Mind Over Matter

How to Calm Spiralling Thoughts with ADHD Brains

'If your ADHD brain has made you believe you’re the problem, let this be your reminder: you’re not. You just need the right support, the right language and a whole lot of self-compassion.'

In this compassionate and empowering toolkit, Emma Llewellyn will guide you through rumination and spiralling thoughts, explaining why they happen and how you can learn to manage your mind every day. Instead of trying to 'fix' your neurodivergent brain or 'recover' from your diagnosis, Mind Over Matter will validate your experience and equip you with simple, practical tools to help your brain feel less overwhelmed.

With easy-to-follow tips, bite-sized information and personal experiences of living with ADHD, this book will help you challenge your overthinking mind, transform your uncontrollable thoughts and turn frustration into self-compassion. Your brain is not broken. It doesn't need fixing. And you can work with it, not against it.
