218 - Mindfulness Done Differently: Tanya Roberts on Sensory-Friendly Stillness for Autistic & ADHD Women

In this Self Care September: Exploration of Stillness episode of Beyond Chronic Burnout, host Carole Jean Whittington welcomes Tanya Roberts, AuDHD artist, meditation teacher, and founder of Mindfulness Done Differently. Tanya’s journey through panic disorder, undiagnosed ADHD and autism, and years of feeling like a “meditation failure” led her to a powerful realization: mindfulness doesn’t have to mean “sit still and breathe.” Instead, she created Mindfulness Done Differently—a playful, sensory-friendly approach that integrates movement, fidgeting, art, sound, and self-expression.Together, Carole Jean and Tanya explore: 🌱 Why conventional meditation often fails autistic & ADHD women 🌱 How sensory play and movement can transform mindfulness into something sustainable 🌱 The role of community, co-regulation, and advocacy in burnout recovery 🌱 Practical tools to build individualized mindfulness practices rooted in self-acceptanceTanya’s story is a reminder that stillness doesn’t always look quiet—and that accessible, customized approaches can help autistic and ADHD women reclaim peace, presence, and energy.👉 Take the Spicy Pepper Burnout Quiz (free) and discover your burnout level—from Poblano Pepper Level 1 (a little heat) to Ghost Pepper Level 5 (you’re so hot, you’re not).
