Awesome Accountability Teams
By Leo Babauta
Looking for an accountability team? These are new or existing teams looking for members, whose leaders recently underwent a training session and who I think will be awesome.
Review the info for each team, find the team that best fits your situation, and click the link to join!
I highly recommend that everyone in this program join a team or form their own. It’s one of the most powerful tools in creating habits in Sea Change.
UPDATE: Many of these teams are now full. But there are a bunch of member created teams over on the Teams Tab.
In addition you can always form your own team. If you need some resources to help you run your team you can check out these guides:
Group Formation Worksheet, Sea Change Facilitation Guide , Sea Change Group Policy Guide , Sea Change Leadership Questionnaire
If you’d like to be a part of a future round of leadership training: Go Here to find out more.
The Mindful Insights
The team will be about creating mindfulness as an overarching habit. We will use a mindful approach to each of the monthly themes in the Sea Change Program. At the beginning of habit formation, mindfulness is a critical element.
The team members should ideally be located in Sydney to facilitate face-to-face meetings. However, thanks to Skype location doesn’t have to be a limiting factor. Diversity and strong numbers are important.
In terms of commitment, we’re looking for a sincere commitment to mindfulness and a genuine desire to collaborate towards the team goals. A commitment to building a strong team culture is important.

This will give you a good idea of what we are about!
We have team members from all over the world. Some are regulars, some just drop in and join us for a day or a month, and that’s just fine with us. No commitment asked.
Team Members Needed: This is an open team and anyone is welcome to join. No need to ask if you can join: just jump in!
Ideal Meeting Times:We don’t have meetings so the forum is our way of keeping in touch and motivating each other. And it works well: we celebrated our 1st anniversary on December 4th!
Team Members Needed: We have 3 active members and a fourth who just posted once. Me, Unmoisenhabitude, and Girlwithwings.
I would welcomes 4 more members, for sure.
Ideal Meeting Times: tough because I’m in NYC, Unmoisenhabitude is in France, Girlwithwings is in Australia and travels like crazy on gigs. We haven’t had a meeting but I’ll admit I haven’t tried to set it up.
Team Policies: it’s been really loose. we encourage each other to practice and/or play our instruments as consistently as possible, have goals, post regularly.

Those of us in recovery from the addiction of acquiring and hoarding have been on the left end of the normal curve in terms of clutter behaviors. Consequently, they require additional awareness and redirection towards more sustainable skills and habits.
