Welcome back to ADHD-ish. If you are feeling a bit “off”, upset, depressed or easily triggered, this episode is for you.

Most of the advice we hear on managing ADHD traits has to do with disorganization, forgetfulness, distractibility and impulsiveness, but the emotional dysregulation that is also part of ADHD affects many of us just as much and can really throw us off in both our personal and professional lives.

Hey, It’s OK to not be OK, it’s understandable to be upset, depressed and to want to pull the covers over your head or punch the pillows.

But, you have a business to run, so how do you get, and stay regulated during trying times? Here are the 5 key takeaways from this episode you won't want to miss:

Exercise for resilience: I bought a Peloton to eliminate excuses, but also to hop on and burn off frustration and irritability but you can accomplish the same with a brisk walk.
ADHD-Friendly Meditation: Yes, meditation IS possible with an ADHD brain! Learn how to start a practice that suits you and why it's a game-changer for emotional regulation.
Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT): Ever heard of tapping? This strategy can be used to maintain your calm, but also as emotional first aid when you get triggered.
The Importance of Routine Self-care: making sure we get enough sleep and hydration does more than we think to help us manage strong emotions
Pro-social emotions to up-regulate: gratitude, pride, compassion & simple ways to remember to do so
Setting Boundaries: With the holidays approaching, boundaries are crucial. Learn to protect your emotional space from toxic interactions and enjoy a more peaceful season.

A special Thank You to Connie Vanderzazen and Sugarwish for demonstrating care, compassion and gratitude with a special gift package of teas this week.
