Please join us at our weekly practice sessions: Friday Night Gathering

Sangha in the Park

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have had in-person gatherings outside in the park during the spring, summer, and early fall seasons. Announcements will be sent via email and posted on the Facebook page for details and any changes. We often have informal sangha gatherings for hiking, trips to the beach and retreats at the nearest Plum Village Practice Center: Blue Cliff Monastery.

Day of Mindfulness

The Community of Mindfulness New York Metro (CMNY) is part of a global network of sanghas composed of lay practitioners, dharma teachers, and monastics who practice in the Plum Village tradition. The CMNY hosts a monthly day of mindfulness (donation-based) on the 3rd Saturday of every month.

We occasionally organize retreats to mindfulness practice centers, such as to Blue Cliff Monastery in Pine Bush, NY. The next Sangha retreat will likely occur this September.

Keep an eye out for upcoming themed retreats, such as the Vietnamese retreat from August 7-11, 2024, or the New Years Retreat occurring in late December.

You can find upcoming in-person and online retreats on the Plum Village retreat calendar.
