What does it mean now?
The Coronavirus pandemic affected us all in many ways and how we design our individual journey will be very different. I have the feeling that the feeling of belonging for many of us has probably shifted since the pandemic compared to the one to which we had belonged to.

It is not surprising that the predictors of belonging have shifted due to the fact that many employees work from a distance due to pandemic; Relationship structure, social connection and self -compassion.
After I changed my job shortly before the pandemic, my feeling of belonging was fluent, as I knew It was time to leave HR Yoga. I feel absolutely connected with being able to offer the practice of yoga and have different connections to the rooms in which I practice. I know that this will probably change over time if I build deeper relationships with studios.
belonging n. "An affinity for a place or a situation".
I fully agree with the results of the report, which revealed a change in the structure of relationships and the creation of social connections to create belonging; While pandemic, when the yoga studios were closed, I lost the interaction with both the studio workers and with the students and had to find ways to build relationships with new studios because the timetables understandably had to change. For me, social connection was an important part of pandemic and, albeit virtually, it was both important and deeply worthwhile for me to speak to friends during the blocking. A 14-day video call with two friendly yoga teachers, which I could look forward to, definitely helped me to create a feeling of belonging. There was real understanding, empathy and support for the situations of the other, which was really valuable.
Why is belonging important?
"The creation of a sense of belonging for all employees is crucial for companies to get the best out of their teams. A feeling of belonging is one of the most important psychological needs that must be fulfilled so that employees feel connected to their company and the basis for building an effective team" says, says ricky Somal, Deputy director for organizational development and inclusion at the Isle of Wight NHS Trust.
Most yoga teachers are independent and often work in several studios who do not have the festive basis of a location as an employee where you can see the same colleagues all week. But for both corporate employees and for self-employed people, this feeling of belonging looks different according to the Covid 19 restrictions, since both groups move in a world after pandemic. This can still be made more difficult by how safe people feel that they are really perceived as individuals.

How do you navigate when displaced?

- practice yourself-friendliness: The past 15 months have been a lot to fight for all, so you have shifted your feeling of belonging or you lack practices that help you relax and feel better. Colleagues, friends and companies with whom they were connected may have moved away during the pandemic due to the effects on business, not to mention personal decisions that were made for well -being (mentally/financially or both).
- create good habits: As already mentioned, self-love is important because we move in a world that is constantly in flow. Consider some of the following mindfulness exercises to cope with fear and emotions in connection with this change and to build on your self -care routine:
- hiking in nature-looking for a local green area and maybe leave your cell phone at home

- yoga or meditation practice-both exercises can only last 10 or 15 minutes, a yoga posture counts as a yoga practice. This is helpful if you have little time or have a full schedule.

Take the time to recognize or restore your sense of belonging, it is understandable that your affinity has changed to a place in view of the past 15 months and our experience with pandemic. Practice self -love as you control the associated trip.
