About us

We are a small group of native English speakers who meet every third Friday of the month in
the afternoon and/or evening for meditation, walking meditation and dharma sharing.

Our activities

We meet in various locations, in one of our living rooms in Amsterdam or Alkmaar or in nature in Castricum.

We are experienced practitioners and each of us contributes to the meeting by suggesting a
theme, introducing a dharma talk, leading mindful movements or qigong, sharing what
walking meditation means and explaining guidelines for a safe and welcoming dharma
sharing practice.
When possible we eat a potluck supper together, reading the five contemplations and eating
the first fifteen minutes in silence.

How to join us

We invite both new or experienced practitioners in the Buddhist Plum Village tradition to join
us whenever you can. Please send us an email telling us who you are and a bit about
yourself and your experience with meditation in the Plum Village tradition, and we can tell
you when and where our next meeting is.
