Amma Thanasanti
After practicing meditation for nearly 50 years - including nearly 30 years as a Theravada Buddhist nun - Amma Thanasanti now teaches in a way that honors ancient wisdom while meeting the complexities of modern life. Her post-monastic perspective brings traditional practices into real-world contexts, making them accessible and relevant for everyone.
Amma's approach is trauma-informed, grounded, and welcoming—whether you're new to meditation or have practiced for years. She creates space to pause, to inquire, and to discover what becomes possible when we bring awareness to our everyday lives.
Here you'll find guided meditations, dharma talks, and teachings that support your path toward greater clarity, compassion, and inner freedom.
