I have been taught that mindfulness is the worst thing possible for ADHD. As so much of managing the disorder is blocking out extraneous data.

It is true that one of the hallmark symptoms of ADHD is difficulty with attention regulation, which can make mindfulness practices challenging for some individuals. However, it is not accurate to say that mindfulness is universally harmful for those with ADHD. In fact, some research has suggested that certain mindfulness-based interventions may be helpful for individuals with ADHD.

Mindfulness involves paying attention to the present moment in a non-judgmental way, which can help individuals with ADHD to become more aware of their thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations. By developing greater awareness of their inner experiences, individuals with ADHD may become better able to regulate their attention, emotions, and behavior.

That being said, mindfulness practices are not a one-size-fits-all solution, and some individuals may find them more challenging than others. Some people with ADHD may benefit from mindfulness practices that involve movement or sensory experiences, such as yoga or deep breathing exercises, rather than traditional seated meditation.

It's important to work with a licensed mental health professional to determine whether mindfulness practices are appropriate for your specific needs and how they can be best incorporated into your overall treatment plan for ADHD.

A 2011 study published in the Journal of Attention Disorders found that mindfulness training improved attention and working memory in adults with ADHD. Another study published in the Journal of Child and Family Studies in 2014 showed that an 8-week mindfulness meditation program improved attention and emotion regulation in children with ADHD and their parents.

In addition, a 2015 review of the literature on mindfulness-based interventions for ADHD found that these interventions may be helpful for improving attention, self-regulation, and quality of life in individuals with ADHD. However, this review also noted that more research is needed to better understand how mindfulness interventions can be best tailored to the needs of individuals with ADHD.

It's important to note that mindfulness practices should always be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for ADHD, and it's essential to work with a licensed mental health professional to determine whether they are appropriate for your specific needs and how they can be best incorporated into your overall treatment plan.
