Depends why you are yawning. Tiredness? More quality sleep. Anxiety and or not breathing enough? Maybe deep breathing techniques.. stimming - not sure. For me I use to do it a lot too and I think because it calmed me down so deep breathing techs worked for
me pretty well

I don’t have any specific videos I have saved down but googling ‘deep breathing techniques’ should get you started. I also like to mediate- yoga nidra body scans! Good luck!

Sleep. Also don’t tell yourself not to yawn. The suggestive power of yawning is strong.

Its interesting to me that people are saying sleep because I get plenty of sleep every night and I am always yawning during meetings. I'm not tired though thats the thing and yet I can't stop myself from yawning.

Hello All - I struggle with time management. I take medication but I have no idea whether a task will take 40 mins or 4 hours. Because of this, I over commit and under deliver. Also, having been on the receiving end of criticism, over time I have developed a perfectionist streak. I won't turn it in if it is good enough. How do you break out of this habit?

Any resources to help the brain structure tasks and make better estimates? Much appreciated, thanks!

I have not been diagnosed with ADHD. I definitely fit some of the characteristics that go unnoticed in females. The good news is if i do have ADHD, it makes me quite good at my job as I’m very flexible and can provide positive energy to my patients. Anyway, my boss has told me I have ADHD multiple times. It seems rude when she says it, and she follows it up with “I say that because I love you” which i feel is so unprofessional all around. Anyone have guidance on how to handle this?
