Plum Village
Our primary resources come from the Plum Village website, and so we invite you to head over there, click on the Mindfulness tab, and browse. They offer teachings, podcasts, books, and even a Plum Village app for your phone, which many of us enjoy.
If you are new to Buddhism, or Thich Nhat Hanh, the founder of Plum Village, then our Vista stewards have their personal recommendations for getting started. All of us think you should join us some Saturday!
