ADHD is inherently adaptive. It’s a neurotype built for responsiveness, creativity, and pattern recognition, but it exists in a world designed by and for neurotypical minds. That mismatch makes life with ADHD challenging not because we’re deficient, but because we’re operating with a different kind of cognitive rhythm in a system that doesn’t account for it.
In the workplace, this difference becomes especially visible. We’re constantly modulating between:
Executive functioning and planning
Task switching and adaptability
Sustaining focus amid distraction
Navigating social dynamics (impulsivity, missed cues, environmental sensitivity, time blindness, and unconventional career paths)
Neurotypical functioning tends to fall along a smooth bell curve, consistent and predictable. ADHD cognition, on the other hand, moves more like a wave. It’s dynamic, rhythmic, sometimes extreme, but rich with bursts of insight and innovation.
We’re not less stable, we’re simply wired for oscillation our brilliance lives in our movement.
As a neurospicy myself, on days that we’re really locked in, our performance is off the charts. We can hyper focus for 8 hours of work done in 2 hours. However, some days you’re in a slump and can’t do absolutely nothing.
To me, productivity should feel good, we act on our passions that makes us feel happier, more energized, and more connected that creates better results. The old model is “grind harder, achieve more” but we are replacing it with “feel better, do better.”
Rest and doing less are essential for sustainable productivity. This is also called The Reitoff Principle: having guilt free rest to allow your brain to replenish for creativity, new ideas and energy to rebuild. The most productive workers don’t work longer but they rest more often following the rhythm of about an 1 hour of work and 15-17 minute breaks.
Nuccleus Accumbens (NAcc)- This is the dopaminergic reward system to activate this we go through 3 stages: Expectation, anticipation, confirmation
The nucleus accumbens, the ventral tegmental area, and the dopaminergic reward circuit are what make “happy productivity” possible. Just like when we are listening to good music this activates the same NAcc part of the brain.
The music’s structure causes tension and release. The same architecture that drives all motivation. The brain predicts patterns (expectation), feels arousal in the waiting (anticipation), and then experiences either satisfaction or surprise (confirmation).
That’s the dopamine cycle in real time. It’s why both a catchy song and meaningful work can feel addictive: they follow the same neurological rhythm of seeking, engaging, and reward.
In the NAcc, dopamine isn’t just about pleasure, it’s about salience. The sense that something is worth your attention. We can call this our positive (+1 pip “energy.”)
Play, power, and the kind of people around us are the three energizers, to trigger that reward circuit safely and sustainably. Play activates curiosity and novelty (dopamine spikes). Power creates agency and competence (dopamine stability). People give oxytocin and serotonin balance, which keeps dopamine from burning you out.
The greater the gap between what we expect and what actually happens, the stronger the emotional response we experience.
This is how the brain learns. Each moment of prediction and outcome becomes a feedback loop for adaptation. When you expect a train to arrive on time and it does, your brain registers a small reward. When it’s late, that prediction error triggers emotional and chemical recalibration.
Dopamine is the messenger guiding this entire process. It fuels curiosity, motivation, and reward anticipation. When music moves you, that rush you feel is dopamine being released in the nucleus accumbens which is the brain’s pleasure and learning center. Over time, your reward system becomes shaped by those patterns of tension and release, building a personal emotional template for what “good music” feels like. This is how your brain learns to associate sound with emotion.
Different brain regions play unique roles in this circuitry.
Nucleus Accumbens (NAcc): Generates curiosity, excitement, and reward anticipation.
Amygdala: Processes emotional intensity—especially fear, shame, and anxiety within the limbic system.
Frontal Lobes: Regulate impulse, maintain focus, and moderate emotional expression.
When feedback turns negative, this system can go into overdrive. The frontal lobe works harder to suppress emotional reactions and maintain composure, but that effort consumes energy. The frontal lobe operates like a battery, so it depletes with excessive control and cognitive load.
This is why “trying harder” often makes things worse. Many of us keep pushing against what feels unnatural, overriding intuition with force. That constant effort exhausts the brain’s regulatory systems. The more we suppress emotion, the faster the battery drains, and the harder it becomes to access curiosity or flow, the very states where learning and creativity thrive.
The frontal lobe has kind of like a battery. The basic problem is that if you get a negative feedback you feel bad and suppress emotions. The trick is to break the feed back loop, get back in the body to anchor and create a new behavior.
It can feel really really tiring and frustrating when we are masking. We lose temper and say things we don’t mean to. When things are not going well and we are more fatigued. Our performance gets profoundly worse.
It’s all coming from the same battery pack. If you are picking up energy from positive pips its easier but when you are picking it up from amygdala (shame & anxiety) things are way harder.
Masking also takes aloooot of will power.
The #1 goal to make is to keep the batter full on green!
The #1 thing that drains the better is shame
The correlation of ADHD and depression have a very causative correlation. Shame is a big factor when it comes to ADHD.
Socially isolated, the odd one, you feel ashamed of who you are because people don’t understand you. So you’re going into work with (-1-2 Pips already)
How did it make you feel?
Where do you feel shame in your body?
Shame is an experience of believing that you are inherently unworthy of survival. Safety, love and protection from the group you belong to. It’s not merely an emotion but an overall experience that resides at the identity level.
Feeling Shame is literally rock bottom (you’re on the red.) When you experience shame, it is a physiologically stressful event. It is recorded in the nervous system that stems from childhood trauma.
Shame, fear, and guilt are the trifecta of nervous system regulation.
As we go through life, we already have a lot of negative experiences because we have ADHD. This also carries the similar electrical charge in the body due to deep-rooted evolutionary and tribal conditioning that links to belonging and survival. (It’s not entirely your fault, others is just able to manage it better)
The way you experience feed back will also be challenging because you’re screwing up things again. That you feel that you’re disorganized so you feel negative. Shame also often stems from core wounds and betrayal. This is one of the stickiest patterns that help my clients work on but once it’s dissolves their lives exponentially gets better.
Our brain automatically comes into conclusions. When you were not invited to a birthday party when you were in 2nd grade your brain automatically makes a conclusion of unworthiness. That memory still lives in your brain and fascia. This is one of the reasons why I double down on embodiment and fascia work.
Other Related Patterns and Transmutation:
Shame is closely associated with various destructive behaviors and core wounds, including feelings of unworthiness, the pursuit of perfectionism, self-abandonment, and is a symptom of codependency.
Shame becomes a mask used to cover perceived flaws and vulnerabilities. If you are constantly trying to fix yourself, rather than support yourself, you are likely responding from a shame-based state.
The discharge of shame is released from the nervous system when you set a boundary and put yourself first, especially around codependent behavior.
To mitigate shame, fear, and guilt, the fastest way is through vulnerability, as well as using radical acts of self-love to diffuse shame out of the body. Frequency work aims to recondition these patterns at the subconscious and physical body level.
Perfectionism patterns shows up as excessively high standards and relentless pursuit of flawlessness, as these individuals have internalized the belief that their worth is contingent upon achieving perfection, seeking acceptance, approval, and belonging at any cost.
Our limbic system and amygdala is very close to the hippocampus. There are several connections which is our learning center of the brain (the back office.)
Emotions are always listening and learning. “Omg I love this stuff!” or “He cheated on me, I trusted this person therefore, now I hate all men” That is learning. As we go though life we form several of these “conclusion scripts.”
In order to resolve this. We have to go back through time and reframe what happened. It’s not necessarily “You” but it’s the the untreated belief. This is why we have to separate the “I” from the “Am.”
This is where we have to remember and reframe that we are fundamentally good who are experiencing challenges.
Then we can live a fulfilling life. 🥳 Your shame is in remission.
Neurospicy people pretending to be neurotypical is a (-1000376827364 pips) drains your frontal lobe battery.
Fuck pretending!
We need breaks when we feel overwhelm so we don’t end up crashing out and we can continue to be creative.
Experiences and identities are like light passing through a strained glass through the default mode network. This is like the projector that the eye catches like a lens.
Logic is the underlying lattice of creation. It is the sacred geometry that emotion weaves on. Emotions are pattern. It is energy looping until it finds resolution, like a tone seeking harmony. When the pattern finds coherence, it no longer loops.
Identity is the projection surface. It’s like the stained glass where light passes through. Each shard represents a memory, a culture, a trauma, a victory, a lineage. Light passes through and refracts as personality, yet the light itself never changes. What you call “you” is the coloring of the Infinite through the filters you carry in this lifetime.
The nervous system was designed for coherence within about 150 to 300 other nervous systems. That web of resonance created safety, reflection, and purpose. When that web was shattered by industrialization and technology we lost the biological context that mirrors belonging. The ego that was originally designed to interface between soul and environment became distorted. It began defending identity rather than expressing it.
The default mode network became overactive, generating stories and simulations to maintain a sense of self in a fragmented field. That’s why the modern psyche feels restless. It’s compensating for the loss of shared coherence.
Moving from the Red (negative pips) to more positive pips by unclocking repressed memories to free up some bandwidth. Out of the brain and body’s cache. Old memories needs to be observed from a neutral state.
When we repress emotions, this is a is a defense mechanism that requires more cognitive energy! It is the most taxing garbage compactor of your mind. We don’t like remembering it because we don’t process them. We have to cognitively and emotionally process it. Play with the memories, reshape it and ask what would’ve been helpful and what you could have done differently?
Yes, they will be painful because that is how we have evolved all throughout human history. The “master architect” aspect of consciousness doesn’t erase or override the old patterns, it redesigns the template that the mind and body use to process experience.
You can picture it as an upgrade in coordination between levels. The higher mind what traditions call Buddhi, or clear intelligence starts to supply new organizing principles. Those principles filter down through emotion and sensation until the body learns a new rhythm of response.
At first, the change shows up as insight or intuition: you suddenly see a pattern that used to be invisible. Then, as you keep embodying that insight, the nervous system begins to reorganize around it. Muscles relax, breath deepens, perception widens. The somatic field becomes a living record of the new template.
In that sense, “reprogramming” is really the re-harmonizing of communication between the subtle and the dense. The higher mind doesn’t dictate; it tunes. It teaches the body to trust openness rather than tension, coherence rather than defense.
The same part of the brain that does repression is also the part that is assigned with maintenance and task switching. It’s like the Janitor of our Mind that never took the trash out.
Working through shame is one of the fastest way to free up some emotional burden.
If someone on your team have ADHD and forgets something there are consequences. The cost is already there and now the mangers will have to deal with the consequences.
Neurotypical don’t have any idea what that means or what it’s like to live inside a neurodivergent brain. (For context, its like having fire works all the time) People get frustrated with you when you can’t deliver.
I still struggle with being on the spectrum but I’ve learned ways to work with my brain. I’m not linear but I modulate and rhythmic in how I do work.
Tell people the struggles you face
The difficulties you face
The advantages you have
Just lay it on thick with them to set guardrails so they will have a frame of referrence on how to respond to you.
Script:
“Hi, I’m Celinne I have a diagnosis of AuDhd, I would like to schedule a 30min talk to with you to discuss about it. I want to go over some challenges I have and somethings that help me over come it.
These are the things that really help me excel…
The reason why I want to have this meeting is that I don’t want to drop the ball and I want to excel. I may need help in doing so. ”
Ask yourself:
What is my optimal work flow?
Do you need frequent break?
Environmental stimuli- If your environment is designed in a neurotypical way maybe you can wear headphones or mute notifications. What are some distracting things around you and how can you reduce that? Manage overwhelm and be aware of your brain battery. Keep replenishing so that we avoid crash out.
When I was in healthcare it was overstimulation for 8-12 hours straight. During that time I was working as chronic care manager working in Internal Medicine. I would come home crying and crashing out just so I can do it again the next day. There were several inflow of difficult things and sounds that fried my nervous system. I’ve had times where I would be crashing outside or crying in the bathroom.
We alleviated it by getting another scribe and nurses, we started at 10am and finished at 3pm. We still saw more patients and able to do more efficient work, we were all prepared going in, finishing all the admin tasks and we can be really present with patients. More revenue for the business.
I had to actively look for solutions.
Explain your features and help them understand what would help you.
Eventually I left healthcare and went full time on my business. Leaving 9-5 also requires a tremendous self belief and nervous system regulation but it’s definitely possible. I’m testament to that! If I can do it, you can do it!
In the hospital, we would start fresh with a blank piece of paper everyday and this is how we structure it:
We list all the task on the left and then do a big switch. One of our super power is being able to hemi-sync. We can access to parts of the brain simultaneously where we can hyperfocus on one thing and work on other things. We are masters at multi-tasking when we are in flow.
You are very creative and I believe in you unconditionally! It just requires alot of trial and error. Look at it as a challenge and not a burden. When you are learning heavy topics, its also helpful to engage tactile things like puzzle, fidget toys, knitting, walking while meeting to move the energy around.
Our internal clock doesn’t work the same way as a neurotypical. We are non-local awareness who is having a time bound experience. This is a time distortion we often feel when we are disconnected from the present moment (Zero Point.) This is is our inability to remain embodied in the “Now.” When time distortion occurs, we are operating outside of linear time.
Being ahead of time causes anxiety
Being behind time (in the past) makes us think we are behind in life, believing we are running out of time, and paralyzing freeze states
This part is important….
The speed at which you process or interpret experiences influences the perception of time. The quicker you process your patterns, the more seamlessly time flows, fostering an illusion of time in a slower state of entropy. Conversely, the faster you oscillate at a frequency level, the slower you move through time, which is key to holding the present moment.
Individuals may use magical thinking and delusional thinking as a disassociation pattern to escape the eternal present now by projecting consciousness into a reality that feels safer to the nervous system.
Because we literally do not know how long it will take. We can’t just bang things out because our ability to estimate how long a task will take is impaired. The most important thing is to measure time. Use Time blocking in your calendar, or as Pomodoro. Mastering time is achieved not by controlling external measurement, but by fundamentally shifting your relationship with perception and presence or the Architecture of Reality.
Time distortion often results from continuously looping patterns. You break these feedback loops by identifying the patterns you are running and taking responsibility for them.
Having ADHD means we’re natural problem solvers. Our minds are constantly seeking patterns, meaning, and evolution, which often draws us toward spirituality, introspection, and personal growth. We’re built to adapt, to rise from challenge, and to find creative ways through life. Our sensitivity makes us deeply open to inspiration seven days a week when optimized and that same openness allows us to experience joy and play with an intensity many people lose touch with.
The most important foundations are regulating your sleep and releasing shame. These two pillars stabilize everything else.
Support your body by keeping your blood sugar balanced. Aim for high-fiber meals, plenty of protein, and fewer insulin spikes from processed sugar. When your body feels safe, your mind can focus, create, and flow freely.
We’re retraining the neurons to remember what safe effort feels like. To pour energy into things that hold no stakes, where failure doesn’t exist. To move for the sake of movement, act for the sake of aliveness. When you focus on the doing rather than the result, you begin to live as if life itself is the reward.
We also use:
Spatial Referencing: To locate yourself in the zero point, you use spatial referencing. This involves cognitively identifying objects at six points around you (front, back, left, right, above, and below) and approximating the distance between those objects and a specific body part. This exercise helps your spirit find you in time and allows you to locate yourself precisely in your own zero point matrix. (You can get the guided meditation here)
Coherence: Mastery requires matching your conscious awareness with your physical body at the zero point. When coherence is achieved, your consciousness can ping from a higher, more expanded resonance.
Being able to mastering yourself is not relying on someone else to tell you what to do. Eventually you want to become a creator such as starting a business or working for smaller groups. As you cultivate a high level of precision and presence, you can move into advanced forms of time mastery such as:
Manipulating Polarity/Speed: The fastest way to hold the present moment is by oscillating so quickly that your energy “obliterates into light”. This capacity expansion allows you to hold high speeds of awareness with clarity and precision
Expanding Awareness (Shifting Timelines): Instead of thinking you “jump” timelines, you merge or expand your awareness into other possibilities. The likelihood (probability factor) of being able to maintain a specific timeline (such as the one where you are your highest expression) is predicated on your level of resonance and self-belief.
This is when you really start bending time or what’s called time dilation. (Again time is relative, it’s already proven- Thanks Einstein!) Your experience of Time is warped based on stress, focus and hormones.
Sometimes starting ADHD medications can accelerate the burn out process also. Burn out comes from misalignment of your work. When you work really hard and not getting the reward (wasted effort)
When your system is in burnout, it’s not just that you’re tired, it’s that your nervous system has collapsed into self-preservation. Empathy requires spaciousness, attunement, and emotional availability, but burnout traps you in survival mode. Your body starts conserving energy like a power grid during an overload. It narrows focus to the bare minimum needed to function. So it’s not that your heart stops caring, it’s that your capacity to feel is temporarily offline.
You’ll notice this as emotional numbness, irritability, or a kind of apathy that feels foreign to who you know yourself to be. The mind might start to judge it, whispering, “Why don’t I care like I used to?” But that judgment only deepens the exhaustion. What’s really happening is your system saying, “I can’t extend energy outward right now, I need all of it to stabilize internally.”
Empathy returns as safety returns. As you rest, recalibrate, and slowly refill, you’ll find that your sensitivity starts to reawaken on its own. It’s not something to force, it’s something to recover.
4-10am is really good for cognitive work. This is usually when I would meditate, journal, do some writing or read a book. The 4–5am range is often called the Brahma Muhurta in yogic tradition, meaning “the creator’s hour.” It’s the time when the veil between the subconscious and conscious mind is thinnest, when the world is quiet, and your brain’s frequency sits in that liminal zone between theta and alpha. You’re awake enough to focus, but still open enough to receive.
Cognitively, it’s powerful because cortisol begins to rise just before dawn, giving you a natural alertness without the noise or stimulation of the day. Spiritually, it’s powerful because your energy field hasn’t yet been entangled with external inputs. You’re clear, receptive, undisturbed.
If you’re already using that window for meditation, journaling, or writing, you’re working with your natural rhythm. That’s sacred creative time, the hour when insight meets stillness. Reading something nourishing also works beautifully then because your mind absorbs ideas more deeply.
If you want to refine that window, you could alternate between stillness and creation. For example, spend 15 minutes in silence or slow breath work first, then channel what arises into writing. That way, you’re not just using the mind, you’re listening through it.
Women’s energy levels differ from men’s primarily due to hormonal fluctuations and differences in energy metabolism and nutritional needs.
Men’s Cycles: Men’s hormone levels, particularly testosterone, follow a shorter daily cycle (diurnal rhythm), typically peaking in the morning and declining throughout the day. Their day-to-day hormone levels are more stable than women’s.
Exercising induces discomfort which turns into a positive reinforcement that you don’t have to run away from it. Making the intolerable to tolerable.
Here is the schedule that I recommend:
(high fat, high protein and fiber)
Breakfast: 8:00 AM (eggs, avocado toast, Matcha or Everyday Dose Coffee)
Snack: 9:00 AM (fruit + peanut butter) Acai drink or Pomegranate Drink for anti-oxidants
Lunch: 11:00 AM – noon
Snack: Between 2:00 – 3:00 PM (dark chocolate almonds)
Dinner: 5:00 – 6:00 PM (lower carbs so you don’t induce a spike or you can go for an evening walk)
Snack: An hour before bed (apple, banana or Nello drink)
Specific signs of mental illness: When you wake up with immediate negative thoughts in the morning?
The more autonomous you are, the more you become like your True Self. It is self directed action. You pick something you want to do and go ahead and do it. Anchor it to an identity. The goal of mastering time is ultimate sovereignty and freedom.
The best way to calm the nervous system is to rehabituate it. To teach it safety through gentle repetition.
We stay in the room. We remain present. We let the body learn that nothing bad happens when we stay. Over time, as we engage with life a little more each day, the system begins to trust again. You don’t force calm, you build it through familiarity. Just like rehabilitating a feral animal, you create countless small, neutral moments of safety until the body stops expecting threat. Eventually, the nervous system stops bracing and begins to rest. Regulate the nervous system through long exhalations. (breath in 4- Exhale 8) Walking or EFT tapping.
Cognitive reframe- Approach it in a way that it does not trigger fear.
“I’m gonna try to see if its a good fit”
“I’m gonna try something new to discover maybe I like it”
Look at it in a more positive light.
On our next post, I will dive deeper into how to custom build your reality. Why we want to be innovators and creators instead of following the status quo.

The default mode network became overactive, generating stories and simulations to maintain a sense of self in a fragmented field. That’s why the modern psyche feels restless. It’s compensating for the loss of shared coherence.
Moving from the Red (negative pips) to more positive pips by unclocking repressed memories to free up some bandwidth. Out of the brain and body’s cache. Old memories needs to be observed from a neutral state.
When we repress emotions, this is a is a defense mechanism that requires more cognitive energy! It is the most taxing garbage compactor of your mind. We don’t like remembering it because we don’t process them. We have to cognitively and emotionally process it. Play with the memories, reshape it and ask what would’ve been helpful and what you could have done differently?
Yes, they will be painful because that is how we have evolved all throughout human history. The “master architect” aspect of consciousness doesn’t erase or override the old patterns, it redesigns the template that the mind and body use to process experience.
You can picture it as an upgrade in coordination between levels. The higher mind what traditions call Buddhi, or clear intelligence starts to supply new organizing principles. Those principles filter down through emotion and sensation until the body learns a new rhythm of response.
At first, the change shows up as insight or intuition: you suddenly see a pattern that used to be invisible. Then, as you keep embodying that insight, the nervous system begins to reorganize around it. Muscles relax, breath deepens, perception widens. The somatic field becomes a living record of the new template.
In that sense, “reprogramming” is really the re-harmonizing of communication between the subtle and the dense. The higher mind doesn’t dictate; it tunes. It teaches the body to trust openness rather than tension, coherence rather than defense.
The same part of the brain that does repression is also the part that is assigned with maintenance and task switching. It’s like the Janitor of our Mind that never took the trash out.
Working through shame is one of the fastest way to free up some emotional burden.
If someone on your team have ADHD and forgets something there are consequences. The cost is already there and now the mangers will have to deal with the consequences.
Neurotypical don’t have any idea what that means or what it’s like to live inside a neurodivergent brain. (For context, its like having fire works all the time) People get frustrated with you when you can’t deliver.
I still struggle with being on the spectrum but I’ve learned ways to work with my brain. I’m not linear but I modulate and rhythmic in how I do work.
Tell people the struggles you face
The difficulties you face
The advantages you have
Just lay it on thick with them to set guardrails so they will have a frame of referrence on how to respond to you.
Script:
“Hi, I’m Celinne I have a diagnosis of AuDhd, I would like to schedule a 30min talk to with you to discuss about it. I want to go over some challenges I have and somethings that help me over come it.
These are the things that really help me excel…
The reason why I want to have this meeting is that I don’t want to drop the ball and I want to excel. I may need help in doing so. ”
Ask yourself:
What is my optimal work flow?
Do you need frequent break?
Environmental stimuli- If your environment is designed in a neurotypical way maybe you can wear headphones or mute notifications. What are some distracting things around you and how can you reduce that? Manage overwhelm and be aware of your brain battery. Keep replenishing so that we avoid crash out.
When I was in healthcare it was overstimulation for 8-12 hours straight. During that time I was working as chronic care manager working in Internal Medicine. I would come home crying and crashing out just so I can do it again the next day. There were several inflow of difficult things and sounds that fried my nervous system. I’ve had times where I would be crashing outside or crying in the bathroom.
We alleviated it by getting another scribe and nurses, we started at 10am and finished at 3pm. We still saw more patients and able to do more efficient work, we were all prepared going in, finishing all the admin tasks and we can be really present with patients. More revenue for the business.
I had to actively look for solutions.
Explain your features and help them understand what would help you.
Eventually I left healthcare and went full time on my business. Leaving 9-5 also requires a tremendous self belief and nervous system regulation but it’s definitely possible. I’m testament to that! If I can do it, you can do it!
In the hospital, we would start fresh with a blank piece of paper everyday and this is how we structure it:
We list all the task on the left and then do a big switch. One of our super power is being able to hemi-sync. We can access to parts of the brain simultaneously where we can hyperfocus on one thing and work on other things. We are masters at multi-tasking when we are in flow.
You are very creative and I believe in you unconditionally! It just requires alot of trial and error. Look at it as a challenge and not a burden. When you are learning heavy topics, its also helpful to engage tactile things like puzzle, fidget toys, knitting, walking while meeting to move the energy around.
Our internal clock doesn’t work the same way as a neurotypical. We are non-local awareness who is having a time bound experience. This is a time distortion we often feel when we are disconnected from the present moment (Zero Point.) This is is our inability to remain embodied in the “Now.” When time distortion occurs, we are operating outside of linear time.
Being ahead of time causes anxiety
Being behind time (in the past) makes us think we are behind in life, believing we are running out of time, and paralyzing freeze states
This part is important….
The speed at which you process or interpret experiences influences the perception of time. The quicker you process your patterns, the more seamlessly time flows, fostering an illusion of time in a slower state of entropy. Conversely, the faster you oscillate at a frequency level, the slower you move through time, which is key to holding the present moment.
Individuals may use magical thinking and delusional thinking as a disassociation pattern to escape the eternal present now by projecting consciousness into a reality that feels safer to the nervous system.
Because we literally do not know how long it will take. We can’t just bang things out because our ability to estimate how long a task will take is impaired. The most important thing is to measure time. Use Time blocking in your calendar, or as Pomodoro. Mastering time is achieved not by controlling external measurement, but by fundamentally shifting your relationship with perception and presence or the Architecture of Reality.
Time distortion often results from continuously looping patterns. You break these feedback loops by identifying the patterns you are running and taking responsibility for them.
Having ADHD means we’re natural problem solvers. Our minds are constantly seeking patterns, meaning, and evolution, which often draws us toward spirituality, introspection, and personal growth. We’re built to adapt, to rise from challenge, and to find creative ways through life. Our sensitivity makes us deeply open to inspiration seven days a week when optimized and that same openness allows us to experience joy and play with an intensity many people lose touch with.
The most important foundations are regulating your sleep and releasing shame. These two pillars stabilize everything else.
Support your body by keeping your blood sugar balanced. Aim for high-fiber meals, plenty of protein, and fewer insulin spikes from processed sugar. When your body feels safe, your mind can focus, create, and flow freely.
We’re retraining the neurons to remember what safe effort feels like. To pour energy into things that hold no stakes, where failure doesn’t exist. To move for the sake of movement, act for the sake of aliveness. When you focus on the doing rather than the result, you begin to live as if life itself is the reward.
We also use:
Spatial Referencing: To locate yourself in the zero point, you use spatial referencing. This involves cognitively identifying objects at six points around you (front, back, left, right, above, and below) and approximating the distance between those objects and a specific body part. This exercise helps your spirit find you in time and allows you to locate yourself precisely in your own zero point matrix. (You can get the guided meditation here)
Coherence: Mastery requires matching your conscious awareness with your physical body at the zero point. When coherence is achieved, your consciousness can ping from a higher, more expanded resonance.
Being able to mastering yourself is not relying on someone else to tell you what to do. Eventually you want to become a creator such as starting a business or working for smaller groups. As you cultivate a high level of precision and presence, you can move into advanced forms of time mastery such as:
Manipulating Polarity/Speed: The fastest way to hold the present moment is by oscillating so quickly that your energy “obliterates into light”. This capacity expansion allows you to hold high speeds of awareness with clarity and precision
Expanding Awareness (Shifting Timelines): Instead of thinking you “jump” timelines, you merge or expand your awareness into other possibilities. The likelihood (probability factor) of being able to maintain a specific timeline (such as the one where you are your highest expression) is predicated on your level of resonance and self-belief.
This is when you really start bending time or what’s called time dilation. (Again time is relative, it’s already proven- Thanks Einstein!) Your experience of Time is warped based on stress, focus and hormones.
Sometimes starting ADHD medications can accelerate the burn out process also. Burn out comes from misalignment of your work. When you work really hard and not getting the reward (wasted effort)
When your system is in burnout, it’s not just that you’re tired, it’s that your nervous system has collapsed into self-preservation. Empathy requires spaciousness, attunement, and emotional availability, but burnout traps you in survival mode. Your body starts conserving energy like a power grid during an overload. It narrows focus to the bare minimum needed to function. So it’s not that your heart stops caring, it’s that your capacity to feel is temporarily offline.
You’ll notice this as emotional numbness, irritability, or a kind of apathy that feels foreign to who you know yourself to be. The mind might start to judge it, whispering, “Why don’t I care like I used to?” But that judgment only deepens the exhaustion. What’s really happening is your system saying, “I can’t extend energy outward right now, I need all of it to stabilize internally.”
Empathy returns as safety returns. As you rest, recalibrate, and slowly refill, you’ll find that your sensitivity starts to reawaken on its own. It’s not something to force, it’s something to recover.
4-10am is really good for cognitive work. This is usually when I would meditate, journal, do some writing or read a book. The 4–5am range is often called the Brahma Muhurta in yogic tradition, meaning “the creator’s hour.” It’s the time when the veil between the subconscious and conscious mind is thinnest, when the world is quiet, and your brain’s frequency sits in that liminal zone between theta and alpha. You’re awake enough to focus, but still open enough to receive.
Cognitively, it’s powerful because cortisol begins to rise just before dawn, giving you a natural alertness without the noise or stimulation of the day. Spiritually, it’s powerful because your energy field hasn’t yet been entangled with external inputs. You’re clear, receptive, undisturbed.
If you’re already using that window for meditation, journaling, or writing, you’re working with your natural rhythm. That’s sacred creative time, the hour when insight meets stillness. Reading something nourishing also works beautifully then because your mind absorbs ideas more deeply.
If you want to refine that window, you could alternate between stillness and creation. For example, spend 15 minutes in silence or slow breath work first, then channel what arises into writing. That way, you’re not just using the mind, you’re listening through it.
Women’s energy levels differ from men’s primarily due to hormonal fluctuations and differences in energy metabolism and nutritional needs.
Men’s Cycles: Men’s hormone levels, particularly testosterone, follow a shorter daily cycle (diurnal rhythm), typically peaking in the morning and declining throughout the day. Their day-to-day hormone levels are more stable than women’s.
Exercising induces discomfort which turns into a positive reinforcement that you don’t have to run away from it. Making the intolerable to tolerable.
Here is the schedule that I recommend:
(high fat, high protein and fiber)
Breakfast: 8:00 AM (eggs, avocado toast, Matcha or Everyday Dose Coffee)
Snack: 9:00 AM (fruit + peanut butter) Acai drink or Pomegranate Drink for anti-oxidants
Lunch: 11:00 AM – noon
Snack: Between 2:00 – 3:00 PM (dark chocolate almonds)
Dinner: 5:00 – 6:00 PM (lower carbs so you don’t induce a spike or you can go for an evening walk)
Snack: An hour before bed (apple, banana or Nello drink)
Specific signs of mental illness: When you wake up with immediate negative thoughts in the morning?
The more autonomous you are, the more you become like your True Self. It is self directed action. You pick something you want to do and go ahead and do it. Anchor it to an identity. The goal of mastering time is ultimate sovereignty and freedom.
The best way to calm the nervous system is to rehabituate it. To teach it safety through gentle repetition.
We stay in the room. We remain present. We let the body learn that nothing bad happens when we stay. Over time, as we engage with life a little more each day, the system begins to trust again. You don’t force calm, you build it through familiarity. Just like rehabilitating a feral animal, you create countless small, neutral moments of safety until the body stops expecting threat. Eventually, the nervous system stops bracing and begins to rest. Regulate the nervous system through long exhalations. (breath in 4- Exhale 8) Walking or EFT tapping.
Cognitive reframe- Approach it in a way that it does not trigger fear.
“I’m gonna try to see if its a good fit”
“I’m gonna try something new to discover maybe I like it”
Look at it in a more positive light.
On our next post, I will dive deeper into how to custom build your reality. Why we want to be innovators and creators instead of following the status quo.
