suggesting such "mapping" as if it is should be an industry standard sickens me.

be direct and clear without accusing or putting your emotional baggage in the conversation.

there are no shortcuts or maps that can take you out from the communication maze. know how to be adult & communicate and find your way.

As a Person with ADHD:

- first thing i do is drinking big glass of water

- doing Sun Salutation yoga sequence, either 1 time or N times -as long as i am willing to do that day-

- spend first 15 minutes of working hour with coffee and writing a short todo for that day into paper.

I cannot emphasise enough how doing mindful exercises -even 1 minute!- regularly in the morning helps with my ADHD.

But here is my ADHD trap: I do yoga every morning, feel better, since i feel better stop doing them at some point because i don't think i need it. Downward spiral starts and i lost track of my ADHD.

I also have ADHD, one of the best thing i tried is doing a morning yoga (sun salutations) either 1 min, or 5 min (however i feel, same sequence repeating).

I think somewhat starting the day with mindful exercises helps greatly for rest of the day. I do this morning routine daily for a week, feel great. Then stop doing because i feel great, downward spiral starts. and start again.

Well, this should be the main hypothesis of QiGong/TaiChi/Yoga.

The "energy blockages" means the affects of the stress on the body. (tight shoulders, abs etc..) And some mindful streching exercises (like QiGong and Yoga) aims to release this tension on the body (hence the reverse the effect of the stress) and be "healthy"

This conclusion on "Dance" is to narrow i think. What about TaiChi/QiGong? Or martial arts? or yoga?

Instead, maybe, the research might have focused for "exercises that requires high coordination and awareness of body is superior to weightlifting"

Do you, by any chance, deep down, feel like a prisoner longing for freedom? reflecting your internal state in the dog?

yeah but, "kind of" copied, and samalt reinforced that with refering to "her" in this tweet.

samalt is walking in the shadows of ethical/non-ethical line and he seems obviously is proficient in that.

however, even in such cases he does not hesitate to walk in the border of non-ethical is worrisome for the future of the ethics in ai.

Hi, my 2 cents: it does not matter what kinds of yoga or types of therapy at this stage. Find a good therapist, find a yoga/meditation and/or exercise that you can follow regularly. that's it. We like to think about oh CBT is better on my anxiety, but EMDR is better on my Trauma, hey yoga nidra is better but vipassana is more comprehensive etc. these are overthinking, our brain is doing this for a cheap dopamine shots. Start somewhere, do regularly. thats all.
