When you were a kid would you have been open to trying meditation techniques as a way to help ADHD?

Maybe if it was presented in a way that interested me.

I think it’s more about teaching kids how to utilize their energy in a productive way. This can work really well in a hands-on or interactive educational environment. There are alternative learning programs out there already that are great for kids with ADD/ADHD or who are just alternative thinkers/learners. I think these systems need to be made a part of the standard educational system, or at least kids should be evaluated early on and put in those programs if that’s where they would do better.
