Treating ADHD Using Self-Compassion
The idea of non-judgmental awareness, core but not exclusive to mindfulness practice, means seeing life exactly as it is. The effect of ADHD and executive function is profound. Hiding from how it feels won’t help. But ADHD is a medical disorder, not anyone’s fault. Without judgment and self-recrimination, what’s the best step to take right now?
Self-compassion is a complementary approach that may let every other part of ADHD care move forward. This episode talks about the importance of self-compassion, the benefits it offers to the ADHD brain, and ways to start putting it into practice.
