Simple Mindfulness

Thich Nhat Hanh does a fantastic job on presenting the practices of Buddhism. In this video you'll find his lecture on mindfulness quite insightful, or at least I found it insightful!



In this first talk of a week-long mindfulness retreat for people of color, Zen Master the Venerable Thich Nhat Hanh – whom Martin Luther King, Jr. nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize – gives instruction in the basic mindfulness practices of sitting meditation, walking meditation, and awareness of the present moment.


Some other lecture videos worth looking into:

Thich Nhat Hanh - Throwing Away
