    Embracing a more integrated, holistic and spiritual approach to ADHD

    Embracing a more integrated, holistic and spiritual approach to ADHD

    An integrative and more holistic healthcare approach is something you hear me talking about a lot on the Podcast. You've probably heard how passionate I am about helping people with ADHD weave more lifestyle-orientated practices alongside Western healthcare in their daily routine, and I'm delighted to welcome someone who embraces this approach with her patients, Dr Gemma Newman (The Plant Power Doctor), a best-selling author, podcast host, and GP.
    Although Gemma is a medical GP, she's also interested in holistic health, plant-based nutrition, and lifestyle medicine. In her practice, she has come to understand that body, mind, and soul are not separate and that only by addressing the root causes of stress and disconnection can we truly heal from the inside out. She is a founding member and ambassador for Plant-Based Health Professionals UK and a member of the British Society of Lifestyle Medicine.
    Gemma's second book, Get Well, Stay Well: The Six Healing Health Habits Everyone Should Know (Ebury, 2024), combines medicine, psychology, and nutrition. It provides simple, actionable tips and a unique wellness template to help you transform your life.
    On this episode of The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Podcast, Gemma and Kate speak about:
    Gemma's GLOVES framework for holistic and lifestyle wellbeingThe role of functional medicine and ADHDHow to talk to your GP regarding an ADHD diagnosisSelf-compassion as a neurodivergent person Gemma's journey to spiritual practice, holistic and functional healthEmotional Freedom Technique or Tapping and the many benefits for ADHDThe benefits of plant-focused eating Knowing the areas of health that will help YOU the mostHow does our emotional and spiritual wellbeing impact our physical health

ADHD + Alcohol

Thank you for the episode with Kay about alcohol and adhd. I have struggled with what Kay called the “boom bust” my whole life which has included bouts of heavier drinking and sobriety and really struggling to maintain my healthy lifestyle choices.

The Link between Hypermobility, EDS & Neurodivergence

Such a fantastic episode!! I learned so much from this. I struggle with ADHD/BiPolar2/Hypermobility. I shared this episode with 5 medical/health professionals in my life. My doctor, an occupational therapist along with 3 therapists. One of which works with neurodivergent kids and another who’s partner and child are neurodivergent. And the third being a couple’s therapist who also works with family’s consisting of neurodivergence within the community. I have 2 other doctors in my family; I’ll be sharing this with them over the holidazes.

Gen0cide apologist

Unfortunately this woman is a white supremacist Zi0nist and a gen0cide apologist. She genuinely believes that the value of an Israeli life is far greater than that of a P@lestinian. She calls those standing up to end the genocide of P@lestinians anti-semites. She promotes tropes used to justify the violence. There are many other Podcasts about adhd that are run by woman with in-tact consciences. Look elsewhere for your adhd support.
