Think People With ADHD Can’t Practice Transcendental Meditation? Wrong! They Can, and Get This… It Helps

Drug cocktail… sounds illegal, right? Not if you have ADD/ADHD. Whether you’re 50, 25, or 5, if you’re diagnosed with an attention disorder you’re likely to wind up taking a myriad of medications, side effects included. Aaron Axelrod found another way to deal with his ADHD.

The Video: This video was produced by DLF.TV, a branch of the David Lynch Foundation, a non-profit organization founded for the purpose of bringing the scientifically proven stress-reducing practice of Transcendental Meditation to at-risk populations such as inner-city students, veterans with PTSD and their families, women and girls who are victims of domestic violence, and others.

The Technique: Transcendental Meditation is a simple, natural, effortless technique practiced 20 minutes twice each day while sitting comfortably with the eyes closed. It is easy to learn and enjoyable to practice, and is not a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle. Over six million people have learned it — people of all ages, cultures, and religions — and over 350 published research studies have found that the TM technique markedly reduces stress, anxiety, and fatigue, and promotes balanced functioning of mind and body.
