Ayya Anandabodhi first encountered the Buddha’s teachings in her early teens, igniting a deep interest in the Buddha’s Path of Awakening. She lived and trained as a monastic in the Forest Tradition at Amaravati and Chithurst monasteries in England from 1992 until 2009, when she moved to the US to help open more opportunities for women to live the monastic life. She took full Bhikkhuni Ordination in 2011. Her practice and teaching are guided by early Buddhist scriptures, living in community, and through nature’s pure and immediate Dhamma.

The Buddha said, "I teach two things, suffering and the ending of suffering". A deep dive into how we create suffering in ourselves and in the world and a pointer to the way out of this pattern.
Sometimes we get caught up in things that are better left alone, creating unnecessary stress. Other times, our stresses can be part of the natural process of growth.
