ADHD is a kind of "loss of control over your attention".

Meditation is "getting control over your attention".

So you see the connection there.

  1. maybe, maybe not. There are differences that aren't so different and there's a lot of smoke around the subject. We'd be better off to talk more specifically, maybe. I'm being specific about the "controlling your attention" thing, for example.

  2. Hmm. Getting offended is basically the national sport of the internet. So you'll pardon me if I take it with a grain of salt. I'm striving for brevity and clarity here. I for one find tiptoeing around the point to avoid offending anybody to be the most offputting style. But all that noise aside, ya, speaking as an AS guy who meditates, it's a really big deal. I'm actually intentionally avoiding getting too handwavey and excited about it here because people tend to find that REALLY offputting.
