Gisele Bundchen told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show Friday that meditating has been a great stress reliever in her life — and joked that it even helped the New England Patriots win Super Bowl LI.

“That was a very big nail-biter,” Bundchen said about the big game, which was one of the greatest comebacks in sports history.

Surrounded by “intense” Atlanta Falcons fans, Bundchen first handled her stress by “screaming and praying and calling my family and asking everyone to pray,” she told Fallon. After that? “I started meditating, because it was the only thing that could calm me down, because it was kind of crazy,” she said.

The Pats wound up defeating the Falcons 34-28 in overtime, coming back from a 25-point deficit.

“I channeled some great energy and, really, I feel like a little responsible,” Bundchen said, laughing. “I brought love and peace and clarity and calmness into the game. It shifted after that, I must tell you.”
