Here is the foot of a tree.
Here is an empty, quiet place.
Here is a small sitting cushion.
Here is the cool green of the grass.
My child, why don’t you sit down?
Sit upright.
Sit with solidity.
Sit in peace.
— Thich Nhat Nanh
Many practitioners are acutely aware that we are living in times of great peril and promise. It is easy to be overwhelmed by feelings of despair, helplessness and sorrow for what is being done to our Earth. Yet, there are so many practices that can help us make a positive difference and bring us hope, strength and resilience.
The Earth Care Sangha is offered as a space for us to come together in a safe and supportive environment to share our feelings and to transform despair and helplessness, finding concrete ways to heal ourselves and all beings on this beautiful planet.
With a diverse and experienced team of facilitators, we welcome you to join us on the third Monday of every month between 7-8:30pm
Rooted in the Plum Village tradition, we will offer a guided sitting meditation, a reading or online teaching, and ample time for Dharma sharing in a small group.
With a diverse and experienced team of facilitators, we will draw on the wisdom and resources of Plum Village France, as well as the Earth Care resources, which can be accessed on the Plum Village UK website.
Please register your interest via Zoom.
