28:12 The Importance of Relaxation

Summary

In this episode, we explore the connection between dysregulation and ADHD, emphasizing the importance of addressing both the nervous system and belief systems to improve overall well-being. I dive into common beliefs that contribute to dysregulation, such as "I' m behind and I need to catch up", and offers strategies for shifting to more regulating beliefs.

Takeaways

  • ADHDers often experience chronic fight or flight due to dysregulation.
  • Dysregulation can exacerbate ADHD symptoms, making them harder to manage.
  • There are three layers of regulation: nervous system, thoughts and beliefs, and behavior.
  • Shifting beliefs can lead to better regulation and improved functioning.
  • The idea of being 'done' is a myth; life is ongoing.
  • Scarcity mindset can lead to feelings of desperation and overwhelm.
  • The dangling carrot philosophy keeps individuals in a cycle of stress.
