From April 19 to April 26, 2025, French-speaking practitioners gathered from many corners of the world to join this precious retreat across the three hamlets of Plum Village, France.
It was a week of coming home to ourselves, to one another, and to the present moment. Together, we practiced sitting and walking meditation, mindful eating, Dharma sharing, deep relaxation, and joyfully serving in mindful service. We were held by the collective energy of mindfulness, nourished by the beauty of nature in springtime, and supported by a community of spiritual friends.
As Thay reminds us, “The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When our mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers.” During this retreat, we offered that gift to ourselves, to each other, and to life.
We invite you to enjoy these moments captured in photos — glimpses of peace, connection, and blooming hearts.
