When’s the last time you allowed yourself the space to dream, imagine, and create? Come explore how to open your heart to your own creativity through the power of mindfulness. During the workshop, Ananda Leeke, a mindfulness teacher, author, and artist, will help you explore your inner archetypes (or personalities) and the role they play in your creativity through deep breathing exercises, meditation, journaling, and discussion. The takeaways include ways to tap into your intuition, imagination, and nurturing energy as growth opportunities during the autumn season.

Ananda Leeke is an award-winning Thriving Mindfully Coach, an artist, an author, a Human Design Doula, and an ordained interfaith minister. Ananda discovered mindfulness when her career as a lawyer, an investment banker, and a digital communications professional stressed her out, caused burnout, and did not produce the level of success she expected. As a result of her healing journey, she learned to navigate change, discovered her own resiliency, and became an artist-in-residence for Smith Center for Healing and the Arts at Howard University Hospital and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, a certified mindfulness + yoga teacher, a digital wellness educator, and a reiki + sound healing practitioner. Today, she helps busy and stressed people nurture, transform, and celebrate their life, relationships, and career with mindful self-care, digital wellness, creativity, and Human Design. As the founder and Chief Mindfulness Officer of Ananda Leeke Consulting, a wellness company, she leads the Thriving Mindfully Academy, an online learning platform and membership site. She also hosts and produces the Thriving Mindfully Podcast. Her books, "Love’s Troubadours," a self-love and yoga-inspired novel; "That Which Awakens Me," a mindful creativity memoir; and "Digital Sisterhood," a mindful tech memoir, are available on Amazon. Currently, she is writing “Thriving Mindfully as the REAL ME: A Memoir of Lipstick, Loving Kindness, Joy, and Everything In Between” (2022). She is a proud alumna of Georgetown University Law Center, Howard University School of Law, and Morgan State University. She is a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc.
