ADHD and creativity
Send us a textIn this podcast episode, I talk about the relationship between ADHD and creativity. I share my own experiences growing and being creative from a very young age, and discuss how being creative could be linked to ADHD. A lack of inhibition and the ability to think outside of the box, which are common traits of individuals with ADHD, could contribute to their creative abilities. Research has shown that people with ADHD are more likely to conceive of original ideas, and daydreaming may also play a role in increasing creativity. I conclude by sharing examples of other famous creative people believed to have ADHD and challenge the listeners to consider their own experiences.🧠 Unlock the Power of At-Home Biofeedback Training with Muse! 🧠Muse is a research-grade EEG headband that serves as your personal meditation coach.

ADHD and exercising
Send us a textOver 10 years ago, I was overweight and didn't exercise. But then, I saw an ad to hike up Mount Kilimanjaro and impulsively signed up. The experience was tough, but it lit a fire within me. I started exercising and lost all my excess weight, ran my first half marathon, and even summated Mount Toubkal. Now, I exercise almost daily and understand the connection between a healthy body and a healthy mind. As someone with ADHD, I know how hard it can be to stay motivated to exercise. My advice: JFDI! Start small, use rewards, gamify your workout, choose something fun and enjoy the process. Remember, a healthy body leads to a healthy mind, especially for those with ADHD who are at a higher risk for obesity and Alzheimer's disease. 🧠 Unlock the Power of At-Home Biofeedback Training with Muse! 🧠Muse is a research-grade EEG headband that serves as your personal meditation coach.
