With Dr. Mark Bertin
Developmental Pediatrician and Author of The Family ADHD Solution
ADHD affects the quality of people's lives in a myriad of ways including increased stress levels, struggles at work and school, and challenges in personal relationships. Recent research shows that mindfulness meditation and related stress-reduction techniques may improve executive function and attention, reduce stress, promote cognitive flexibility in problem solving, foster emotional well-being, and mitigate ADHD effects through enhanced self-awareness and self- regulation. Each session of this class includes mindfulness exercises taught in a manner suitable for those with attention issues as well as those new to meditation. The class will also include education about ADHD, from the neuroscience to the impact on day-to-day life.
The event is co-sponsored by the ADD Resource Center.
