Balance – How Neurodivergent Adults Can Nurture Well-Being Across Work, Life and Self-Care

Work-life balance is often framed as a clear divide between work and home. For many neurodivergent people, life is rarely that simple. This book takes a whole-life approach to balance, grounded in self-understanding, compassion, and lived experience. Through a neuro-trait lens, you'll explore how energy, executive functioning, sensory processing, attention, communication, and stress responses shape everyday experiences across work, home, and personal self-care. Throughout, you are invited to notice what supports you, what drains you, and how different environments interact with your support needs. Through reflection prompts, practical ideas, and community insights, you'll be encouraged to build a personalized strategy toolkit that fits your needs, values, and pace. Blending psychological insight with lived experience, Jessica Dark offers a compassionate guide to creating balance that honours neurodivergence and supports holistic wellbeing. Whether you're autistic, have ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia or another form of neurodivergence, this book is for you.
