Book review: Mindfulness Prescription for ADHD

The Mindfulness Prescription for Adult ADHD: An 8-Step Program for Strengthening Attention, Managing Emotions, and Achieving Your Goals

By Lidia Zylowska, MD and Daniel J. Siegel, MD

 

(Reviewed by Rajnish Mago, MD)

While mindfulness practices are helpful for a variety of conditions, it is surprising that they are not very widely used for persons with attention deficit hyperactivity disorders (ADHD or ADD). The author, a pioneer in the use of mindfulness practice for ADHD, provides a PRACTICAL guide that walks the reader through a variety of practices. It progress step-by-step, week-by-week. In my opinion, this book should be very helpful to a broad range of persons suffering from problems with inattention and distractibility, both those suffer from ADHD and others.
