Food rituals, ADHD, and the science of feeling more held
Food is never just fuel. I wrote this short piece after reading a fascinating article on food rituals and how they shape the way we eat. From using a favourite plate to making a simple snack feel more inviting, small rituals can support ADHD nervous systems through meaning, attention, pleasure and everyday kindness. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

In ADHD, it’s only too easy to see “negative” food-related behaviours as a lack of discipline. Instead, I’d like to reframe them as nervous system responses to stress. Understanding this subtle shift can empower you to radically change your relationship with food and eating.
Join my newsletter community
A thoughtful space where science meets story, and where food, mood, gut-brain health, neurodivergence and everyday nervous system care all belong in the same conversation.
I’ll send you reflections, practical ideas, fun experiments, book updates and honest notes from the human side of research, ADHD, creativity and body-mind health. This is also where I’ll share early news about ADHD Body + Mind resources, events and future community spaces.
