Dharma Talks / The Power of Stopping and Resting | Business Retreat

Br Pháp Hữu

Brother Phap Huu gives the orientation talk for the Business retreat. He covers the basic practices of breathing, sitting, total relaxation, eating, walking etc. These practices are concrete practices of mindfulness and allow us to return to the present moment. These practices also enable us to stop and heal, and to stop and look deeply into the roots of the situation. They are also a means to generate happiness and gratitude in our daily lives. We need to practice before we suffer so that when suffering arises, we already know how to take care of it.

This is the first talk of the retreat “Compassionate leadership: mindfulness and ethics in business” held at Plum Village Practice Center, France, 1st-8th June, 2019.
