New Documentary Teaches Mindfulness Skills to Children
Thich Nhat Hanh, Zen Buddhist Monk, beloved teacher to many Westerners and Easterners, author, and activist, is in the process of releasing a new documentary that teaches mindfulness skills to children.
It is “an animated feature documentary film based on the book ‘Planting Seeds: Practicing Mindfulness with Children by Thich Nhat Hanh & The Plum Village Community.”
“This feature documentary and animated film will give children and adults an embodied experience of peace and wellbeing, as well as effective tools for creating peaceful, happy lives, long after the film is over.”
I can’t wait to check out this film when it is released! For now, here is the trailer:
In order to complete the post-production of the film, the Peace Is The Way Film Team is in need of donations. Click here to help.
