Hypnotherapist Paul McKenna has openly discussed his experiences with ADHD and dyslexia, emphasizing that both conditions are real and impactful. He views ADHD not as a disorder but as an adaptation, noting that it enhances his ability to think quickly and manage multiple tasks simultaneously in his therapeutic work. McKenna also highlighted the challenges of dyslexia, sharing personal experiences of misreading words. He believes that in today’s digital age, individuals must adapt to increased stimuli, which may contribute to the rise in ADHD diagnoses. McKenna uses meditation to manage his ADHD symptoms and is currently promoting his “Power Manifesting” tour, aiming to help individuals achieve their goals through strategic thinking and visualization.
