Transcript

Welcome to this brief meditation about sharing your neurodivergence.

Begin by finding a comfortable position and close your eyes if that feels right for you.

Take a deep breath in and sigh it out.

Repeat this a couple more times,

Letting each exhale release any tension you're holding onto.

Exhale acceptance,

Exhale apprehension.

Sharing your neurodivergence is a significant step and you may have mixed feelings about it.

Notice what emotions are coming up for you,

Perhaps apprehension,

Excitement,

Relief or a mix.

Begin to visualize yourself in a safe and supportive environment.

It could be somewhere in nature or in a location that makes you feel safe and comfortable.

This is a place where you feel heard,

Understood and appreciated for who you are,

Not the masked you,

The real you.

Remind yourself of the value you bring and the unique perspectives you offer.

Acknowledge that sharing this part of yourself is a personal choice and that you have the right to decide with whom,

How and when to do so.

As you prepare to share,

Envision expressing yourself clearly and confidently.

Picture the conversation unfolding in a positive and accepting manner.

Allow yourself to feel proud of your decision.

This is the only part in your control and prepared for any outcome.

Quietly repeat to yourself,

Be you,

Belong,

Be you,

Belong,

Be you,

Belong.

May this phrase remind you to accept,

Value and honor yourself.

Take one last deep breath in and exhale slowly,

Feeling ready to share your story with clarity and vulnerability.
