Why this matters

This small ritual helps create presence and emotional alignment before conversations begin. It's a low-friction way to build psychological safety in recurring team routines.

How to try it
  1. At the beginning of your next team meeting, pause and ask everyone to take 1 minute to silently write down their current mood or mindset.
  2. Allow the silence. Do not rush.
  3. Optionally, ask if anyone wants to share - but don't force it.
  4. Proceed with the meeting as planned.
