A Holistic, Nature-Based Approach to Attention, Regulation and Wellbeing
ADHD has become one of the most discussed and diagnosed conditions of our time. For many individuals and families, medication provides a level of effective support. However, it often comes with side effects, unanswered questions, and a lingering sense that something deeper may also need to be addressed.
Parents especially are searching for sustainable, healthy ways to support their children – not only to manage symptoms, but to nurture focus, resilience, emotional balance and long-term wellbeing. This workshop offers a broader, more complete lens.
In this 2-hour session, Dr Rafeena will explore ADHD through the framework of classical Ayurvedic psychology, examining the relationship between the nervous system, sensory input, behaviour, digestion, lifestyle rhythm and mental clarity.
