Herbal Tools for ADHD

Speaker: Ellen Rowland

Description

Many people with ADHD are curious about natural ways to support their focus, energy and emotional regulation—but aren’t always sure what actually works, or where to start.

Can Plants Support the ADHD Brain? Exploring Natural Approaches to Focus and Regulation brings together practical, evidence-informed strategies using everyday herbs to support ADHD nervous systems. In this session, Medical Herbalist Ellen Rowland shares how plant-based approaches can complement existing support systems—whether you take medication or not.

We’ll explore how simple, accessible herbs—many of which you may already have in your kitchen—can be used intentionally to support calm, clarity and resilience. Grounded in both research and lived experience, this talk is designed to be realistic, supportive and easy to apply in everyday life.

In this session, we’ll cover:

  • How specific herbs can support focus, calm, emotional regulation and sleep
  • Why ADHD nervous systems may respond differently—and how to work with them, not against them
  • Simple, practical ways to incorporate herbal support into daily routines
  • How plant-based approaches can complement medication and other supports
  • What the research says about herbal medicine and ADHD
  • How to build sustainable, personalised strategies that feel manageable and effective

This talk is for neurodivergent individuals looking for accessible, natural ways to support their wellbeing, as well as anyone curious about integrating plant-based approaches into ADHD care in a realistic and informed way.
