80 Adult ADHD Coping Strategies: Mini Card Deck

Introducing 80 Adult ADHD Coping Strategies: Printable Mini Card Deck – Your TICKET To Thrive With Adult ADHD. Crafted By George Watts, A Seasoned BWY Teacher With Adult ADHD. These Downloadable Mini Cards Offer A Fun Way To Cope With Adult ADHD

 

Greetings and Namaste!

I’m George Watts (that’s me over there in doodle form), a seasoned BWY Yoga teacher and the creator of the Online Yoga Lesson Planner and the Chakra Chair Yoga Deck. I’ve been teaching yoga since 2010 and have taught hundreds of yoga classes.

I created the 80 cards in the Adult ADHD Coping Strategies Mini Card Deck for myself because I have adult ADHD. I wanted a playful way to experiment with new coping strategies.

The mini-card layout is designed like a ticket, symbolising that each coping strategy is a unique journey for navigating the challenges of adult ADHD. This layout not only adds visual appeal but also makes the learning process more engaging and enjoyable. 

Whether you’re looking for ways to enhance your productivity, improve your organisational skills, or regulate your emotions, my hope is that these tickets transport you to a more fulfilling life with adult ADHD.

 

The Power Of A Prompt For Someone With Adult ADHD

 

Prompts are highly effective for adults with ADHD because they break down complex tasks into manageable actions.

Each prompt card in this deck offers a straightforward, easy-to-apply coping strategy for Adult ADHD. These prompts are gentle reminders to stay on track, encouraging consistency and helping you build positive habits over time.
