Neurodivergent Mindfulness with the Mindfulness Association
The Mindfulness Association is introducing a new online peer-led space for members who identify as neurodivergent or are exploring whether a neurodivergent profile is relevant to them.
Neurodivergence is an umbrella term that refers to brains that process experiences differently, and covers conditions such as autism and ADHD. As more is understood about these conditions, many adults are becoming curious about whether they fall within a neurodivergent profile.
We want to create a safe informal space that is inclusive to people who might have a different experience of mindfulness and related practices due to neurodivergence. There is an ever-expanding online resource for mindfulness and neurodivergence which we can draw on to inform our exploration.
This space will be held by Jane Kellock. Jane had a late assessment of autism and ADHD in middle adulthood. She is currently exploring how she approaches mindfulness through those lenses, and how best to tailor mindfulness, compassion, insight and wisdom practice to support the tricksy way her mind and brain work.
In the group, we will strive to maintain a neurodivergent-affirmative and non-judgemental attitude to support a compassionate journey of exploration and sharing.
Do please join us on our compassionate journey!
We will meet online each month on the first Tuesday of the month (2nd Tuesday in January), the first three dates are: Tuesday 5 November, Tuesday 3rd December and Tuesday 7th January. Please contact info@mindfulnessassociation.net to register your interest and to receive the Zoom meeting links.
