ADHD is a neurobiological condition that even in the presence of best intentions has a significant impact on a person's ability to plan and follow through on tasks and projects. People who have this condition are often very creative, passionate and intelligent, but unable to live up to expectations of themselves or of others. Typical motivators for getting things done such as degree of importance, rewards or consequences don’t work for the ADHD person’s “interest based” nervous system. This experience has been even more challenged by the stress of the pandemic. In this class you will learn how ADHD shows up, the brain challenges that underlie it and what can be employed to get things done.
CLEAR YOUR CLUTTER
We all become attached to possessions. We think some things may be useful someday, we find them aesthetically pleasing or they hold sentimental memories. It could also be that we are afraid to let go. Eventually some of these possessions become a burden. In this class we will explore patterns and behaviors and present alternative perspectives and logistical solutions to facilitate the de-cluttering process.
UNDERSTANDING YOUR CHILD WITH ADHD
Do you find yourself frustrated by your child with ADHD even though you really want to understand and be supportive? Wonder why he/she cannot keep track of assignments or follow through on responsibilities despite your reminders, instructions and consequences? We invite you to join us into the world of a neuro-diverse ADHD brain, so you can be better equipped to support him/her in a manner that works and facilitates communication and understanding.
HOW TO MANAGE YOUR ENDLESS TO-DO LIST
Do you struggle to see the end of your To Do list, frustrated by the items that never get any attention, feel like only the urgent tasks get your attention? If so, come explore ways to recalibrate your approach to tackling the list and consider aspects of planning and executing tasks that addresses these struggles.
