Get to know Ambika

I am in love with the mystery of being alive. My greatest joy is guiding others to rediscover their natural rhythm — that quiet, knowing place beneath the noise of thought.

My passion weaves through every story I tell, every page I write, and every moment I share with an audience. Whether I’m speaking, painting, singing, or teaching, I invite people into a deeper conversation with themselves — one where the mind softens, the heart opens, and peace becomes a lived experience.

I am most fulfilled when someone looks at me with awe and says, “I finally felt stillness.” These moments remind me that the path of guiding others inward is sacred.

What nourishes me? Watching the sky change colors. Digging in the soil with my bare hands. Gliding through antique cities and admiring their architecture. Singing while bouncing on my trampoline. Sharing soulful meals with new friends. Smelling jasmine on the wind and skating like no one is watching.

When I was in ninth grade, my English teacher told me I would never amount to anything. I struggled deeply with spelling and felt defeated by language — until I was given a gift that changed everything: meditation. Introduced to it at age six, I learned early on how to witness thought rather than be ruled by it. That single shift became the compass for my life.

Years later, the computer helped bridge what once seemed impossible, and I now stand as the author of six award-winning and bestselling books, released through my independent publishing label.

My sixth book is a meditation on love: the kind we give, the kind we seek, and the kind we must cultivate within ourselves to truly receive it. Through friendship, family, and heartbreak, I’ve discovered that self-love is not optional — it’s the foundation of everything.

Today, I teach others how to tame the mind, reframe thought, and unlock the stories waiting inside them — stories of healing, purpose, and peace.

Tailored for modern professionals, this talk demystifies meditation and offers immediate tools that improve communication, spark creativity, and reduce stress. Participants leave with a deeper understanding of the mind and how to work with it by treating it like a trusted ally, not against it.

Ideal for: Corporate wellness, stress & resilience retreats, leadership training, and TED-style panels.

  • Clear understanding of Thought Loops and how to interrupt them.
  • Techniques to access stillness, even during stress.
