The breath anchors our nervous system. Diaphragmatic breathing is incredibly powerful for reducing anxiety. Belly breathing also helps our blood flow move properly which is something an adhd brain struggles with. Our eating habits impact our mental health so intensely. Our gut microbiome is influencing how we feel and it directly communicates to our brain. If our diet is full of inflammatory or processed foods we’re not going to feel our best. If we’re skipping meals our blood sugar is all over the place and we’re running on cortisol which is going to make anxious feelings worse and it’s going to make it nearly impossible to focus. This can also make you addicted to cortisol (the stress hormone). Sleep is the basis of everything. Most bodies, especially females, function best with 7-9 hours of sleep. Adding more sleep during your luteal and menstrual phrase is also very important. One night of not optimal sleep impacts our decisions the next day and causes us to make more impulsive decisions, especially regarding junk food.
