Summer Retreat: Plum Village Is In Our Heart
The details of this discussion include Thich Nhat Hanh’s encouragement to practice meditation as a family, using practices such as inviting the bell for mindful breathing, creating a meditation room, and using gathas to guide the breath. It is essential to instill mindfulness in children and to transform daily tasks like brushing teeth into meditative practices. Mindfulness should be practiced throughout the day, including during phone calls and simple activities like smiling at a red light. The practice of mindfulness helps cultivate inner peace, compassion, and better communication. The noble community guides towards kindness, truth, and inner peace, and it is essential to practice with intelligence to remain fresh, loving, and solid.
