How Do You Experience ADHD?

Let's Have A Closer Look!

ADHD has been on the rise over the past months; fueled by global events and a digitized lifestyle. Could it be that Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a warning signal from the brain to avoid overload?


Self-diagnosed or professionally identified ADHD might appear like a sickness that asks for a cure. Most geniuses could easily be diagnosed with ADHD, based on their passion and intensity. 


From a brain perspective, Attention Deficit translates into "Focus intensively only for 10-15 minutes and change the topics frequently to be a highly efficient multitasker with an improved intensity of focus."


My brain has a different understanding: Hyperactivity means 'My body has an URGE to move more and sit less'! Running, swimming, stretching or even a few jumping jacks do miracles for my attention span.


What if we added the dimension of play to this mix and find joyful movements that make you smile and help you focus? Now your brain relaxes and is ready for more action.
