Sahaja Meditation and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) 

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (AD/HD) affects about 3 to 7 percent of children and symptoms usually appear between the ages of 3 and 6. The three possible components of AD/HD — inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity — may all manifest in academic, occupational or social settings. Some may only have symptoms of inattentiveness, but no hyperactivity-impulsivity component. (This is often referred to as Attention-Deficit Disorder or ADD.) People with AD/HD may seem "motor-driven," and have trouble sitting quietly. In fact, people who have this disorder are often described as only running — never walking. They tend to be restless and try to do several things at once, usually unsuccessfully. They tend to prefer “quick fixes,” rather than seeking to achieve greater long-term rewards. They may tend to avoid tasks that require sustained mental effort (e.g., complex organization tasks or close concentration) because they experience these tasks as unpleasant and feel as if they're failing. Their work is often messy, careless, and performed without deliberation or thought. Stress only further decreases productivity and increases symptoms. Studies show that Sahaja Meditation, which produces inner calm and razor-sharp focus and clarity, shows great promise as an alternative treatment for people who have AD/HD. Studies have shown that Sahaja Meditation can produce significant improvements in symptoms of AD/HD. Compared to a control group that received no treatment, children who meditated experienced a significant faced significantly reduced attention problems, impulsiveness and hyperactivity. Other study results included improvements in the children’s AD/HD behavior. Children reported better quality of sleep, increased concentration and fewer conflicts in their lives.  

Sahaja Meditation can be a valuable tool for managing childhood AD/HD within the family dynamic.
