Home is where the heart is! This is why we can let ALL of those big feelings out and navigate our many thoughts racing through our heads throughout the day! 

In this episode, we will talk about Dr. Ned Hallowell's famous quote, "Living with an ADHD brain is like having a ferrari for a brain, with bicycle breaks! Can you realate!? I know I can! I ask reflection questions, and share some tools and strategies for the home environment to raise awareness in order to moving through your day with less frustration and more clarity! 

How does your mind and body feel at home during different parts of your day?

What does my mind and body need to succeed at home? 

Where do your thoughts take you?

How does your body feel if thoughts start to go in a downward spiral?

We discuss choosing to drive your thoughts in a direction that will help us learn and grow...

Follow a flow- Create visual routines that work best for you (Your brain craves structure, it's just tricky to create it sometimes.) 

Figure in breaks (mind and body)- We need to be mindful of our need to refuel our brains throughout the day (rest, movement, nutrients)!

Find connections- This will help with regulation, finding calm, and collaboratively problem solving when things feel tricky!
