How to be You
Ellie Middleton is back with a new, practical book to help you work WITH your neurodivergent brain rather than AGAINST it. In each chapter, she writes about the eight executive functions that neurodivergent people struggle with including working memory, prioritisation and emotional regulation and shares 5 simple tips for readers to try out, including: Creating a launch pad to remember the essentials when you leave the house; drawing a car park of ideas to help visualise your thoughts and manage impulse control; the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 mindfulness technique to prevent spiralling and regulate emotions; and breaking up each day into Four Quadrants to approach every day with more flexibility. Ellie reveals why society tells us that we ‘should’ do things (read: patriarchy, ableism, White supremacy) and shows us how we can all free ourselves of those expectations, feel empowered and, ultimately, be more YOU.
