When I’m quiet enough to slow the racing thoughts, I can feel the texture of silence.
This work began during the Covid lockdowns and deepened following my ADHD diagnosis in 2025. Understanding that my restlessness and my tendency toward sensory overload are in part shaped by ADHD brought a sense of relief. By the time I was diagnosed, I had already developed ways to navigate the world ... strategies that mostly worked.
I chose not to medicate, feeling that my neurodivergence is an essential part of how I think and create. Instead, I began to make conscious changes to cultivate a greater sense of calm. This work grew from a need to slow down, to reduce noise, and to pay closer attention to detail and to the present moment.
It reflects a deliberate movement toward quiet, both in my life and in my practice.
