Child mindfulness therapy reduces ADHD symptoms and executive dysfunctions in girls aged 6 to 12 years. In a quasi-experimental study with 38 girls with ADHD, those who received eight sessions of mindfulness training showed lower ADHD scores and fewer executive function deficits at post-test and at follow-up compared to a control group that received no intervention. The findings suggest that mindfulness training can be a useful approach for managing ADHD-related difficulties in children.
