===========================================
Plum Village: Zen Guided Meditation App – Main Categories
===========================================

The Plum Village app is split into four easy-to-use categories – meditations, talks, resources, and bells of mindfulness:

MEDITATIONS

Meditation is a deep practice that helps us generate peace and calm, master our mind, develop a healthy headspace, and get deep insights into ourselves and the world around us.

Meditations include deep relaxations, guided contemplations, silent meditations, and eating meditations. Whether you have a little time or a lot, and whether you want to be on your cushion or applying mindfulness in your daily life, there are meditations to nourish, inspire, and incorporate into your daily routine.

TALKS

Listen and learn from the wisdom of Thich Nhat Hanh and other Plum Village meditation teachers
Ask Thay includes hundreds of real-life questions asked to the Zen Master, like “How can we let go of anger? and “How can I stop worrying?” His answers are compassionate and infused with insight.

Dharma Talks are teachings given by Thich Nhat Hanh and others on how to bring Buddhist wisdom and mindfulness into our life. Rather than discussing theoretical concepts, they focus on direct and clear teachings to relieve suffering and create happiness in our day to day lives.

RESOURCES

In Resources you can find a library of daily practices, chants, poems, and songs. These bring to life the practices taught in Plum Village monasteries around the world and offer ways to bring mindfulness into our world, wherever we are.

BELL OF MINDFULNESS

In Plum Village monasteries bells of mindfulness chime at regular intervals. Everybody stops and takes three mindful breaths to pause from their thinking or talking, breathe, and return to their bodies. The Bell of Mindfulness allows us to have the same reminder on our phone.

We can customize the bell to chime at different time periods. Settings include:
• Start time / End time
• Chime intervals
• Bell volume
• Daily repeating schedule

Regular use of the Bell of Mindfulness will cultivate more calm and relaxation in your life.

Why not give the Plum Village app a try and see how you can benefit from it? The app is a digital companion on your mindfulness journey. Created as a gift to the world, this free app contains invaluable resources to guide you towards inner peace and freedom.

A wonderful gift

This app is so amazing. It offers talks, meditations, and other resources. I try to listen to it each day and it sets me up for the day ahead and keeps me grounded in my life. I am listening to the Kaira Jewell talks at the moment ‘We are made for these times’ as I am going through lots of transitions and am finding the teachings very helpful for navigating this time in my life. I also enjoy the talks and meditations by the other teachers and by Thich Nhat Hanh. I have tried other meditation apps, including, some very well known and high profile ones but I find that this app offers me a coherence, clarity and depth that works best for me. Thank-you for the offering!

Heartfelt Buddha blessings to you all and thankyou 🙏

I wouldn’t presume to review.
I would only like to express my sincere gratitude to you for this precious gift (App) and for your teaching. You have enabled us (my partner and myself) to renew our commitment to Buddhism and to mindfulness insight meditation. And we are smiling towards Plum Village (we live in Esperaza, Aude, SW France) and greatly appreciate your presence just 3 hours away from where we live! Your App is a truly wonderful resource and the many contributors from your community we have come to look forward to hearing everyday as a vital part of our daily practice.
We love you for your gift. Thankyou all so much. We hope to come and see you next year.
Best
Douglas and Regina 🌺🙏🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️x

I love the Plum Village App

I would recommend everybody to download the Plum Village App as it is amazing. You will find so many interesting recordings on meditation, self love, compassion, mindfulness etc.; a beautiful gift to yourself day after day. You can listen to it online, or download your favourite recordings. Thich Nhat Hahn is an inspirator and a very wise man, so are the many other teachers. As there’s so many recordings of different teachers, you can pick the voice you like best to relax. And you know what it’s all for free, on donation basis.
Plum Village Team Thank you, thank you! 💗
