EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING SKILLS as ritual and contemplative practice

Описание: Yep, you heard it.

Yes, I believe executive functioning as a paradigm that has been foisted on neurodivergent folks is all about functioning well in capitalism, and in that way should be resisted in favor of more creative and liberatory paradigms.

But I ALSO believe that some of the so-called "executive functioning skills" — when approached with slowness and reverence — can be reframed and reclaimed as practices of ritual and contemplation.
