Happy Monday!
As a social media strategist and the D.C. Social Media Examiner for Examiner.com, my job is to know about social media. This summer, I created a PowerPoint presentation that provides an overview of social media. I have used it with my clients. The presentation also represents content from my upcoming book Sisterhood, the Blog: Soundbytes from the 21st Century Women’s Online Revolution (Summer 2010). Today, I loaded it up to SlideShare.net. Check it out below. Let me know what you think. I hope it helps you understand social media.
Peace, Creativity, Compassion, and Social Media Joy!

New Moon Affirmation Collage: Releasing old dreams, originally uploaded by anandaleeke.
Greetings All,
For the past week I have been working on releasing habits, thoughts, behaviors, and things from my spirit, mind, heart, body, breath, and life that no longer serve my highest good. It is an assignment my life coach/yin yoga teacher Yael Flusberg of Y Elements (http://yelements.com) gave me during our last session. It is an assignment that I must do every day in some way.
I am also using rituals like smudging , meditations, and yoga poses and breathing exercises that focus on the yogic principle of aparigraha (http://www.yogaatsantosha.com/Inspirations_santosha_yoga/Entries/2009/6/1_Entry_1.html). Collaging has also been a great visual affirmation. That’s why I created a releasing dead dreams collage. What I am discovering with this visual affirmation is some new spaces of peace inside of my spirit. I am taking it slow. It is a life process. Lighting candles and incense in my home also help me set the tone for my releasing process.
Are you releasing anything from your life?
Peace, Creativity, Compassion, and Releasing Energy,
Ananda
Greetings,
I invite you to watch a very powerful video featuring a diverse group of people and children reading the Charter for Compassion which was unveiled by British author Karen Armstrong today in Washington, D.C. See below. Click here for more information: http://charterforcompassion.org. My favorite part of the video is:
“We urgently need to make compassion a clear, luminous, and dynamic force in our polarized world.”
WOW!
What are your favorite parts?
Enjoy your day!
Peace, Creativity, and Compassion,
Ananda
Hi All,

HI All!

Happy Thursday!
Today I am celebrating my sorority Sigma Gamma Rho’s Founder’s Day (established in 1922 – www.sgrho1922.org) and the Charter for Compassion (http://charterforcompassion.org or http://twitter.com/thecharter). When I joined Sigma in 1983, I learned firsthand that in order to practice its motto of “Greater Service, Greater Progress,” I needed to have compassion in my heart. That’s why I am so excited about the Charter for Compassion. It is a reminder to give myself compassion so that I can share it with others through service.
My Art Every Day Month adventures this week have centered on collages and poems about compassion. Check out the video below which features my two collages. You can also hear me read two compassion poems. Enjoy!
Peace, Creativity, Compassion, and Service,
Ananda
