Plum Village: Zen Guided Meditation App – Main Categories

The Plum Village app is divided into four user-friendly categories: meditations, talks, resources, and bells of mindfulness.

Meditations

Meditation is a profound practice that helps us cultivate peace and calm, master our minds, develop a healthy mindset, and gain deep insights into ourselves and the world around us.

Meditations include deep relaxations, guided contemplations, silent meditations, and eating meditations. Whether you have a short moment or an extended period of time, and whether you prefer to be seated on a cushion or practicing mindfulness in daily life, there are meditations available to nourish, inspire, and integrate into your routine.

Talks

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

Dharma Talks are teachings given by Thich Nhat Hanh and others on how to incorporate Buddhist wisdom and mindfulness into our lives. Rather than delving into theoretical concepts, these talks focus on direct and clear guidance to alleviate suffering and foster happiness in our day-to-day existence.

Resources

The Resources section contains a library of daily practices, chants, poems, and songs. These bring to life the practices taught in Plum Village monasteries worldwide and offer ways to integrate mindfulness into our lives wherever we may be.

Bells of Mindfulness

In Plum Village monasteries, bells of mindfulness chime at regular intervals. Everyone pauses their thinking or talking, takes three mindful breaths, and returns to the present moment. The Bell of Mindfulness feature allows us to have the same reminder on our phones.

The bell can be customized to chime at different time intervals, with settings including start time, end time, chime intervals, bell volume, and a daily repeating schedule. Regular use of the Bell of Mindfulness helps cultivate calmness and relaxation in our lives.

Why not give the Plum Village app a try and witness the benefits it can bring? The app serves as a digital companion on your mindfulness journey. Crafted as a gift to the world, this free app provides invaluable resources to guide you toward inner peace and freedom.
