Summary

When we listen to the meditation bell, teaches Thich Nhat Hanh, we calm our thoughts and restore ourselves. Plum Village Meditations brings you four authentic meditations just as they are taught at this celebrated Zen sanctuary and peace center in southern France.
These direct teachings from Plum Village include a 45-minute bell-sounding meditation introduced and rung by Thich Nhat Hanh, plus three additional guided meditations led by Sister Jina van Hengel: conscious breathing for calming the mind and cultivating joy; body appreciation and attunement practice; and transforming your anger into seeds of kindness.
An ideal support for a daily sitting practice, these meditations grow more fruitful each time you return to them. Digitally recorded live at Plum Village.

This is perfect for those wanting guided meditation inspired by the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh. There are some with just the mindfulness bells and some gently guided. I loved the sound of the bell and I think the reviewer who felt it was distorted was actually hearing the resonance of the bell which I like a very large bowl in real life. The recording seems to my ears quite accurate.
The guided meditations are quite beautiful and I found the one on learning to love my parents and myself very powerful and helpful. I will be keeping this "book" on my phone to use every day and look forward to using it over and over again. Wonderful!

Thich Nhat Hahn

If you’ve listened to books by Thich Nhat Hanh and Sister Jina van Hengel before, how does this one compare?

This is less guided than the others

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

This promotes a sense of calm and relaxation.

Any additional comments?

Thich Nhat Hahn is a great buy if you want to meditate and relax. This particular session is predominantly Thich Nhat Hahn ringing a bell, it makes it more realistic way to actually meditate because there is less interruption or gimmicky sounds. It is it's simplicity that makes is one of the better meditation audios that I have used.

Good for relaxing, a realistic meditation guide

Each meditation starts with a brief introduction followed by the exercise. The first meditation is a free-form meditation of about 30 minutes with a bell chime in the background to help synchronise breathing. The remaining three meditations are guided and based on breath work. The last one is a short exercise focused on releasing anger or resentment towards one’s parents. Overall, a very useful meditation aid with simple and clear instructions. There is no elaborate imagery or music but these are very effective nonetheless.
