In Episode #53 of ADHD for Smart Ass Women, Tracy tackles the science behind meditation, specifically neuroplasticity. Tracy introduces the book Mindfulness Prescription for Adult ADHD, An 8-Step Program for Strengthening Attention, Managing Emotions and Achieving Your Goals* by Lidia Zylowska, MD.
Learn: what neuroplasticity is and how it affects not only our ability to learn but also the brain’s ability to change and adapt, when neuroplasticity occurs in our lifespan, several interesting examples of neuroplasticity, what one key factor is in neuroplasticity, how the concept of neuroplasticity has completely changed the thinking around meditation, what long-term meditators' brains look like in regions related to attention, self-monitoring, and emotional regulation, what long-term meditators' brains look like as they age, what attentional blink is and how it is affected by meditation, how long you must meditate in order to start seeing its benefits, what areas of the brain are enhanced by mindfulness or meditation training and why this is important to those of us with ADHD, and why meditation is especially important to those of us with inattentive ADHD, especially those suffering from Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria.
