ADHD is a kind of "loss of control over your attention".

Meditation is "getting control over your attention".

So you see the connection there.

I like to think of it as exploring. Or experimenting.

For a beginner at the "focusing" type meditation, to hold your attention upon your "focus object" for 10 seconds straight is amazing. It's surprisingly difficult.
