At last I can return to this series of posts! We are now at the heart of the matter: what can you do about life with ADHD? The Buddha saw the Eight Fold path as the sets of behaviors that would allow someone to live a life that would be increasingly free of unmet desires and temporary pleasures. The path that I will be laying out is actually a combination of treatment you would receive from a Doctor and Therapist, as well as new behaviors to enhance the quality of your daily life. In brief, here is the Eight Fold path as seen through the eyes of Multi-Modal treatment for ADHD:
The path is divided into three parts:
Part One: The Bodily Truths:
1. Right Sleep
2. Right Nutrition
3. Right Exercise
Part Two: The Mental/Psychological Truths
4. Right Acceptance & Forgiveness
5. Right Therapy
6. Right Medication
Part Three: The Practical Truths
7. Right Organization & Prioritization
8. Right Coaching and Support
In the next few posts, we will discuss these Truths in some detail. Each has a positive impact on the life of someone suffering from ADHD. Taken together, they are a path to a better life and a brighter future.
