Adults and teens living with symptoms of ADHD often believe that medication is the only or best solution. The fact is there are many natural approaches that can make a difference, leading to the ability to reduce or eliminate medication in some cases (always with the assistance of your doctor). Many people have found that brainwave entrainment, for instance, lengthens the period of time that the ADHD medication is effective during their day.
1. Make sure you are sleeping well. Avoid caffeine and create a good sleep routine and stick to it. Adequate, quality sleep allows the body and mind to correctly repair and create chemicals that support a focus. Without quality sleep, even a person who does not suffer from ADHD will feel scattered and unfocused.
2. Take a few minutes at the beginning of your day to think through how your day will unfold. This goes a long way toward feeling more in control, and reduces stress. Many people with ADHD find that if they begin their day by visualizing how they want it to unfold, that their day goes much more smoothly which increases their feeling of being focused and in control.
3. Eat properly to keep your blood sugar balanced throughout the day. Blood sugar spikes cause stress and anxiety which lead to increased ADHD symptoms. Poor blood sugar management is well known to make people feel foggy, scattered and unfocused. Take good nutritional supplements as there are a number of vitamin and mineral deficiencies that affect ADHD.
4. Get more exercise. Why? Moving the body in intense, sustained exercise daily increases the production of feel-good chemicals in the brain such as serotonin and beta-endorphins. Out of shape? Start where you are, and always check with your doctor before beginning an exercise routing.
5. Try brainwave entrainment. You can create the optimum brain state for reducing the symptoms of ADHD by using brainwave entrainment recordings specifically designed to address ADHD, and those for reaching deep meditative states. Brainwave entrainment recordings have been scientifically proven effective through decades of research, and using the right combination of protocols will train your brain to create the pattern of a focused person, quickly, naturally, and without drugs. - 14130
