What if one of the often overlooked keys to being productive is being lazy? That’s the case you will hear made today by Brother Pháp Hữu, a very impressive young zen Buddhist monk.
Brother Pháp Hữu is a senior Dharma teacher in Thich Nhat Hanh’s International Plum Village Community and abbot of Upper Hamlet, the monks’ community in Plum Village Monastery, a practice center founded by Thich Nhat Hanh in southwest France. Born in Vietnam, he emigrated to Canada as a child. He began training with Thich Nhat Hanh at the age of thirteen when he first entered the monastery to become a monk. Thich Nhat Hanh gave him the name Chân Pháp Hữu, which means “True Dharma Friend.” For more than ten years, he accompanied Thich Nhat Hanh on his international teaching tours as his attendant and assistant. Today, Brother Pháp Hữu is deeply committed to building community and continuing Thich Nhat Hanh’s legacy, bringing his teachings in particular to businesspeople, families, and young adults. Brother Phap Huu is passionate about basketball, music, and developing new approaches to teamwork, leadership, mentoring and coaching, and is a beloved co-host - with journalist, leadership coach, and workshop facilitator Jo Confino - of the Plum Village podcast, The Way Out is In.

This is just one example of how Buddhism can make you a better " whatever are you already are" (insert religion) This period of "laziness" is actually ancient Jewish wisdom! The same concept in the Sabbath in Judaism from sundown on Friday until sundown on Saturday, focusing on gratitude and mentally preparing yourself for the upcoming week ahead. It's actually the foundation of the modern weekend that all of us take for granted, but most of us continue to stay busy and catch up on chores etc. When we should be resting! It's important regardless of anyone's faith or beliefs to take a break so that you can refresh yourself! I personally try to incorporate things from many different spiritualities and faiths because there is wisdom in so many traditions. Thank you 🙏 (that's a bow, not a prayer) 🙂

What a wonderful treat. I remember lazy days at Plum Village - I did a retreat in 2009 there. Lovely interview and Dan, I will now always associate smiling at others with not thinking of my abs!❤
