Invest in Peace

Peacefulness 10-Day Challenge

September 9–18, 2026

Ten days of reflection, meditation, conversation and practical tools to cultivate peace within ourselves — and let it ripple out into our communities.

Free Online & In-Person Open to Everyone
About the Challenge

Many paths, one journey to peace

The Peacefulness 10-Day Challenge is a Heartfulness Institute Canada initiative, bringing together organizations, speakers and communities from across the country who share one aspiration: to cultivate peace within ourselves, and let that peace ripple outward into our families, workplaces and communities.

We believe there are many paths to peace. Over ten days, you'll hear from voices across Buddhist practice, multi-faith traditions, meditation, mindfulness and community wellness — each sharing their own way of cultivating calm, compassion and connection. Whatever your background or belief, you are welcome here.

Whether you're completely new to meditation or already on a personal growth journey, everyone is invited to take part.

"Invest in Peace — For Everyone, Everywhere, Every Day."

At our in-person community celebrations, we come together to close the challenge and recognize Peace Ambassadors — participants who dedicated themselves to ten days of reflection and practice — and Peace Champions, community members whose everyday actions spread compassion and harmony.

One small favour that helps us a lot: online and in-person are registered separately. If you're joining both — the virtual sessions and a community celebration — please register for each one. It helps us set the right number of chairs, meals and meditation cushions for everyone. 🙏
