Is the 7 Days to Happiness Challenge really free?

Yes. The 7-day challenge, the daily live sessions, and the meditation collection you receive when you register — all free. No credit card required.

How much time will the Happiness Challenge take each day?

Each live session is one hour. As for the daily practices, most of them don't require carving out extra time, because happiness isn't a ritual you perform. It's a feeling. A perception. A new way of moving through the day you're already having.

What if I miss a session during the 7 Days to Happiness Challenge?

Replays are shared with all registered participants. Life happens — you won't lose access just because one day gets away from you.

Is the Happiness Challenge connected to the Mindvalley Membership?

The challenge itself is completely standalone and free. If you'd like to continue your growth with Kristina and the wider Mindvalley community beyond the 7 days, you can — but that's entirely your choice.

Mindvalley 7 Days to Happiness Challenge

Q: Do I need prior experience with meditation or personal development?

None at all. This challenge was built for real people with real lives — not for people who already have a two-hour morning ritual. Whether you're new to this kind of work or deeply experienced, you'll find something valuable here.

Q: What happens after the 7 days?

That's up to you. Most people find that one week of this work gives them both a new perspective and a clearer sense of what they want to do next. There will be options for going deeper, but there's no obligation.

The Hidden Problem With Happiness

Nobody ever taught us about happiness.

Think about it. At school, nobody sat you down to explain what happiness actually is, or how it works, or what to do when you can't seem to find it. What you got instead were lessons about success - how to study, how to perform, how to set goals and hit them. And somewhere along the way, without anyone spelling it out, you absorbed a very reasonable assumption: that if you did those things well enough, happiness would follow.

It's not a crazy idea. It's actually a pretty logical conclusion given everything you were shown.

The problem is that for most people - myself included - it just doesn't quite work out that way. The goals get met. The milestones land. And the happiness shows up, briefly, and then quietly relocates itself to the next thing on the list.

I spent a long time thinking that was a personal failure. That I was doing life slightly wrong, or wanting slightly too much, or not appreciating what I had. It took me longer than I'd like to admit to consider a different possibility:

What if it isn't success that drives happiness - but happiness that drives your success?

Not a consolation prize. Not a softer ambition. A completely different starting point.

Your life looks fine. That's almost the problem.

You're not in crisis. Things are, by most measures, going well. And yet there's this low hum that doesn't quite go away - a gap between what your life looks like from the outside and what it feels like from the inside.

You know the feeling. You work toward something, you get there, the satisfaction lasts a few days. Then you're already onto the next thing, and the good feeling went with it. You tell yourself you'll slow down and enjoy things once this phase is over. Once the project wraps. Once the kids are older. Once you've sorted out the next thing. And the next thing always arrives right on cue.

This isn't a flaw. It's a gap in what you were taught. Because happiness isn't something that eventually catches up to you. It's something you build. And most of us were never shown how.

The 7-Day. 7 Skills:

Mon, Jun 8:

Skill #1 - Awareness

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

You cannot change that what you are not aware of.

We start the challenge with the most fundamental skill for transformation.

It doesn’t take time. Only practice. Then, see how your life transforms.

Tue, Jun 9:

Skill #2 - No Comparison

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

Let’s start with a simple skill, and then build on our success.

Break free from a destructive habit that has poisoned the lives even of the most successful people.

Learn a simple way to shift your focus from what you are lacking to what really matters.

Wed, Jun 10:

Skill #3 - Meaningful Connections

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

They say – Your happiness is in your own hands. Don’t give it away.

Well, simply put – they are wrong.

Let’s get into the one topic most feel-good messengers are getting wrong.

Thu, Jun 11:

Skill #4 - Being Present

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

Regrets live in the past. Anxieties live in the future.

Happiness is in the present.

Sounds simple enough. Then why do most people struggle with it?

Fri, Jun 12:

Skill #5 - Forgiveness

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

Forgiveness is like a PhD of personal growth.

And don’t be deceived – even the most enlightened of the gurus often struggle with it.

What you might need is a paradigm shift – a new perspective on this familiar idea.

Sat, Jun 13:

Skill #6 - Make Peace with Pain

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

Pain is the price of admission to meaningful life.

In other words – if you want to avoid pain, you have to avoid everything which is good about life.

Do you really want that? Or is it time to make peace with this immutable experience?

Sun, Jun 14:

Skill #7 - Self-Love

9:00 AM - 10:00 AM LA

Imagine the life of your dreams… shared with someone you cannot stand.

Nothing will give you happiness unless you learn to love the one constant in your life – yourself.

We leave this skill for the last. Because, honestly, it is one of the most elusive.

The Transformation:

By Day 7, you won't be the same person who started. You'll have seven real skills that compound over time - and a completely different relationship with your own happiness.

Sign up today and receive this before we even begin.
