Russell Simmons house: Where does Russell Simmons live?
For native New Yorker Russell Simmons, moving to Los Angeles two years ago offered a change of pace and scenery. It’s beautiful,” the co-founder of Def Jam Recordings and creator of the Phat Farm fashion line tells PEOPLE.
The Spanish houses have flowers growing all over them.” Simmons chose one of them for himself: a five-bedroom, almost 6,000 sq. ft. home with Mediterranean architecture in the Hollywood Hills to be closer to his daughters Ming, and Aoki, who lives nearby with his ex-wife Kimora Lee Simmons.
I believe deeply that the pursuit of happiness is the pursuit of stillness,” says the spiritual Simmons, who practices yoga once a day and meditates twice daily, and who just launched a free app called Meditation Made Simple. “This house is designed to help me in my quest for inner peace. That’s why it has images of the pursuit of self-realization.
Although Simmons mostly meditates in his bedroom “I get up, light a candle, sit up and meditate” he heads outside to practice yoga on the days he can’t make it to a studio.
