The actor told PEOPLE in 2017 thatone of his biggest goals as a fatheris to teach his children “to have a great appreciation for everything” in life.

“As a kid, we had very little money, and my parents saved up all year to just pay for a two-week camping vacation,” he explained. “Financially, we’re in a different position, but I want to make sure they know these things don’t come easy. You have to work for it, and you can’t take it for granted.”

When it comes to his own approach to life, Hemsworth recently revealed that he has been carving out more time for quiet reflection since he learned on his National Geographic docuseriesLimitless with Chris Hemsworththat he has anelevated risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease.

“I’m incorporating more solitude into my life,” he toldMen’s Healthin October.

“Lately I’ve really felt the importance oftaking time for yourselfwithout any outside voice or stimulation and making time for stillness,” he added.

His health and wellness routine now includes more “mindfulness work” including meditation and breath work, which he likes to practice while using the sauna or doing an ice bath.

“For me, my favorite mindfulness work comes from the immersion in physical [activities] that allow me to be fully present and force me out of [my] head and into my body, in particular surfing,” he noted.
