Valerie Brown is a dharma teacher in the Plum Village tradition founded by Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. She is also a leadership coach and former prosecutor.
This four-part series begins with an introduction to the Plum Village’s Three Earth Touchings practice, followed by each of the Earth Touchings individually. The first practice will be on connecting with our ancestors. The second will be on connecting with all people that are alive in the world. And the third practice is on letting go of the notion of a limited lifespan and body. This is a mindfulness practice to accompany the article, “How to Fight Without Hating.”
