Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
“Full of tips and strategies collected over years of shared experiences, Fidget to Focus is a gold mine of information and sometimes surprising, sometimes heart-warming stories about how to stay focused and on track, even when tasks are dull, tedious, and boring.”
—Thom Hartmann, author of Attention Deficit Disorder: A Different Perception.
'I love Fidget to Focus. I want to congratulate you on this wonderful and unique contribution to the field. Your book was very informative about how the ADD brain works and current understanding about the disorder, as well as the numerous practical, helpful sensory strategies for self-regulation that you shared.'
—Sandra Rief, Author of How To Reach & Teach Children with ADD/ADHD: Practical Techniques, Strategies, and Interventions
'Fidgeting to stay focused... Imagine that! Sounds counterintuitive, but that is just what Dr. Roland Rotz and Coach Sarah Wright are recommending in their new book, Fidget to Focus. Advocating repetitive sensory-motor activities as a fundamental strategy for improving attention and other cognitive abilities, they present a unique and fun way to turn outer chaos to calm focus.'
—Patricia O. Quinn, MD, Director, National Center for Gender Issues and ADHD, author of a number of books on ADD.
Until now, the only way you could learn about the Fidget to Focus approach to successfully living with and managing Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) was to attend a national conference. The groundbreaking ideas in this book, based on the personal experiences of hundreds of people and recent breakthroughs in neuroscience, will change the way you live with this disorder. Fidget to Focus is a guide to keeping your brain engaged and focused with tools and techniques available to you at any time (workbook included!).

This book taught me that fidgeting is a good thing and procastinating is the norm!

I not only learned new techniques for managing and coping with ADD but I learned much more about the condition itself. All the information was clearly and easily presented. Although I was reading this for a family member diagnosed with ADD, I found many of the ideas helpful to me as well. I would highly recommend this book to everyone.

I read this book very quickly, because the book is short but engaging and make an awful lot of sense if you have ADHD and you have hyperactivity.
Basically, this book gives you examples of how to capitalize on how an ADHD brain works rather than focusing on correcting what doesn't work. It's perfect for creative people such as musicians, painters, etc, but it can work for anybody being hyperactive.
At the end of the book, there is a list of resources and websites, and also an appendix that help you find out which strategies have worked best for you in the past and pair them to the tasks you still can't follow through on.
I've implemented many of these strategies and I can honestly say that this book is changing my life.

This has been one of the easiest and most to the point book I have read on the subject of ADHD so far.
The authors have explained the fundamentals of ADD/ADHD in the most simplest terms and given fidget a whole new meaning!
A wonderful read.
Rated by buyers -
A well-organized book, combining current scientific thinking with helpful suggestions and anecdotes. Plenty of meat in the text, but the time-challenged will find chapter reviews and appendices useful.
