My name is Leonie Lam and I am a career coach,
Corporate trainer and speaker.
The purpose of this meditation is to help you visualise your next presentation.
I personally wish you peace,
Calm and success in your upcoming presentation.
Please close your eyes as it will help you with your visualisation.
I will now invite a sound of the bell.
Sitting in a chair or sitting on the ground,
Visualise you are sitting like a mountain.
Tall and strong like a mountain.
Take a moment to make yourself a little bit more comfortable.
We will begin with three rounds of breathing exercises.
Breathing in,
I know I am breathing in.
Breathing out,
I know I am breathing out.
Breathing in,
I know I am breathing in.
Breathing out,
I know I am breathing out.
Breathing in,
I know I am breathing in.
Breathing out,
I know I am breathing out.
Repeat the following affirmations either silently or aloud.
I am confident.
I am confident.
This is about creating a connection with my audience.
This is about creating a connection with my audience.
Everyone is happy and engaged.
I wish for everyone to be happy.
I wish for everyone to be happy.
I can do this.
I can do this.
I can do this.
Take a moment to visualise you are walking into the presentation room.
You walk slowly into the room with all your presentation tools.
There is no one in the room.
You have plenty of time to prepare for your presentation.
You slowly connect with how your body is feeling in the room.
You set up your laptop and open up the presentation slides.
You place your presentation tools on the desk.
You place your presentation tools on the table,
Pen,
Paper and notes.
You check all the technical requirements.
All is working well.
You have everything ready to go,
Including a glass of water for yourself.
You take a moment to slowly walk around the room.
You feel more confident and comfortable being with the space.
You stand at the front of the room,
Taking slow,
Deep breaths.
Now I invite you to set a clear intention for your presentation.
It might be,
I will engage everyone in the audience.
I will share information that will help everyone today.
I will deliver a presentation that is valuable and impactful.
Now bring your attention back into the room.
You feel organised.
You feel ready.
Visualise people are arriving.
You greet people with confidence and a smile.
Using their names where possible.
The audience take their seats.
You slowly walk to the front of the room.
You feel a little nervous and you remind yourself,
It is normal to feel nervous.
Feeling nervous means I care about my work.
I am prepared.
I can do this.
You begin your presentation with a warm welcome.
You might start with a question to engage the audience.
Or share a fact or story to gain the attention of the audience.
You communicate clearly with confidence.
You can see people listening,
Nodding and smiling.
You feel that you have connected and engaged the audience in the first part of your presentation.
You feel confident and at ease.
You continue to communicate clearly and calmly.
You deliver the key points of your presentation.
You continue to ask questions to the audience to keep them engaged.
You acknowledge their responses and relate it to your content.
The audience are now more focused.
You can see them leaning in to listen to you,
Writing down notes and giving you good eye contact.
You feel more confidence in yourself and in your presentation.
You can see you are making progress.
You slowly reach the end of your presentation.
You end on a strong and positive note,
Leaving a lasting impression.
You invite questions and respond clearly.
You can see people listening and nodding.
You feel happy and content that you have responded to all the questions.
Your presentation has come to an end.
You see people are happy and energised.
You see people walking out of the room with smiles on their face.
You feel happy and content with yourself.
You pat yourself on your back and say to yourself,
I did my best today.
Great job.
Slowly bring your attention back into your body.
Noticing all your body sensations.
Noticing the physical space around you.
Thank yourself for making time for this practice.
And silently say,
I am grateful.
I am grateful.
Congratulations,
You have completed the visualisation of your next presentation.
Believe you can achieve and you will.
You can do this.
I personally wish you all the best in your upcoming presentation.
