FAQ
The registration fee of $49 gets you one month access to the resources in the one month online program during the month of May including all the guest guided meditations and video interviews with the world's best teachers and experts. It is not a donation to the cause. If you'd like to be part of making an impact this May, you are invited to make an optional donation to the cause or get sponsored to take your 10 minute a day meditation challenge. Think of it as a fun run for your mind. Meditating for 10 mins a day for one month is a challenge, so get sponsored and dedicate this effort to a cause greater than yourself. It only takes $50 to bring one person water for life so this May join our effort to raise money for the cause and transform lives forever!

Mindful in May is a one month invitation. If you’re not ready for a month challenge you’re welcome to try it for two weeks. Who knows, you might find you’ll want to keep going. But we ask for a donation towards the cause, no matter how many days you choose to meditate.
By all means! We are providing material so that those who are newer to meditation can learn and create a habit. We have set a 10 minute a day goal as a reasonably achievable time for most people. If you are wanting to extend your practice that’s great!
The audio meditations are there as a support. If you prefer to sit in silence with your own practice, no problem. Of course the longer you practise meditation the more benefits you get so commit to whatever time feels good to you!
Yes, if you have a team of more than 50 people we can organise that. You will need to know who is participating in advance and have names and emails of those you would like to register. Then contact us at [email protected].
