Symptom support for the adhd mind

Neurodivergence is a super power with the right support and care. Finding the most supportive combination of interventions can feel overwhelming; but with diligence and compassion, support is always within reach.

Divinely ALIGNed

When and where we are in the universe influences our human experience. Ignoring the environmental influences on our life reduces our ability to tap into our unique potential.

Acknowledge. Listen. Invite. Ground. Nourish.

CALM Movement

To embrace our biology and compassionately support our nervous system in times of distress, we can practice the CALM model of movement.

Connect. Anchor. Listen. Move.

GROW method

Let’s work together to ground, regulate, optimize, and work.

Nourish the Body

Individual circumstances vary, but general concensus emphasizes balanced meals colored by varied foods packed with nutrients. Some imperfectly realistic recipes for success may begin simply with the phrase, “fed is best”.

Step One. If you are underfeuling your temple, please start with feeding your body with self love. If the grips of overwhelm are too tight, just eat what you can when you can. Repeat as needed.

Step Two. If you’ve reached step one and are ready to expand to new levels of learning, there is always more biohacking to embrace that inner super hero (or villian, if you so choose).

Movement is Prescribed

At Rooted Focus, emphasis on nourishing every body system is foundational. Movement is one crucial intervention that can nourish all systems without negative side effects when performed at the right time, dose, and amount. Listening to your intuition without the lense of bias from life experience is tough at first. With time, it will become second nature. At the start of your journey, use the prescribed movement of your trusted professional.

What workout is best? It depends, of course.

Resiliency for Free

Neuroplasticity is an incredibly beautiful super power engrained in each of us. There are countless methods to help rewire brain, enhance emotional intelligence and regulation, and improve resilience of the mind and body. One tool has been studied for decades and has shown to enhance mental health, decrease stress hormone levels, improve self-awareness, strengthen nervous system regulation, and support decision-making.

The cost? Free.

What is this magical ritual? It’s called journaling. And yes, it takes time. And it takes consistency. But remember the cost? Lucky for us, the benefit-to-cost ratio, therefore, is indescribable.

Cyclical Nutrition

Days 1 to 5 of my cycle typically involves low levels of estrogen and progesterone and supporting the body with iron and magnesium-rich foods is a winning combination.

Cyclical Vocabulary

Harnessing the super powers of the feminine cycle is simpler than many masculine powers have made it out to be in the past. Enhancing education and vocabulary is an instrumental step for many struggling with the ability to listen to and support the body.
