But, as my guest Coach Lara Dawn helps us understand today, that label is somewhat of a misnomer.  The truth is that ADHD is neither a deficit of attention (actually, people with ADHD have an abundance of attention), nor a disorder. In fact, some people consider ADHD to be a superpower. Lara is the founder of the wonderful ADHD Village, a community that offers brain-based, science-backed support for families raising children with ADHD.She supports moms in learning how to eliminate stress while navigating their children’s ADHD, so...2022-03-1258 minMoms Changing the WorldMoms Changing the WorldEp 43- Calming the ADHD Family and Putting Mama First Retreat Founder -Lara DawnYou know I’m all about supporting and empowering mothers!

Cognitive DissonanceIf you've ever felt discomfort over a decision you've had to make, tried to justify a choice you've made, or regretted something you've done because you thought to yourself "I don't know why I did that, that's not me!" you have likely experienced cognitive dissonance.Cognitive Dissonance Theory was presented by a social psychologist, named Leon Festinger, in 1957.Cognitive dissonance is a term for the state of mental or psychological discomfort we feel when two or more modes of thought (beliefs, values, or attitudes) contradict each other - when our modes of thought are out...2022-01-3037 minTeaching Little BrainsTeaching Little Brains66. Selective Attention & Inattentional BlindnessHave you ever found yourself staring into the fridge, looking for something that was right in front of your nose all along?Do you ever wonder why your kids, or students, can't seem to just focus on one thing, or can't hear you when you call their name 100 times, but can remember all the details of what you told them 4 1/2 years ago?It may have something to do with Selective Attention and Inattentional Blindness.Adults are quite skilled at focusing on one thing, and disregarding all other "unimportant" information, but it turns out...2021-12-3127 minTeaching Little BrainsTeaching Little Brains65. Play Is Good For Your BrainWhat does "play" mean to you? Do you consider yourself a playful person? Do you engage in play on a regular basis, or are you resistant to play?Many of us understand that play is good for children's development, but do you know how, or why? Do you know that play is also good for adults?Play reduces stress, helps strengthen relationships and trust, enhances imagination, develops social skills, and even increases productivity and creativity.And, it doesn't have to be extensive or extravagant, simple things like putting on a silly h...2021-11-0734 minTeaching Little BrainsTeaching Little Brains64.

Toxic Positivity BeGone!Wait, what?!  Positivity is toxic?It can be. Positivity can become toxic when it is used to mask, suppress, avoid, or cover up negative emotions. It's the belief that no matter how dire or difficult a situation is, people should maintain a positive mindset, or put a positive spin on all experiences. It's a "good vibes only" approach to life. Toxic positivity denies people the authentic support that they need to cope with what they are facing. It paints negative emotions as a failure or weakness.The problem is that denying c...2021-08-1431 minTeaching Little BrainsTeaching Little Brains61. AngerWhat makes you angry?  What really makes your blood boil?How do you feel about anger itself? What do you do when you feel angry?We’re taught to avoid, is anger. We learn that anger is bad. It’s scary. It’s destructive. But, the truth is, that anger is just an emotion, like any other we experience as humans. It’s a vibration in our body. It’s neither good, nor bad. It’s just energy in motion.I talk a lot about feelings and emotions in my coaching...2021-08-0146 minTeaching Little BrainsTeaching Little Brains60.

Mirror Neurons and Energetic Coupling: Why We're All Just a Bunch of Copy Cats.Have you ever been in an audience of something and someone coughs, and it seems to start a chain reaction of coughing. Or, you’re talking to someone, and they scratch their nose, so then you scratch yours?Ever wonder why?Well, it may be, at least partly due to something called, mirror neurons. Mirror neurons were discovered accidentally, in macaque monkeys in 1992. A mirror neuron is a neuron that fires both when an animal acts and when the animal observes the same action performed by another. They are neurons inside your mind th...2021-06-1227 minEpic Success with Dr Shannon IrvineEpic Success with Dr Shannon IrvineTrusting the Process in Your Coaching Business with Sarah NykorukHave you ever felt called to something that you KNOW is right for you - but the resistance you feel is so overwhelming that you can’t seem to step forward fully into that calling?

Watch Out For Dangling Carrots! - External Motivation Can Hurt!Hello Teacher Brain!If I told you I'd give you $1000 to work out every day for a year,  do you think you'd do it? The answer might surprise you! Studies show that external rewards (like money), can actually have negative effects on motivation! Not only that, but they squelch creativity, encourage cheating and can result in exploitation of the reward-based system.Like most things, the answers are within.Intrinsic motivation is long-lasting, and has positive benefits to self-esteem, resilience, achievement, and engagement.In the 1940s, Professor Harry F.

We are letting our subconscious run the show - and we don't even know we're doing it. Those automations are formed by the repeated thoughts and feelings we had as a child - based on what we saw and experienced of the people around us. Your beliefs run the show.

Crying is Good For Your HealthWhen was the last time you had a good cry?Did you know that our tears contain natural pain-killers?Emotional tears are made of higher concentrations of toxins that accumulate during stress.  The hormones, including adrenocorticotropic hormone & leucine enkephalin (a natural painkiller), get excreted from the body through crying, suggesting that crying helps in balancing stress hormone levels. Additional studies also suggest that crying stimulates the production of endorphins, another of our body’s natural pain killers, and “feel-good” hormones.”Stress tightens muscles and heightens tension. Crying helps to purge those pent up em...2021-04-1932 min
