SUMMARY:Clown and the Art of Mindfulness
DESCRIPTION:UK Lay Dharma Teacher Teri West and Carol Thompson of Nose to Nose are offering an opportunity to go deeper into finding your inner clown and Plum Village mindfulness with a 5-day residential course in East Sussex this summer. \nLet go of the image that your imagination is already forming of the circus clown and instead think about how the practices of deepening self-awareness\, building self-confidence and enjoying a lightness of heart that Nose to Nose courses bring are ideal companions on the path of Plum Village mindfulness practice. \nYou can read Teri’s account of her experiences in learning and working with Nose to Nose in this blog \n  \n\n  \nThis from two wonderful WakeUppers who enjoyed a short introduction to the Nose to Nose style of clowning on a recent retreat. \n  \nPlaces on these workshops and courses are limited to twelve\, to allow individual attention and time for self-reflection. \nClown workshop sessions will be interspersed with our familiar retreat activities; morning and evening meditation practice\, walking in mindfulness\, total relaxation and mindful meals. \nFor Further information please contact teriwest@plumvillage.uk

SUMMARY:Earth Care Sangha - Living Simply\, Building Community
DESCRIPTION:This month facilitated by Claire Debenham and Jan Cook \nLiving simply\, healing ourselves and connecting deeply with others\, we can build more resilient communities for our times and take good care of Mother Earth. What helps us go in this direction? Building caring communities that enjoy the simple things of life takes patience\, tolerance and time.  \nFortunately\, skilful community builders are everywhere – you are probably one of them. \nCome and enjoy a deep relaxation and an inspiring teaching. Share about your own aspirations\, challenges and experiences and hear where others are on this path.  \n\nEarth Care Sangha – A Sangha For Our Times\nWe have to wake up together — Thich Nhat Hanh \nMany of us are aware that we live in times of great peril for life on Earth but also of great promise for change. It is easy to be overwhelmed by feelings of helplessness\, despair and sorrow for what is being done to the Earth. But by practising together we can make a positive difference\, and strengthen our resilience and joy. In response to our individual and collective need to do something\, Earth Care Sangha is offered. \nIn small Dharma sharing groups we can explore our feelings and speak openly in the company of others who share our concerns\, safe in the knowledge that we do this without judgement or conflict. We hope that by sharing freely in this way\, we can help each other find concrete ways to transform and heal\, cultivate joy\, and strengthen our understanding of interbeing with Mother Earth. \nGrounded in the Plum Village tradition\, and with close links to the Earth Care Steering Group\, Earth Care Sangha is truly a sangha for these times. We invite you to join us\, enjoy the practices\, and help shape its future. Let’s wake up together! \nPlease email earthcare@plumvillage.uk with any feedback\, questions\, suggestions or offers of help. \nEarth Care Resources \n  \nPhoto by NASA on Unsplash \n  \n\nGuided Meditation: The Four Elements | Sister Chan Duc
