PART 2: An actual 3 min meditation (starts at 2:15)
Today is about: Can people with ADHD and Executive Function challenges meditate, why does it even matter, and how to get started.
- Meditation has been the BEST thing for adhd/ef ever, because it helps me manage my attention/focus, and as a result, I have a better life in multiple areas.
- But resisted for years because I had a story that I can’t meditate, it doesn’t work for me, because I can’t stop thinking. I had excuses, and completely misunderstood meditation, and I definitely missed out.
- Here I discuss the BENEFITS of meditation, HOW to meditate in an easy way, and I will do a 3 minute meditation with you.
- Video 2 is JUST the meditation so you can practice any time with guidance.
- 333 MEDITATION CHALLENGE: Meditate for 3 days in a row, 3x a day, 3 minutes each time and see what happens. Comment if you want to share, it would mean a lot to me and others.
