#38 Summer Stories of Love, Joy and Grief: Our presenters Brother Phap Huu and Jo Confino are back after a short hiatus, with an episode covering their own stories from a summer that has been both joyful and unsettling.
An eclectic mix of topics - from the first post-pandemic (and sold out!) summer retreats at Plum Village; weddings and family reunions - to collective awakening; interbeing and civilisation collapse; what they’ve learned, and how the practice of mindfulness has helped them through the ups and downs.
The episode ends with this short meditation guided by Brother Phap Huu.
