Does Meditation Actually Help ADHD? What Two Studies Found

Meditation is one of the most common ADHD recommendations—but what does the research actually say?
In this Research Recap, Skye Waterson and William Curb examine two studies on mindfulness and ADHD. The first explores an 8-week mindfulness program for primary school children, while the second compares mindfulness with structured psychoeducation for adults with ADHD.
The children's study found improvements in attention and psychological wellbeing. The adult study found something just as interesting: learning about ADHD in a structured group setting produced many of the same benefits as mindfulness.
The takeaway isn't that meditation doesn't work. It's that there are multiple evidence-based ways to engage with your ADHD—and the best approach is the one you'll actually stick with.
What We Cover:
• What an 8-week mindfulness program changed for 7- to 8-year-old children
