As research reveals, ADHD is not so much a deficit of attention, but rather more of a self-regulation issue. But is learning to mind your manners actually a form of self-regulation? In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper (https://digcoaching.com) interviews Dr. Ari Tuckman (http://adultADHDbook.com) about the byproduct of minding your manners. Simple manners are behavioral, and attention exercises that can help those with ADHD build self-regulation skills. Try a few for yourself, like holding a chair for someone to sit, younger folks minding their elders, waiting to eat until everyone at the table is served, waiting your turn, or saying please and thank you. If this topic of manners speaks to you, then your values are aligned and you’ll definitely want to listen to this episode.
