General Practice Week in Upper Hamlet – Autumn 2025

We warmly invite English-speaking friends to join us in Upper Hamlet, home of the brothers, for a week of mindfulness practice with the Plum Village community (26th September – 3rd October).

During general practice week(s), retreatants will mostly join the activities of the residential community. There will also be sessions designed to suit retreatants who are new to the practice. The programs will be different to the large themed retreats. For example, during the general practice weeks, there is no dharma sharing families like during special themed retreats.

During this time, the sisters of New Hamlet will host a mindful cooking retreat, ‘Savour Life‘ and the sisters of Lower Hamlet will host a general practice week for single women and couples.
