Built differently. For different minds.
5-minute sessions that work
No 20-minute sitting. Raki's ADHD sessions are 5–15 minutes with tight structure. Enough to shift your state without requiring attention you don't have.
Focus soundscapes
Brown noise, binaural beats, pink noise, café ambience — proven to help ADHD brains tune out distraction and get into flow state.
Structured anchors
Every session gives your attention something concrete to hold: breath counts, body sensations, or sound. No "just observe your thoughts." That instruction doesn't work for ADHD.
AI that adapts to you
Raki learns your attention patterns. If 10-minute sessions work better than 5-minute ones for you, it adjusts. If morning sessions land better than evening, it learns.
Pre-work breathing resets
Box breathing before a deep work block. A 2-minute reset between tasks. Short breathing exercises that transition your nervous system from scattered to focused.
Progress that makes sense
Streaks, insights, and weekly summaries that show your actual patterns — without guilt-tripping you when your ADHD wins a day.
ADHD & Meditation FAQ
Can meditation actually help ADHD?+
Yes — with caveats. Multiple studies show mindfulness training improves attention regulation, emotional dysregulation, and working memory in adults with ADHD. The research is strongest for short, structured practices rather than long open-awareness sessions. Raki's sessions are designed around exactly this: 5–15 minute structured practices with clear anchors.
How long should someone with ADHD meditate?+
Research suggests 5–15 minutes of structured practice is more effective for ADHD than longer open-awareness sessions. The key is structure — anchored breathing or body scan rather than "observe your thoughts." Raki's ADHD sessions are 5–15 minutes by design, with tight structure and audio anchors that give your attention something to hold.
What focus sounds are best for ADHD?+
Brown noise is widely reported as the most effective background sound for ADHD focus — it masks environmental noise without being stimulating. Binaural beats in the beta range (14–30 Hz) have some research support. Pink noise is a middle ground. Raki includes all three plus café ambience (which some ADHD adults find optimal).
Is Raki better than Calm or Headspace for ADHD?+
For ADHD specifically, yes. Calm and Headspace are built for neurotypical sitting-still meditation and do not specifically address ADHD. Raki was designed with restless minds in mind: shorter sessions, tighter structure, AI-adapted recommendations, and an absence of the "just observe your thoughts" instruction that most ADHD adults find impossible.
