Welcome to this brief meditation about working in a team environment.
Begin by finding a comfortable position and close down your eyes if that feels right for you.
Take a deep breath in and exhale fully.
Repeat this a couple more times,
Letting each exhale release any tension you might be holding on to.
Inhale connection,
Exhale overwhelm.
Working as part of a team can be both enriching and challenging.
Notice any feelings you have about teamwork,
Whether it's excitement,
Anxiety or a mix of emotions.
Visualize yourself in a collaborative environment.
Who's around you?
What does the place look like?
What role do you play?
Picture yourself contributing your unique skills and perspectives while also supporting others in their roles.
Remind yourself that your contributions matter and your ability to work well with others enhances the team's overall success.
Acknowledge that teamwork involves both giving and receiving and embrace the opportunity to share ideas,
Listen to others and work together toward a common goal.
As you continue to picture engaging with your team,
Focus on how you can maintain open communication,
Mutual acceptance and your own honoring and self-respect.
Picture yourself handling challenges with grace and celebrating achievements together.
Quietly repeat to yourself,
Be you,
Belong,
Be you,
Belong,
Be you,
Belong.
Let this phrase remind you of your important and essential place within every team that you're a part of and the value of your authentic collaborative efforts.
Take one last deep breath in and exhale slowly,
Feeling ready to contribute and show up in a way that suits you.
