Founded by MaharishiIn the fast-paced world of fashion, where long-haul flights, demanding schedules, and constant public attention are the norm, maintaining inner stability can be just as important as physical health.
This is one reason many of the world’s supermodels have turned to Transcendental Meditation® (TM)—a simple, natural, twice-daily technique known for reducing stress and restoring mental clarity.
What makes TM especially appealing in the modeling industry is its practicality. It doesn’t require changing beliefs or lifestyle—just sitting comfortably for about 20 minutes, twice a day. For models constantly moving between time zones and high-pressure environments, that simplicity matters.
From Runway Pressure to Inner Calm
For one of the most successful models in history, Gisele Bündchen, Transcendental Meditation became a turning point early in her career. Despite global success, she has openly spoken about experiencing anxiety and overwhelm during her rise in the fashion world.
Like many successful people, consistency is everything and for Gisele this is no different. Her approach to TM is consistent and structured: 20 minutes in the morning and 20 minutes in the afternoon.
And the reason she continues to practice is because whatever the situation or challenge she faces externally, she knows that her reservoir of happiness is untouch within.
“The only place I found peace was within,” Gisele told meditationlifestyle.com.
“You have to connect to that peace within yourself that knows your essence, knows that you come from love. That, I think, keeps everything joyful,” she said.
“It’s a gift you give yourself.”
Today, Bündchen balances multiple roles—mother, author, environmental advocate, and entrepreneur. TM remains a steady foundation that helps her stay calm and centred, regardless of external pressures.
Managing Career, Business, and Family Life
Australian supermodel Miranda Kerr offers another example of how Transcendental Meditation supports a full and demanding life.
As the founder of KORA Organics and a mother of four, Kerr manages business responsibilities alongside family life. She has often highlighted the importance of taking time to reset during busy days:
“Life can get so busy… it’s taking the time… that makes it meaningful.”
While she speaks broadly about meditation, she is widely known to practice TM. For Kerr, it supports emotional balance and helps her maintain energy and clarity while managing multiple responsibilities.
Performing Under Pressure
Behind every runway show is an environment that requires precision, confidence, and composure.
Models like Martha Hunt, known for her work with Victoria’s Secret, take advantage of TM to prepare for these high-pressure moments to stay focused before runway shows.
In situations where timing and presence are critical, TM provides a way to settle the mind quickly. This allows models to step onto the runway feeling more composed and focused, even in front of global audiences.
A Deeper Commitment to TM
For Natane Boudreau, Transcendental Meditation is not just a personal practice—it’s a central part of her life.
After being discovered at a young age and working with major fashion brands, she expanded into film and creative projects, co-founding N+N Films.
Alongside her career, she works with initiatives connected to the David Lynch Foundation, helping bring TM to people in high-stress environments.
“I can’t live without it,” Natane told Vogue.
And, similar to Gisele, her consistency reflects the core of the practice.
“Never miss my two-times-a-day meditation,” Natane said.
For Natane, Transcendental Meditation is essential—not just for managing stress, but for maintaining stability in a demanding industry.
The growing popularity of Transcendental Meditation among supermodels and high performers comes down to three key benefits:
• Stress reduction: helping counter the demands of travel and performance
• Mental clarity: supporting focus in high-stakes situations
• Long-term balance: offering a consistent, sustainable routine
There are more than 700 research studies, conducted across the world in top universities and research institutes, that show TM’s positive benefits in creating an orderly mind and a deeply rested physiology. The orderly mind leads to being present and focused while the deep rest rejuvenates the physiology with energy, vitality and endurance.
The modelling industry often focuses on outward appearance, but the reality behind the scenes requires being present, resilient and stable. Transcendental Meditation offers a scientifically verified way to maintain that balance internally.
For these women, TM isn’t a trend—it’s a reliable tool. In a world that rarely slows down, taking time each day to reset the mind has become one of the most valuable investments they have made.
