The difference between ADHD and human distractibility, and strategies for managing ADHD that can improve your focus, even if you don’t have it. Guest Dr. Mark Bertin, a developmental pediatrician who specializes in ADHD and developmental disorders. In this episode we talk about: • The difference between ADD and ADHD, and the subcategories: hyperactive and inattentive. • Whether ADHD is a new condition brought on by the distractions of a modern world, or one that’s always been around.  • The difference between being human and distractible, and having ADHD. • Strategies for managing ADHD that can be used even if you don’t have ADHD. Dr. Mark Bertin is the author of How Children Thrive, Mindful Parenting for ADHD, Mindfulness and Self-Compassion for Teen ADHD, and The Family ADHD Solution, which integrates mindfulness into pediatric care.
