Listen "Mindfulness Through Nature: ADHD-Friendly Meditation with Natural Objects (Without Music)"
Episode Synopsis
Join meditation teacher and ADHD coach Ying, aka me, for a grounding mindfulness practice that uses nature as your anchor. This gentle, sensory-rich meditation is perfect for ADHD brains seeking a concrete way to experience and practice non-judgmental awareness. I first learnt this practice from my good friend, also a great meditation teacher, Lisa Pedscalny.
What You’ll Need:Any natural object (rock, leaf, flower, pinecone, feather, etc.)Or simply use your hands if no natural object is available
What You’ll Experience:Explore mindfulness through sight, touch, and physical sensationPractice radical acceptance using nature as your guideLearn to observe without judgment – the essence of mindfulnessEnd with the beautiful poem “Wild Geese” by Mary Oliver
This practice adapts traditional mindfulness techniques to be more accessible for neurodivergent minds by providing tangible focus points and multi-sensory engagement. Whether you’re new to meditation or looking for ADHD-friendly practices, this guided session offers a peaceful way to connect with the present moment.
