Affirmations for ADHDers

The importance of changing the inner dialogue

Hi friend,

I’ve been thinking a lot about how ADHDers tend to speak to themselves… and it’s not very pretty. I’m guilty of it too. No one in my life is as mean to me as I am. I want better than that. I NEED better than that - and so do you. Self-compassion is a skill. I want to share a few affirmations for you - ways to reverse the inner dialogue.. but first, a poll.

Recent research shows that a positive mental state is linked to higher levels of health, including lower blood pressure and reduced risk for heart disease, better blood sugar levels, and longer life.

Here are some ways to shift the dialogue. Jot down your favorites and repeat as necessary. Save them somewhere useful or create a few of your own:

1. My differences make me valuable

2. I am capable of so many things

3. My memory is strong

4. Being playful is a necessity in my life

5. I choose to focus on peace today

6. It’s okay to ask for help

7. It’s okay to have hard days

8. I take things one step at a time

9. I will not push myself into burnout

10. I will rest when my body asks for rest

Affirmations like these have played an important role in how I manage my ADHD (In addition to therapy, exercise, coaching, etc)…which is why I’m so excited to announce that pre-orders are now available for my 52-Card ADHD Empowerment Deck!
