From 5th to 12th August, Plum Village will be hosting another wonderful International Wake Up Retreat. How can we balance our deep wish to engage in actions to help the world with our own personal spiritual journey in the contexts of the current climate crisis and wars? How can we find meaning and purpose in our life? How can we find an alternative, healthier, sane, and compassionate lifestyle?

Wake Up Lausanne proposes a “We Are Wildness” Wake Up retreat from the afternoon of the 31st July to the morning of the 7th August. We will spend a week in the majestic Swiss Alps, hiking every day (around 6 hours), sleeping under the stars, eating simple food, connecting with the wildness, around and within!

In the retreat, 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.

You are invited to join other young adults (ages 18-35 or so) for a time of practice, inclusiveness, and fun. 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.

In French: Nous vous invitons à participer à la Retraite Internationale pour les jeunes à la Maison de l’Inspir, 3 jours et 3 nuits de pratique de méditation. Nous vivrons en pleine conscience, retournerons à nous-mêmes pour regarder profondément, afin de nous occuper de nous, pour nous comprendre, pour nous aimer et ainsi nous pourrons comprendre et aimer les autres.

Join us for the fifth Wake Up Retreat for Young Adults in Ireland! Leave the city behind, get a breath of fresh air, and celebrate awakened living with a lively group of young mindfulness practitioners and monastics from Plum Village in Creagh Castle, Doneraile, North County Cork.

Would you like to enjoy the moments with peaceful steps, lovely smiles, stillness of sitting meditation in the early morning, hands tightly hold as well as joyful hearts of those who are sharing their happiness and aspirations in lives with each other? We all are connected in the world. The peace here will also mean the peace there. Let's come sharing these beautiful moments together in this 5 days International Wake Up Retreat “Be free where you are”. We welcome all the young people from 18 to 35 ages to discover the peace and love within and all around.
