Bio to come

Jessica Amos

Hello! I’m Jessica Amos. I want to live in a world where everyone knows how valuable and worthy of love they are. Always
As a meditation teacher, I am regularly featured on Insight Timer, the #1 meditation app in the world, and internationally known for my TEDx Talk about healing anxiety through presence and self-connection.
When I’m not writing, recording new meditations or teaching classes in Salem, Oregon, you can find me watching movies that make me cry + laugh in equal measure, taking obscenely long walks (is all day ever too long?) and planning my next escape from the internet.
I'D BE HONORED IF YOU'D JOIN ME AT MY NEXT CLASS!
