Hi, I’m Chris, one of the co-founders of Shimmer. Last October, following my ADHD diagnosis, I launched Shimmer (https://shimmer.care), one-to-one ADHD Coaching for adults. Our HN launch was here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33468611. A quick recap before I dive into our new launch: Shimmer is an ADHD coaching service for adults.

Two years ago, someone on HN shared an interesting ADHD hack: a tiny LED that blinks at 120 bpm and gradually slows to 60 bpm, supposedly helping your brain sync and calm down into focus mode.
