Inside the Pickle Jar: Connecting with the Spectrum
Good Enough is Great: Mindfulness and Movement for ADHD & Autism, Part 2 with Dr. Freitag
In this episode of Inside the Pickle Jar, I’m back with the brilliant Dr. Corinna Freitag — an executive coach, scientist, and fellow neurodivergent brain — for part two of our conversation on calming the nervous system.
This time, we’re talking about something that often gets overlooked in neurodivergent life: the power of movement and mindfulness.
We get into:
🧠 Why regular physical activity is more than just "nice to have" for autistic and ADHD brains
🌿 How mindfulness can actually work for people who struggle to sit still
✨ Why it’s time to ditch perfectionism and embrace "good enough" mental health habits
💬 Our personal routines (the awkward, imperfect ones!) that keep us grounded, positive, and connected
If you’ve ever felt like self-care advice wasn’t made with your neurodivergent brain in mind — this one’s for you.
