Enhancing Social Cognition in Individuals With ADHD: An Eastern Approach
Abstract
With the increasing prevalence of ADHD in the global front, it is essential to explore different effective methods for providing support and intervention. The difficulties with social cognition are reflected in their limitations in emotional self-regulation, emotion recognition, and empathy. Though several interventions exist for ADHD, many at times, the effectiveness of eastern approaches are overlooked due to the limited awareness about its nature. Research suggests that systematic and regular practice of yoga helps to improve attention, control emotion, and reduce restlessness among them. Several asanas are found to be especially helpful for managing ADHD symptoms including cobra (bhujangasana) pose, cat-cow pose (bitilasana marjaryasana), downward-facing dog (adho mukha shvanasana), tree pose (vrikshasana), mountain pose (tadasana), among many others. The chapter gives a comprehensive summary on the application of yoga techniques on the improvement of social cognition in individuals with ADHD.
