Synopsis
Here we see Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh sharing the practice of mindfulness with 600 schoolteachers during a retreat at the University of Barcelona.
The teachers are invited to come back to themselves by practicing mindful walking, mindful breathing, mindful eating, total relaxation and noble silence.
Looking deeply into their personal suffering, and sharing it in a group, they are able to transform themselves.
Are they ready to go back to the classroom, to create a ripple effect of happiness in the world, starting with themselves and their students?
