Biography

Anisah Amat received her MFA in Creative Writing and Poetics at Naropa University in 2017. Through her studies, she learned how to interweave mindfulness and writing practice. She learned the beauty and art of writing as meditation; writing being a practice that had been a part of her wellness toolbox since she was six years old. Anisah believes the power of writing and meditation can guide us back home to ourselves — to our wisdom, our love, to our own inner knowing. Her second poetry collection, migrating through the terrains, will be available in March of 2023. She lives in Denver with her husband and two daughters.
