Happiness Is Here and Now: Engaged Mindfulness in a Complex and Changing World

In this talk senior monastic Dharma teachers of scholar, poet, peace activist, and Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh’s Plum Village Tradition teach us that there is no way to happiness, happiness is the way. We learn how to balance the complex demands placed on us by our family, school, workplace, and society with applied mindfulness practices like mindful breathing, walking, and eating.
