As a mum with ADHD, I know firsthand the challenges we face—overwhelm, racing thoughts, emotional rollercoasters, and the constant feeling of being “too much” or “not enough.” I’ve spent years searching for tools that could help me feel more grounded and in control of my life, and mindfulness has been a game-changer. This 7-day course is the result of my own journey to find balance, focus, and peace. It’s a safe space where we’ll explore mindfulness practices tailored to the unique ways our brains work. Together, we’ll shift from chaos to calm, from self-doubt to self-compassion, and from surviving to thriving. Course Objectives: - Share the mindfulness tools and techniques that have helped me personally manage ADHD symptoms and feel more in control. - Guide you to create space between your thoughts and actions, helping you reduce overwhelm and improve focus. - Equip you with grounding practices that bring calm during emotional storms. - Teach you how to embrace who you are, not in spite of ADHD, but because of it. - Help you establish a sustainable mindfulness practice that works for your busy, creative mind. What You Can Expect: - Daily Themes: I’ve broken the course into seven manageable chunks, each focusing on areas I’ve found most impactful—like taming the mental chaos, getting better sleep, and learning how to be kind to yourself. - Guided Practices: You’ll try techniques that I use in my daily life, like body scans to release tension, breathing exercises to calm racing thoughts, and mindfulness tricks that work even on the hardest days. - Relatable Insights: I’ll share real stories from my journey, so you know you’re not alone. These experiences will guide and inspire you to embrace your own path. - Practical Tools: I’ll give you simple strategies to integrate mindfulness into your day, even if your schedule feels overwhelming. These tools will be easy, effective, and ADHD-friendly. - A Supportive Approach: This isn’t about perfection. It’s about small, consistent steps that help you reconnect with yourself and your potential. This course is for you if you’ve ever felt like your mind is working against you and you’re ready to discover how mindfulness can work with your ADHD. Let’s take this journey together and unlock a calmer, more focused version of you.

Caroline Bakker is a mindfulness teacher, author, and holistic health coach whose journey into health and wellness has been shaped by her own life experiences. Originally from the Netherlands, Caroline moved to Australia in 2009, where she began her career as a Health and Fitness Trainer and developed a deep passion for integrative medicine and mindfulness. Her path took a transformative turn after becoming a mother at 33 and discovering at age 35 that she had been living with ADHD—a realization that came after years of feeling overwhelmed, battling adrenal fatigue, and struggling with emotional dysregulation. This late diagnosis, combined with her journey through PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder), inspired Caroline to seek alternative, holistic strategies to manage her symptoms, which she now shares with others. Caroline's experiences led her to write a book that explores the challenges of ADHD and PMDD and provides practical, compassionate strategies for navigating life with these conditions. Drawing on her expertise as a meditation teacher and her own personal growth, Caroline offers a unique perspective that blends evidence-based practices with heartfelt insights. Now residing in Dubai, UAE, Caroline continues her work helping women embrace their strengths and live with intention. Her programs and meditations are rooted in her commitment to empowering others to navigate the complexities of ADHD and PMDD with mindfulness, compassion, and resilience. Caroline’s ability to connect deeply with her audience stems from her own challenges and triumphs, making her a trusted guide for those seeking balance and healing.
