview with PEOPLE Magazine, the star gave fans an in-depth look at her beauty regime as well as the tips and tricks she uses to keep herself looking and feeling good.

After relocating to New York City to take her eponymous show to the next level, Clarkson honed down on her routine in order to achieve her desired body goals.

"Walking in the city is quite the workout. I’m really into infrared saunas right now. And I just got a cold plunge because everybody wore me down," she said, via TODAY.

When it comes to her diet, the 'Because Of You' singer said that she "[eats] a healthy mix."

"I dropped weight because I’ve been listening to my doctor - a couple years I didn’t," she continued. "And 90% of the time I’m really good at it because a protein diet is good for me anyway. I’m a Texas girl, so I like meat - sorry, vegetarians in the world!"

However, that doesn't mean the talk-show host has cut out everything she loves.

"But I still splurge," she told the outlet. "The other night I had a frozen yogurt with my daughter, and it was magical."

Elsewhere in the interview with PEOPLE, Clarkson opened up about battling depression after her highly-publicized divorce with her former husband Brandon Blackstock to whom she was married for seven years.

She recalled the memories of her former relationship through her most recent album titled Chemistry.

"I didn’t see it other than: This is my outlet. I’m a let-go person; I don’t hold grudges. So it was really delving into what happened in my life and why - and what am I going to do about it?" she explained.

"I cannot express how appreciative I feel for having that kind of healthy outlet. Because the level of depression and things that come with divorce or grieving is extraordinarily hard. You feel alone, and it’s just a blessing to be able to have that outlet for those emotions that are overwhelming," she continued before adding that there was a light at the end of the tunnel.

"Finally releasing it [was] like, 'I’m taking my power back,'" Clarkson added. "That sounds very therapy, but that’s because I love therapy, and I think it’s important to have those tools to navigate your life and relationships."
