Kingston Sangha

The Kingston Sangha is a non-profit and donation-based group of mindfulness practitioners that come together to breathe and cultivate peaceful living.

The sangha's practices are based on the Plum Village tradition and the teachings of Thich Nhat Hanh. The Kingston Sangha is a non-profit, donation-based community of mindfulness practitioners who come together to breathe, practice, and cultivate peaceful living. Founded in 2016 by Order of Interbeing members Hang Nhan and Sarah Martin, our sangha practices are rooted in the Plum Village tradition

and the teachings of Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh - a beloved spiritual leader, poet, and peace activist known globally for his pioneering teachings on mindfulness, global ethics, and peace. We gather in person on Monday evenings from 7pm-8:30pm for practice. A typical evening includes seated and walking meditation, mindful movement, readings, deep relaxation, Dharma sharing, and joyful singing. The Kingston Sangha gratefully accepts financial contributions to help support our weekly gatherings, retreats, and other events. Donations can be offered in cash during our weekly in-person meetings or by e-transfer to [email protected]. IN-PERSON MEETING DETAILS
