Organizer Ananda Leeke
Organizer of Open Your Heart to Mindful Creativity
Ananda Leeke discovered mindfulness, self-care, and wellness 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. During Ananda’s healing journey, she studied and practiced meditation, yoga, reiki, journaling, art-making, and creative writing. They helped her develop self-care practices and become resilient. As a result, she became a certified yoga and mindfulness teacher, reiki master and sound healing practitioner, digital wellness educator, and artist-in-residence for the Smith Center for Healing and the Arts at Howard University Hospital and Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
Today, she helps high achievers and mission-driven companies, organizations, and communities outsmart stress, overcome burnout, tap into creativity, embrace digital wellness, navigate change, become resilient, and thrive mindfully. She serves as the Chief Mindfulness Officer of Ananda Leeke Consulting, LLC, a wellness company that specializes in personal and professional development. She also leads the Thriving Mindfully Academy, an online education platform: AnandaLeeke.com/Academy.
Her books, Love’s Troubadours, a yoga-inspired novel; That Which Awakens Me, a mindful creativity memoir; and Digital Sisterhood, a mindful technology memoir, are available on Amazon. Currently, she is writing her third memoir, Thriving Mindfully as the REAL ME: A Memoir of Resiliency and Joy. Visit AnandaLeeke.com and follow @anandaleeke on social media.
