Brief Summary

Mindfulness training is a promising form of training for children with ADHD, as it focuses on attention and has gained empirical support as a complementary or alternative intervention. It involves increasing awareness and nonjudgmental observation of present-moment experiences while reducing automatic responding

Detailed Description

training to sustain focus on present-moment experiences and gently shifting attention back to the meditation object when the mind drifts (Bishop, et al., 2004). Mindfulness meditation is a relatively new approach for reducing stress and emotion regulation difficulties among children. While researching the efficacy of mindfulness training in children is a new domain, existing evidence suggests that it has positive effects on psychological well-being, pain management, emotion dysregulation, negative behaviors, and cognitive/executive functions and attention (Evans et al., 2018; Zhang, Díaz-Román, \& Cortese,2018).

Nurses have an important role in caring for children with ADHD, particularly in the context of mindfulness-based interventions. They can provide education and support to both parents and children regarding the benefits of mindfulness practice and can help implement mindfulness programs in clinical and community settings.
