The Lotus Bridge Philosophy

Like the lotus flower that blooms even in the most challenging of environments, you CAN overcome the challenges in your life.

Even though your natural personality traits (like ADD and high creativity) make you vulnerable to emotional reactivity, impulsivity, and distractibility, you can succeed.

The Lotus Bridge is an actual bridge that connects China and Macau - two countries that speak different languages, have dramatically different cultures and drive on opposite sides of the road..

The bridge not only connects the two countries, it facilitates people in switching from driving on the right side of the road to driving on the left side. (I love this as a metaphor for left-right brain differences)

My philosophy is that even though your natural "right brain" creativity, or your ADD create challenges for you in a left brain dominant world, you CAN learn to use your gifts to succeed in your own unique way.

That's my mission. To provide Coaching, education and support that empowers you to DESIGN more success into your life!

Are you ready to change your life forever?

Ariane Benefit, ADD, ADHD Coach, Professional Organizer  NJ, NY, PAHelping people live happier, healthier, less stressful lives is my mission in life. My specialties include working with people who have creative personality types or have ADD / ADHD, or anyone who has problems with time management, attending to routine tasks, prioritizing, chronic disorganization and excessive clutter.

Having ADHD (or a creative personality type with right brain preferences that prefers to "keep options open") can turn completing the most mundane of daily tasks into a living nightmare. Boredom with repetitive routines, indecision, high sensitivity and reactivity, distractibility, and frequently changing your mind are hallmark traits of both ADD and High Creativity.

These traits, left unattended, often lead to low self-esteem, depression, stress disorders, addictions, overspending, poor boundaries, chronic fatigue, perfectionism, procrastination, disorganization, chronic overwhelm, excessive clutter, and traumatized attachment to things and information over people (AKA hoarding behavior), just to name a few.

"When you change the way you see things,
things change."


The keys to getting unstuck from these debilitating patterns and regaining your energy for life include:

  • Understanding how ADD, creative personality type, and right brain / left brain integrations affect your ability to act on your intentions, and the way you make decisions, plan, and prioritize
  • Learning to see yourself in a new way - fully accepting the things you cannot change about yourself - your strengths, limits, needs, differences
  • Learning how to work with yourself effectively
  • Developing your ability to plan, prioritize, make decisions, establish personal boundaries, and say no
  • Becoming more mindful
  • Identifying patterns of distraction, impulsivity and paralyzing inner conflict, and improve your ability to manage them
  • Discovering your personal sources of energy and motivation and learning how to harness them
  • Organizing your life and environment using simple, easy to maintain strategies that work with your unique style and personality preferences - and that are easy for you to maintain

"Working with you has changed my whole life and saved my marriage. My husband says it was the best money we ever spent. My kids are so happy we aren't fighting all the time now... You are AWESOME! Thanks for giving me and my family a chance at a better life."

If you often feel like you have flashes of brilliance and high potential, but are also often "stuck" and unable to make progress, or if you feel that you know what to do, but just can't make yourself do it, you have come to the right place. Welcome to the "tribe." You are not alone!

What you are going through is not normal "procrastination." It's a physical and chemical difference in the way your brain works that can lead to chronic, cyclical "stuckness." It can be caused by ADD, past emotional trauma, abuse, depression, brain injury, and more. When you don't understand what's happening to you, and you don't know what to do about it, it is incredibly frustrating. And well-meaning people give you advice and tips that just don't work and make you feel even worse. It's a vicious cycle. If you often feel like the part of you that "wants to do things" is completely disconnected from the part of you that "does things", you know exactly what I mean.

I've spent a lifetime integrating these seemingly disconnected selves and helping others do it too. My intention is to bring you the best of what REALLY works to shift your energy, get unstuck, get inspired into action, and get real results. My approach includes helping you:

  • Refocus on "what's right with you"
  • Rebuild your self-confidence by designing more success into your life
  • Identify and change unconscious thought, belief and emotional patterns that lead to stuckness
  • Clarify values and priorities, and resolve inner conflicts that keep you stuck
  • Learn how to set, communicate and negotiate clear personal boundaries with others in a way that actually strengthens your relationships and your own sense of self-worth
  • Set up ultra-simple systems that inspire you and make organizing a source of stress relief - not agony - so that you can more easily manage your life, home, actions, finances, work, and paper

"I've worked with organizers in the past, but Ariane is different. She doesn't impose a one-size-fits-all organizational strategy, but develops one tailored to who you are and how you work. Ariane is not only interested in getting you organized, but in making sure that she leaves you with a system that helps you to stay organized. With her help, I'm more productive than I've been in years!"
