Dear friends, We hope this summer brings you more time to enjoy nature and spend quality time with your family and friends. For Plum Village centres, retreats are at the heart of the summer months. People of all ages from around the world join monastics for short periods to tap into the magic of mindfulness, connect to other humans, and find out how to apply that knowledge in their daily life. Remember, you can always consult the Plum Village website for what’s forthcoming and how to participate. The latest episode of The Way Out Is In podcast is built around a conversation from the Ancient Path for Modern Times retreat which took place at Plum Village France in June of this year. Episode 70, ‘Active Nonviolence’, features frequent guest Sister True Dedication, Christiana Figueres, and Dharma teacher Shantum Seth. Listen and read more about this episode on the podcast page, the Plum Village App, or the streaming service of your choice. Episode 71, ‘Feeling Safe’ - recorded at the same retreat - goes live soon, on Friday July 12.  Meanwhile, don’t forget to update to the latest version of the Plum Village App, so you can access and enjoy all the latest features. Until next time, with care The Plum Village App Team plumvillage.app

In. Out. Deep. Slow. This immersive contemplation is based on the gatha “In, out. Deep, slow. Calm, ease. Smile, release. Present moment, wonderful moment.” and it is guided by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. #thichnhatnahn plumvillage.app 🙏

🥕 😋 With Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu away, leadership coach/journalist Jo Confino holds the fort with a special episode about the art of land regeneration, happy #farming, and reconnecting deeply to #nature. This time, Jo is joined by special guests and happy farmers Mick McEvoy and Sister Trang Lam Hy (Sister Forest of Joy), two of the people behind the Happy Farms agroecology project in Plum Village. The conversation touches upon many topics, from #Zen philosophies, the Diamond Sutra, and deep ecology, to seasonal planting and practicing mindfulness while working the land; producing food AND caring for the Earth; collective awakening and beginning anew; empathy for our food; reclaiming the nobility of the farmer; the importance of growing (beautiful) vegetables in a time of polycrisis - even in small quantities; land regeneration and Zen Buddhism; Thich Nhat Hanh’s gardening metaphors; and more.

Wiki (A polycrisis is a cluster of disparate crises and shocks that interact, entangle and mutually re-inforce one another. It typically leads to more drastic effects than the sum of the parts.The concept was coined in the 1990s but became popular in the 2020s to refer to the effects of the pandemic, war, inflation, climate change, energy shortages and democratic backsliding.) https://lnkd.in/g7X5eNMN

A special note from Sister True Dedication, as she shares about the importance of meditation in a troubled world. ☁️ Here are some thoughts from Sister True Dedication: "This question is very alive for me right now. I don’t have all the answers, I don’t know how to hold a phone steady or in the right place, or how to film with flies, but this 3 minutes here captures the foundation of what I’ve understood from my 16 years in the monastery and my time training with Thay (Thich Nhat Hanh) and assisting him with the international community’s engaged actions. "How does it land with you? Am I making any sense?! Does it bring up questions? Has it been hard to sit amidst all the craziness? "I’m here on this crazy social media thing to learn, to listen, to understand. Here for you all just as you are, no judgement." ------- ✩ Republished with kind permission of Sister True Dedication (Sister Chân Hiến Nghiêm) ➛ https://lnkd.in/gBz4m5Re ------- This is one of the many shorts included in the (completely free) Plum Village App ➛ https://plumvillage.app Enjoy! 🙏
