How it works
Each evening from June 13 to September 21, join us online for a simple 10-minute practice. No registration required to participate — just show up.
1
A contemplative contribution
Each day a different leader from community, faith, civic or cultural life shares 3 minutes — reflecting on how they find peace, and offering a message of hope and upliftment.
2
10 minutes of shared silence
A gentle visual and subtle music accompany 10 minutes of collective silent meditation — held together, across Australia and beyond.
3
No barriers to participation
Free, no registration, no chat. Simply join at 9.00pm AEST each evening. Come once or come every night — all are welcome.
4
A culminating gathering
The 100 days culminate on September 21 — UN International Day of Peace — national gathering to mark the conclusion of the shared journey.
