ADDitude Webinar: Mindfulness, Meditation and Self-Regulation for ADHD

ADHD brings with it intense emotions, impatience, and stress — and our inability to regulate these feelings affects everyday life as well as our most important relationships. We overreact to situations and feel angry or dejected due to real or perceived criticism. We have trouble calming down and sometimes react in ways that we later regret.

Mindfulness and related contemplative practices offer a powerful counterbalance to these feelings. They are valuable tools that aid in stress reduction, self-awareness, cognitive flexibility, self-compassion, habit change, and more. And here’s the good news: Contrary to popular belief, these practices do not require a still mind and body. When these practices are integrated with a proactive approach to physical health, they can create a stable emotional foundation that supports comprehensive, evidence-based ADHD care.

In this webinar, you will learn:

• How ADHD impairs executive function and contributes to emotional dysregulation
• About the clinical importance of addressing emotional health as a foundational step in ADHD treatment planning
• How unmanaged emotional reactivity disrupts adherence to evidence-based ADHD interventions
• How to evaluate the role of mindfulness and contemplative practices in promoting emotional self-regulation and cognitive flexibility
• How to apply specific mindfulness-based strategies to support comprehensive, individualized ADHD care across clinical settings.
