Amma Thanasanti

Amma Thanasanti began meditating in 1979 under the guidance of Jack Engler, Ajahn Chah, and Dipa Ma — teachers whose influence continues to shape her work today. She spent 28 years as a Buddhist nun, including 20 years in Ajahn Chah monasteries, and has taught intensive retreats worldwide since 1996. As founder of Awakening Truth and the Integrated Meditation Program, she teaches practitioners to recognize trauma, repair attachment wounds, and identify narcissistic patterns — understanding what meditation alone can’t heal.
