Viet Wake Up Summer Camp in Chicago, Illinois

You are invited to join other young adults (ages 18-35 or so) for a time of practice, inclusiveness, and fun. The Wake Up movement was founded by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh as a way for young adults around the world to come together and practice mindfulness in order to take care of themselves, nourish happiness, and contribute to building a healthier and more compassionate society. During this time together we will explore the practices of sitting, walking and eating meditation, while building community through Dharma sharing and simply being together.

Fort Flagler State Park is a 784-acre marine camping park surrounded on three sides by 19,100 feet of saltwater shoreline. The park rests on a high bluff overlooking Puget Sound, with views of the Olympic and Cascade Mountains. Many historic buildings remain at this 19th-century-established military fort. Only 2 hours northwest of Seattle, Fort Flagler State Park has something for everyone.

This retreat is an opportunity to develop the practice of mindful living, to bring joy, solidity and freedom into the world. We grow the strength and capacity to create loving relationships, to build a community of supportive friends, to care for the Earth and contribute to positive change in the world. We will be sharing daily meditation, yoga, mindful meals, listening to teachings, hikes in the forest, and discussions, as well as have time to enjoy swimming, music-filled bonfires, starry nights, and canoeing – surrounded by 240 beautiful acres of MorningSun Community.

The program in Thai Plum Village lasts for 7 days, from 19 to 26 July 2019, where you will have the opportunity to interact and learn with all the monastery activities taking place throughout the week. The monastery will have special sessions dedicated to young people with topics about "Youth, Love and Ideal" and "Difficulties of modern youth."

At first glance, the beliefs of different religions seem to be very different. It may give the impression that complete opposites collide. Religious and cultural peculiarities may obscure what we all share and what we can learn from each other.

In this retreat, we want to get to know representatives and believers from different religious communities. We want to meet with openness, joy and acceptance, learn from each other and practice together. All interested people are welcome to become ambassadors of interreligious and intercultural dialogue. 

We're going camping at Shaver Lake! Do you like being warmed by a camp fire as you sing, waking up to the morning sun and experiencing total relaxation on the lake? We do too. Come join Wake Up members from across the West Coast in our great camp out: three days of mindfulness, meditation and wilderness. We've got a few sites at Camp Edison (that are right next to the lake!) set aside for Wake Up use. Spots are limited,…
