About the Author

Phap Xa (Brother Equanimity) is a Dutch monk ordained in Plum Village by Thich Nhat Hanh in February 2003. He lives and teaches in the European Institute of Applied Buddhism (EIAB) in Germany, hiking in the many surrounding forests. A couple of times a year, he shares the most beautiful trails with many people attending hiking retreats, and he leads Zen hiking retreats across the US and abroad.

Ordained in 2003 by Thich Nhat Hanh, Phap Luu (Brother Stream) leads mindful backpacking retreats in nature around Deer Park Monastery in Escondido, California, US; Joshua Tree National Park; the Sierra Nevada; and on the Appalachian Trail. An advisory board member for Harvard University's Thich Nhat Hanh Center for Mindfulness in Public Health, Brother Stream has been active in many fields, including helping start Wake Up, the Plum Village movement for young people; Happy Farm, Plum Village’s organic farming community; and Wake Up Schools since its inception in 2012 to bring mindfulness to schools.
