ADHD is a kind of “loss of control over your attention”.

Meditation is “getting control over your attention”.

So you see the connection there.

    Does progressive muscle relaxation count as meditation?

    If so: yes, but not as a constant part of my daily routine, more like something i start using again during stressful times or if i find myself rummaging through negative thoughts a lot.

      By meditation I mean what the Buddhists and Raja Yogis mean.

      It is the manipulation and cultivation of attention. To gain control over it.
