We are beyond thrilled to announce that the Earthchild Project Take 5 campaign has reached an incredible milestone – 30,000 sign-ups! What started as a dream; to bring a moment of peace and calm to South Africans across the country has quickly turned into a powerful movement, set to unite people from all walks of life.
A Moment for Peace, A Movement for Change
The overwhelming response to Take 5 is a testament to the desire for connection, calm, and collective well-being in our fast-paced world. From the bustling streets of Johannesburg to the serene landscapes of the Eastern Cape, thousands of individuals, schools, organisations, and communities have embraced this opportunity to meditate together, promoting mental wellness and cultivating a sense of unity.
Our journey began with a simple idea: to encourage everyone, regardless of age, background, or experience, to take a few minutes each day to breathe, reflect, and find a moment of peace. Thanks to your incredible support, this idea has blossomed into a nationwide movement, with 30,000 people joining in to make a difference in their own lives and in the lives of those around them.
Why Take 5 is Unique
Take 5 is not just about meditation – it’s about creating a powerful, collective experience. Participants are guided through a daily meditation available in five official languages: English, isiXhosa, isiZulu, Sesotho, and Afrikaans. This inclusivity ensures that everyone can participate in a way that feels comfortable and personal. But what truly sets Take 5 apart is the unity it creates – every day in September, thousands of South Africans will be practising the same meditation, no matter where you are or what language you speak. This shared experience brings us closer as a community, promoting a sense of togetherness that is deeply needed in today’s world.
What’s Next?
As we celebrate this incredible achievement, we’re more motivated than ever to keep the momentum going. The campaign continues throughout September, and it’s not too late to join! Whether you’re new to meditation or have been practising for years, Take 5 offers a simple and accessible way to enhance your mental well-being.
We’ll continue to share inspiring stories, daily motivations, and practical tips through our WhatsApp Channel, social media platforms, and media. We’re also thrilled to announce that our guided meditations will be available on all major streaming platforms, making it easier than ever to access your daily dose of calm.
