Miranda Kerr's healthy lifestyle habits are rubbing off on her kids.
While chatting exclusively with PEOPLE at the Living Beauty Cancer Foundation's 2026 Annual Spring Luncheon on Wednesday, April 29, the model and entrepreneur, 43, revealed that meditation practices play a big role in her overall healthy lifestyle. Kerr, who's amom of four boys, shares that her love for the "incredible tool" has rubbed off on her 15-year-old son, Flynn.
"Meditation for me has been such an incredible tool, and I learned when I was 17 how to meditate, and I've been more religious about it probably in the last year than ever," she tells PEOPLE. "I don't have the luxury of having 20 minutes twice a day, but I do have the luxury right now of fitting it in the morning before the kids wake up."
"I've taught the kids, [and] they have their own mantra that they were given by my Vedic meditation teacher, and she sat with them. We did a little meditation. She did her little ceremony when we did a meditation together for my 6, 7, and 15-year-old," she explains. "And my 15-year-old is pretty consistent with it. He finds it really grounding and helpful."
Kerr welcomed her son Flynn with ex-husbandOrlando Bloomin January 2011. The former couple was together from 2010 to 2013 before Kerrtied the knotwith husbandEvan Spiegelin 2017. Kerr and Spiegel have since welcomed three kids together — son Hart, who was born in May 2018, and son Myles, who was born in October 2019, followed by Pierre in February 2024.
The proud mom shared that meditation is something she wants all of her kids to have in their toolkit, explaining that their connection to it comes from watching her prioritize it in her life.
"The thing about kids is that they watch what you do. They don't really necessarily listen to what you say, but they see your actions. When [Flynn] sees me daily doing my meditation and the benefits that that gives me, he's like, 'Oh, that's interesting. I'd like to try that,' " she says. "And he actually had a little friend group who, after he learned, another six of his friends learned as well, and he went together with them when they got their mantra, and they learned, and then they all did a meditation session together."

"I'm sure it'll be something that he will lean on more in certain times of his life, but it's just a good thing to have in their toolkit," she adds.
Later in the conversation, the doting mom shared the one thing she plans to do to celebrate herself on Mother's Day.
"Honestly, I just want to be having a cup of tea in bed. That's a real luxury to me," she says. "I do have this thing about having a cup of tea in bed and watching the sunrise. I love it with my kids in the bed. So that's a real treat."

Speaking more about her oldest, Kerr shares that she's sure he'll want to begin learning how to drive next year.
"I'm sure he will," she says, sharing that she learned how to drive on a farm when she was younger. "He's had a little bit of experience, but not as much as I'd like him to."
She adds, "I grew up learning stick, and I wanted him to learn stick as well."
