Adult ADHD Tips – Navigating Uncertainty as a Neurodivergent Person

Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast - A Podcast for Neurodivergent Creatives. Navigating Uncertainty as a Neurodivergent Person. This podcast is an audio companion to the book "The Drummer and the Great Mountain - A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD." Dealing with uncertainty can be immensely triggering -- inducing anxiety, challenges with focus, and ultimately distracting us from what actually needs to get done. Uncertainty can manifest as disturbing world events, family health issues, financial fears, work setbacks... The list goes on and on. And, our brain does not like uncertainty. In this episode we'll explore practical techniques for navigating uncertainty -- getting ourselves out of the spin of tunnel vision, into greater emotional regulation, perhaps even finding real well-being in the face of external chaos. We may not be able to change the external in the moment, but we can fortify our nervous system to be more calm, even in the midst of uncertain outcomes.

Adult ADHD Tips – How to Feel Safe

Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast - A Podcast for Neurodivergent Creatives. How to Feel Safe. This podcast is an audio companion to the book "The Drummer and the Great Mountain - A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD." No matter who you are, we all have a very deep and profound desire to feel safe, peaceful, and secure. In this episode, we'll discuss how to hack your brain into feeling safe. The anxiety and fear mechanism is ancient, and has kept the human race alive so we could be here in this moment. However, this primal part of our brain, when subjected to the modern world, often detects physical threats where there aren't any, leading to a constant and low level feeling of anxiety. This can reduce our mental capacity and lead us into distraction, often shrinking our world and masking those positive opportunities that are available to us. Specifically, we'll discuss: The biological purpose of fear and anxiety The brain chemistry of feeling safe  Scientifically proven ways to feel safe and minimize anxiety Specific meditation practices that can quiet the mind and create deep feelings of safety and stability Long term strategies that can bring an overall sense of calm and peace into your life Links Mentioned in this Episode: (Workshop) ADHD Time and Task Management (Episode) Meditation Practice (Episode) The Brain Chemistry of Courage (Episode) Dopamine Detox (Episode) Stress Management and Addictive Behaviors (Product) Fitbit Charge 6 Health Tracker Don't see a player?
