• Do you find yourself interested in moving/dancing/exercising more because it feels good when you do, but don’t end up doing it for one reason or another?

• Movement & exercise do WONDERS for the ADHD brain, but ADHD & Neurodivergent folks often have social/logistical/emotional barriers in the way of moving on a regular basis.

Some examples are:

• working out doesn’t feel exciting or interesting enough, getting bored easily

• too many steps involved (change clothes, find a place, clear stuff out of the way, pick a class or at home video or independent thing, deciding when, getting there)

• decision fatigue - what thing to do? dance around? yoga? lift weights?

• time confusion - trouble with planning a time to do it, or you plan a time but it takes a lot longer than you thought

• perfectionism - “if I can’t do the whole thing, why do it at all”

• parts of you feel exhausted and don’t WANT to move

• losing time to other more shiny things (social media, etc) or to hyperfocus (“let me just finish this one thing…”)

• feeling worried about what other people might think of you (maybe you’re worried you won’t know how to use equipment at the gym, or you sign up to do a dance class online but you feel embarrassed how hard it is to keep up with the steps)

• systems of oppression such as fatphobia, racism, transphobia, sexism (and more) can get in the way of relating to our body and pleasurable feelings

Maybe you relate to all of those, maybe just a few, but either way, you’re not alone!

We want to create an inclusive and welcoming space where we can move through some of these things together, and explore one particularly helpful way to inspire movement amidst a lot of barriers - using imagination, fandom, & pop culture!

In this workshop, Erika and Heather will:

• Help you identify and work with barriers you may have to movement and/or exercise

• Teach you more about why movement and exercise is superfood for ADHD brains

• Demonstrate techniques on how to make movement and fitness more fun

• Using immersive practices, pop culture, fandom

• Connecting to your mind, body, and community 

• Guide you through creating your own creative immersive warm up

• What is a warm up and why is it important?

• How to safely warm up

• Basic physical and emotional components of a warm up

• All while in a no-judgment zone that encourages inclusivity of all bodies

Our hope is that after this workshop, you’ll have a moment where you think “Hm, I should probably get my heart pumping today or stretch, I feel tight and antsy.” In the midst of mounting overwhelm or bad memories that come up around fitness, you remember our workshop and can immediately (or very soon afterwards) use your own warmup to get yourself going and feeling good.

This workshop will take place VIRTUALLY on Zoom. 

Sign Up Here!!

Come do therapist stuff in community!

Personally, I need some accountability to get some of the less-dopamine-friendly tasks in my private practice done, and I know you probably do too. So let’s lean on each other. 

I will host the space via zoom, and provide some structure (all of which is optional!)

The general flow is:

• Brief Guided Movement / Parts Check-in

• Intention Setting

• Work

• (Break)

• Work

• Check in at the end

You can show up for any amount of time that works for you, and do things that you might need extra accountability or encouragement to get done.

If you’ve never done co-working before, some things you might do are:

• Notes

• Letter writing

• Phone calls 

• Money stuff

• Dreaming and brainstorming

• Nervous system care, self-reflection, or other self-tending practices that might be hard to do alone (stretching, journaling, drawing, making lists, laying on the floor for a long time staring at the ceiling)

Feel free to reach out (erika.june.therapy@gmail.com) if you have questions!

And if you’re saying, “Ooo, no questions here, sign me up!” you can do that HERE.

Hope to see your shiny brains there. 

Come do therapist stuff in community!

Personally, I need some accountability to get some of the less-dopamine-friendly and multi-step tasks in my private practice done, and I imagine you do too. So let’s lean on each other. 

I will host the space via zoom, and provide a very general structure, all of which is optional. It’ll be something like:

• Brief guided movement moment

• Intention setting/sharing

• Focus time

• 5-ish minute break

• Focus time

• Check in at the end

You can show up for any amount of time that works for you, and do things that you might need extra accountability or encouragement to get done. Or really, just come and hang out and feel some group energy.

Some examples of things you might do in a co-working session are…

• Notes

• Letter writing

• Phone calls 

• Money stuff

• Dreaming and brainstorming

• Nervous system care, self-reflection, or other self-tending practices that might be hard to do alone (stretching, journaling, drawing, releasing excess energy, making lists, laying on the floor for a long time staring at the ceiling)

Reach out to me at (erika.june.therapy@gmail.com) if you have questions!

Hope to see you there.
