ADHD is a kind of “loss of control over your attention”.

Meditation is “getting control over your attention”.

So you see the connection there.

    I don’t think we’re talking about different things. I achieve a peaceful state of serenity when emerged in a chaos that distracts the majority of my chaotic energy - then I can focus and indulge in a peaceful calm.

    We’re going to the same place but taking different roads - neither is better, but some roads are easier for different people to walk.

    There is no single right way to meditate.

      No really, we’re talking about something different.

      In this meditation that I’m referring to, there is peace, but that is only one facet. There is also control and understanding of attention. That’s central.
