Stillness Happens When I Move with Music

ADHD Education

I have discovered that in order to be still in my mind, so I can process, understand and discern what is happening, I have to be moving.

Movement through exercise and music are the mechanisms that gives my brain the ability to slow down the bombardment of stimuli overwhelming me and gain new clarity where chaos once existed.


If I had stayed with my old belief that the only way to be still is by sitting in a lotus position with my arms resting on my knees with the palms of my hands facing upward, I would have created a barrier that would have prevented me from discovering how I naturally can be still in my mind.

Through trial and error, I discovered what works for me. It is the total opposite of what I had believed for so many years.

I now KNOW that for me to be still, I must be moving, especially when I need to process lots of chaotic thoughts and stimuli.

Movement, music and exercise are the magical mechanisms which provide me with a platform of stillness that empower me to create clarity every day.
