🤯 I’ll chew on this for a while but I think this is going to revolutionize our understanding on ADHD!

Woman can’t just take a walk without their phone on them like men can though

I can literally sit here for hours just thinking without being on my phone… theres no difference lol

Well said!

Thank you

Ok I’ll just get of my phone and on the same subject I’ll grow 6 feet taller

That's an amazing ring!

How do I phrase things as a question in a way that the question itself isn't perceived as 'confrontational'?

For the Sunday newspaper do you just use it that day or do you just keep it around for several days so that you can enjoy reading it for several days without getting on your phone?

This was. Well done! As I home school mom of teenagers due to being behind academically, Due to these issues that even Mom has, its harder than when I worked. I cant leave this job. I have to keep the daily shedule of all of us and have us check each task in Order to follow through until Bedtime. All of this discipline has been so rewarding to see , Especially when others not eating well or working out are looking on. One of the most rewarding things Was handing My kids the bible Allowing them meditation time which brought such peace to our crazy scedules. For me it was thirty years ago when a doctor gave me medication. Didn't work out. I returned it to him and picked up the bible. Yes the Lord balanced me out, He helped me of many Unhealthy choices And then led me to a great schedule like You're doing. I'm gonna show this to the kids and let them be encouraged , Other people have the same struggles, Thanks for being vulnerable with ur beautiful video, Thank you dearly❤

I have ADHD and autism makes for a difficult work life for sure

this is why I make 2 grocery lists the first is based on my house, cuz i walk the house to make the list the second list is based on stores. 1 column for walmart, the second column for whole foods, and a 3rd section for whatever 3rd store may have other odds and ends, say seafood market or whatnot the second list is optimized for how i do my grocery run. personal hygiene, then pharmacy, then cleaning products, dairy, sodas, rear grocery store items working my way forward until i get to front grocery items. essentially i enter from the right, go to the back left and work my way forward, and make a note on what items walmart is missing and buy that from my local grocery store. namely Mccormick Grill mates, my local store has ALL OF THEM. but walmart only has a few maybe 3 or 4 flavours.

Nice idea! I usually just make the list i order of where the items typically is, like milk and cheese together :)

Unless you ask why, apparently that's confrontational? I'm sorry I'm just always confused

I have this ring in silver.. it is a nice ring.

Thanks

awesome Ring

Gasp/ genius

I thought i was the only person who had this specific problem 😂

That’s a cool ring man

Silicone wedding band. I spend allll day flipping it inside out.

I got one! I love it!!

Wow Adam this is so helpful I have been implementing some similar things in my life. I would like to add that sleeping and waking at roughly the same time each day (hard bc regular work-day hours are too early for most of the population and we end up sleeping too late on the weekend), eating organic with the "dirty dozen" and close to a plant-based diet and at regular intervals, getting enough light/vitamin D to regulate our circadian rhythm and limiting stress are all crucial for me to battle the lack of concentration and inattention that comes from trauma and trauma recovery. The studies you showed of cognitive impairment mimic my own experience of using my phone, but may i add one thing: it is not just "screen time" but also the quality of screen time. I can no longer pretend that it is not negatively affecting my brain to read articles online with ads flashing in and out of my vision. Also, shortening my commute time was essential in reducing stress (in the forms of noise, alertness to danger in the proximity, and the flashing ads in the subway as well). Thank you for mentioning exercise as an important part of mental hygeine. I look forward to keeping on top of your channel as it is informative, gentle and practical. I will add that de-cluttering has been essential for me, as well as having almost bare walls in my home and minimal furnishings so that i have more non-thinking programmed into my day by virtue of a space that is "quiet on the eyes." Have you looked into blue light? Also, i think you might have mentioned this, but spending time in nature and with an animal can support heathy endorphins and have a calming effect. I like how you made clear that there is no one perfect solution, but putting some good ideas together in a routine can help some of us tread water and keep our jobs while we continue to make incremental change. Great video!

I purchaed 3. 1 for the wife, sister in law and mother. All 3 glow just like that. Its a pleasure to view.

As I said before, thank you for posting this. I look forward to your viewpoint on accommodations. I find it hard to explain to others why true accommodations are needed.

I'm gonna propagate it anyways, lol. It's not a crime if the cops don't know. I wonder if the genetics would carry on if I cross pollinated it.

I made a video on these too! Yours is much better!! We had better luck when put under artificial light, but we're in the PNW. You got any grow tips?

Great video.

Thank you for making these videos. I really like your calm tone of voice and way of explaining things. Very inspiring. Even though i'm a single mom, and my life situation is a lot different from yours, your advice and your examples of what you do are still super helpful, and inspired me to do some things differently myself. I don't have the option to reschedule stuff, and time off is rarely time off when you have kids, as there is an endless list of stuff that needs to get done. But here are my thoughts, maybe they will inspire someone else too. -On bad days, dinner is one of my toughest hurdles to get through. So making double portions of freezer-friendly dinners will be a priority for the next while, so i have something that is easy to get ready. -Maybe a saturday just gets to be a Disney marathon instead of cleaning the whole house and trying to get kids to do as they are told and not get in the way. -Or maybe we go to a park with a playground, so the kids can run around and play while i sit in peace on a blanket in the shade. - Here is something i already try to do: tell people close to you that you are having a bad day might help too. That way, they will know that today is not a good day for that big thing they need to discuss with you. And if you end up snapping at them, they might treat you with kindness and forgiveness because they understand where it came from, rather than take it personal, get angry at you and snap back. This has to be done in a good way of course, and maybe you need to talk with them beforehand on a good day, explain where you are coming from, and make an agreement with them about what you each do in those situations. Listen to their point of view too. It can't just be the "you better not cross me today -approach". I have an agreement with my kids, that they can always ask me how i am doing, or if i am angry, and i will be honest and kind with them. If i am just busy or energetic, they get an explanation, and if i am actually having a bad day, them asking me is often a sign to me that i need to slow down, recenter myself, and give them some reassurance and positive attention. This takes some practice, but a hug and a sincere apology goes a long way.

Thank am going to give it a go hopefully my memory improves too I have become very forgetful!

I heard someone once say that having ADHD is like having bees in our brain. That makes so much sense in this context. So the ADHD is the bees, and all the distractions we engage ourselves in are like feeding the bees sugar. They get all hyped up like toddlers at a birtday party, and start multiplying, so now you have even more bees, who crave even more sugar.

This was great, and it was helpful. Please make more videos. As a tech worker with ADHD, I struggle with this constantly, and I appreciate the perspectives and how others cope with their ADHD in the tech industry. The point about RUclips is so spot on too.

2 weeks in, they are glowing significantly brighter for me - especially new flowers. I can see them glow even in dim light at night without letting my eyes adjust. I think they're absolutely incredible!

I'm wondering how this could work for people who live in a small space where they don't have an extra room that is relatively empty. I'd say that I could find distractions anywhere in our flat. Even if it's just cleaning it 😅. I think I often take this "time out"time when I wake up in the morning and "don't manage" to get up. Then I look in the air and let my thoughts wander around. The only bad thing with it, is that I usually have a reason why I wanted to get up and this often ends up in me beeing late 😅. Even though I'm often angry at myself for staying in bed and everything I know for sure that my system also benefits from it. Would be great to manage to take that "time out time" consciously - also without being in nature... 😊

This is great

Thanks! What I don't understand yet: how do you know that the 30min are over? Do you take some kind of alarm-clock with you to your "empty extra room"? Of do you set an alarm on your phone, leave the phone outside of the room but on a distance where you can hear it?

Thanks, Adam! This was a great reminder to be more intentional with honoring my minds need for rest

Thanks! I'll try to try it (no promises!) :D

So far, disappointing would be the watchword in my case with two petunias. I've planted them outside at this point, so we'll see as the season goes on, and I'm planning on feeding fairly heavily and I've given them full sun (and areas that are unquestionably 8 hours or better a day).

I just got mine delivered today. I purchased it as a gift for my mom. Hopefully once it gets 6 hrs of direct sunlight it will glow better. I have heard that ripe banana peels might help increase the glow but i am not a botanist. Thanks for the video. But can you create an video with an update on how the plant is doing?

Subscriber Number 7 here. Thank you for this video. I still want one to put into TC, for personal use only. I need about 100 of these to dimmly light up my back yard. I remember finding firefox fungi while at boyscout camp, always wanted some of my own.

Excellent job on your video. I tried to video them but couldn’t catch the light on the video. You must have much better equipment than I have.

Thank you for your review. I think I will save my money. Every review I’ve seen shows a couple sparse leaves lighting up. It looks nothing like the advertisements. Thank you for saving me $30 times three or four

Thanks for the review.

What the hell, I am your second subscriber? Cool!
