FREE training here: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/signup___What happens when the thing you thought wasn’t for you, like meditation, turns out to be exactly what your brain needed?Kelly Smith is a meditation teacher, yoga instructor, podcast host, and the creator of Mindful in Minutes, which has guided over 23 million meditations to date. Diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia, Kelly grew up feeling like she didn’t quite fit anywhere. School was a struggle, friendships were hard, and her self-esteem took a major hit. But everything began to shift when, at just 16, she discovered yoga and mindfulness as a way to support her mom through breast cancer and to reconnect with herself.In this episode, Kelly and Tracy talk about why traditional meditation advice often fails ADHD women and what actually works instead. Kelly shares her unique approach to building a sustainable meditation practice that doesn’t require perfection or stillness. Sometimes it just takes a few moments of self-awareness to create a real shift. They talk about creative batching, emotional regulation, her color-coded systems, and why walking without your phone might be more powerful than you think.Whether you’re curious about meditation, skeptical of mindfulness, or simply looking for a way to feel more grounded, this episode offers a fresh and practical take. It’s about finding calm in ways that work with your brain, and creating space to come back to yourself.Resources:Website: https://www.yogaforyouonline.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yogaforyouonlinePodcast: Mindfulness in Minutes MeditationYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mindfulinminutes Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message If this podcast helps you understand your ADHD brain, Shift helps you train it.
