ADHD, trauma and the Solstice: Find your shine without burning out

Season 2 Episode 63 Published 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Description

Do you wish you could help heal the world but find yourself overwhelmed? Learn to Feel Better, Be Better and DO Better. Subscribe for trauma-informed and ADHD-friendly self-care ideas every Tuesday.

Are you navigating trauma and ADHD? This episode is for you. As we approach the Summer Solstice, it's a powerful time to reflect on what you're giving your energy to and how you allow yourself to shine.

But what if you don't feel ‘shiny’? Or have the energy you wish you did? Learn to honour your current capacity, especially when living with a trauma history and an ADHD brain.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How to release the pressure to perform and embrace self-compassion, even when your energy feels low.
  • Practical, trauma-informed, and ADHD-friendly ways to help your nervous system rebalance, including simple breathwork and mindful movement.
  • Why allowing yourself to rest and simply be (even when hyper-vigilance or performance conditioning makes it challenging) is essential.
  • How regulating your own system helps you contribute more effectively to the world without burning out.
  • Why embracing community and collective action is especially important when you feel the weight of global challenges.

Empower yourself to Feel Better, Be Better and Do Better.

The Feel Better Every Day Podcast

Learn from the self and Self* care practices the professionals depend on.

With a mixture of solo and interview episodes, your host, Eve Menezes Cunningham (author of 365 Ways to Feel Better: Self-care Ideas for Embodied Wellbeing) shares trauma-informed and VAST / ADHD-friendly self and Self* care ideas to help you:

• Feel Better (regulate your nervous system and do the things that help you create a life you don’t need to retreat from)

• Be Better (accept yourself completely with love, compassion and kindness – you don’t need to do a thing) and

• Do Better (turn what hurts your heart into action to support your family, organisations, communities and the world at large)
