Mind mapping for ADHD and neurodiversity
•Mindflow Team•1 min read
For people with ADHD or neurodiversity, keeping an overview is a challenge. Scientific studies (CHADD, 2025) show that visual aids such as mind maps can relieve working memory by up to 40% and reduce stress.
Why does mind mapping work so well for ADHD?
- Visual overview: 87% of people with ADHD experience more calm by visualizing their thoughts.
- Less pressure on working memory: External structure prevents tasks from being forgotten.
- Structure without rigid rules: Mind maps grow with your thought process.
