ADHD doesn't make it easy to relax.  It can feel almost impossible to do something like yoga or meditate and sleep can feel like an illusive foe to conquer.  In this episode I talk with Sarah Ivanhoe about just these things.  Sara has spent most of her life learning and teaching the practices of yoga, meditation, and sleep.  Listen as we discuss these and the relationship to ADHD.   Sara Ivanhoe: https://www.saraivanhoe.com/aboutVedic Yoga: https://www.vedanet.com/vedic-yoga-the-oldest-form-of-yoga/Yoga Nidra for sleep: https://www.yogajournal.com/meditation/your-brain-on-yoga-nidraSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/ExcuseMyADHD?fan_landing=true)

ADHD Awareness Month III

We all know that ADHD comes with many friends.  We also know that ADHD is easily misdiagnosed as many things and those things are also misdiagnosed as ADHD.  In this episode I am looking more closely at Learning Difficulties and some of the ways the symptoms overlap make it very easy to see how they are so easy to misdiagnose.  Though it is ADHD Awareness month co-morbidities are an important aspect of managing our symptoms.  We have to know and understand the whole picture and work on it all at the same time.https://dyslexiaida.org/attention-deficithyperactivity-disorder-adhd-and-dyslexia/https://dyslexiaida.org/dyslexia-basics/ https://www.additudemag.com/adhd-dyslexia-connection/#:~:text=About%2050%20to%2060%20percent%20of%20people%20with,dyslexia%20is%20not%20reading%20letters%20or%20words%20backwardhttps://www.verywellmind.com/is-adhd-a-learning-disability-4116126 https://totallyadd.com/dyscalculia-and-adhd/https://www.dyscalculia.org/diagnostic-evaluation/ld-checklist-pdfhttps://www.psychologytoday.com/us/conditions/dysgraphia https://www.aphasia.com/aphasia-resource-library/related-conditions/dysphasia/  https://www.understood.org/en/learning-thinking-differences/child-learning-disabilities/auditory-processing-disorder/understanding-auditory-processing-disorderSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/ExcuseMyADHD?fan_landing=true)

ADHD Awareness and Dyslexia

October is a month of many things one being ADHD awareness month.  Now, I know it’s not October quite yet but it will be in a few days and I don’t want to miss it.  If I wait until an October episode then this won’t go out until the middle of the month and that would kind of be a cheat to the importance of ADHD awareness.  This month there are many other things to bring awareness too.  I think we all know it is Breast Cancer awareness month.  But here are a few you may not know.  Some of these seem really fitting with ADHD awareness month some are just funny.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/ExcuseMyADHD?fan_landing=true)
