• Protective Paralysis: A Kinder Look at Procrastination
    2025/07/28

    Do you ever find yourself frozen, unable to start a task you know you need to do? That feeling of being stuck, often labeled procrastination, can carry so much shame. Tonight, we gently reframe this experience, especially for the ADHD and AuDHD mind, not as a flaw, but as a form of "protective paralysis"—a nervous system's attempt to keep you safe from overwhelm, boredom, or failure.

    Join us on a soothing journey to understand the deep neurological roots of this paralysis, from the ADHD brain's search for dopamine to the autistic brain's sensitivity to demand and perfectionism. Discover compassionate, practical tools to help you gently "unstick" yourself, not with force, but with kindness. We'll explore strategies like radically shrinking a task, sensory scaffolding, and the quiet magic of a body double.

    Let go of the day's pressures and allow this calm narrative to guide you toward self-understanding and acceptance, concluding with a deep relaxation meditation designed to release the tension of "shoulds" and guide you into a peaceful, restorative sleep.
