Changeable Podcast

In this episode, Dan and I look at the role of attention in a relationship. We’ll explore what attention and connection have to do with each other, how attention is an open and receptive presence (rather than monitoring, watching, or evaluating), the benefits of attention, and the obstacles to giving and receiving attention and what we can do about them.

This week’s episode is a conversation with Juliet O’Rourke for her brand new podcast, Gifted with ADHD. 
Gifted with ADHD brings together mental health, wellbeing, and a big-picture spiritual understanding of how the mind works, particularly an ADHD mind. 
In our conversation, we go deep into the role of thought and emotion, particularly experiences like boredom, rejection, and restlessness.

The post EP392: Breaking Habits and Ending Self-Doubt: My episode on Gifted with ADHD appeared first on Dr. Amy Johnson.

In this episode we’ll look at where attention naturally wants to go…and where attention might be going in ways that are unwanted. The more we have in our lives and around us that demand attention, the less free attention there is for exploring direct experience.

I will be leading a Silent Retreat in Taos, New Mexico, February 22-27. 
The retreat will provide a supportive space for you to steep in your essential being. You’ll immerse in what’s always here, unchanging, beyond the pull of thoughts, feelings and identities, in the absence of everyday distractions and conditioning.
The retreat is small, and only a few spots remain. You can check out all the details at dramyjohnson.com/newmexico
