I'm giving a talk on supporting ADHD people with herbs this coming Saturday in Dublin, details below:
IRH Members and non-members are invited to a special talk at the AGM by herbalist Jo Goodyear (she/her), on Saturday 22nd November.
Location: Conference Room, Red Stables, St Anne’s Park, Dublin
Time: 1.15 pm
Fees: Free for members | €25 for non-members
Duration: 90 minutes
ADHD in Clinical Practice:
In this short talk, Jo will outline what Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHA) is from a lived perspective (often very different from what the diagnostic manual says!), what causes this neurological difference and how we can support people whose brains work differently, using our familiar herbs and less familiar lifestyle coaching. She will be digging into polyvagal theory to look at how we as herbalists can better support people with ADHD. The biggest point to understand is that ADHD, despite its name, is not a disorder but a different way of experiencing the world that is not favoured by our current productivity focused society, so how do we work with people to improve their lives, rather than attempt to fit them into "normal" parameters?
Please note: Attendance at this talk can count toward your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) points.
