How to Feel Safe and Loved with Amma Thanasanti

In this very special episode, we sit down with Eva’s personal mentor of two years, Amma Thanasanti. Formerly living as a fully ordained Buddhist nun for 28 years, today Amma guides others in the path of embodied awakening—bringing together deep meditation, nervous system repair, and attachment healing to help people feel truly safe, seen, and at home in themselves.

Through Amma’s stories—including an unbelievable near-death encounter with a bear—this conversation explores the ways early attachment wounds shape our nervous systems, how safety can be reclaimed through somatic practices, and how reimagining our origin stories can transform not only our minds, but our physiology.

This episode is less of an intellectual download and more of a transmission. If you’ve ever longed for deep connection, struggled with overwhelm, or felt like your nervous system was living in a permanent state of hypervigilance—this one is for you.

🌀 In this episode, we explore:

What real safety feels like in the body—and why many of us have never actually experienced it
How Amma re-imagined her origin story through “belly bonding” ceremonies with the Earth
The role of the pelvic floor in nervous system regulation, trauma, and embodiment
The three-pillar framework for attachment repair, developed by Dr. Dan Brown and David Elliott
The difference between telling yourself you’re safe and actually feeling it somatically
The subtle but profound impact of living with an insecure attachment style
Why some people retreat from relationships—not because they don’t want connection, but because their system is stuck in overprotection
