Wake Up is a retreat for young mindfulness practitioners aged 18 - 35(ish) to gather in community and nature, to heal and restore ourselves. It will be held June 25 - 29, 2025.

The theme this year is "To Love and to Be Loved".

Enjoy live Dharma talks, sitting meditations, walking meditations, eating meditations, living together joyfully, simply, and happily. There will be time for hikes, listening to one another, bonfires, and touching a spiritual dimension in our life.

Our annual Wake Up retreats are part of the active community of young practitioners in the Plum Village tradition called Wake Up.
