Alonzo Davis

Alonzo Davis is a meditation teacher and creator of LifeLama, where he shares practical wisdom for meeting everyday life with greater awareness, acceptance, compassion, and presence. His approach has grown from more than 30 years of Buddhist study and practice, including extensive study in Tibetan Mahayana Buddhism through the Foundation for the Preservation of the Mahayana Tradition (FPMT), where he completed Discovering Buddhism and the Foundation of Buddhist Thought curriculum. He has also completed intensive Insight Meditation retreat practice at Spirit Rock Meditation Center. Alonzo’s meditations are grounded in a simple belief: meditation is not about escaping difficult thoughts, emotions, or circumstances. It is about learning to meet our experience differently. Through awareness, we can create space for acceptance, compassion, and wiser action. His guided practices intentionally include periods of silence and personal reflection, giving listeners room to experience the teaching for themselves. His work explores acceptance and letting go, awareness and awakening, and compassion and connection—bringing ancient Buddhist wisdom into the challenges of modern life. Alonzo approaches teaching as a fellow practitioner: not someone who has life completely figured out, but someone committed to practicing, learning, and sharing what he discovers along the way.
