Now, typically by about three or four months of age in a baby, that reflex shouldn't be there anymore.

Okay.

So what happens with all of these little reflexes is they're there in the first year of life.

They come up, they get stimulated.

You see them and you see these repeated movements.

And when they've had enough stimulation, they go.

okay and it's the same for all of us there's a sequence in that first year of life for all of us now what happens if it gets stuck if it doesn't go and that can happen for all sorts of reasons i mean i've seen seen it babies that have had very traumatic births that have had you know sort of

early traumatic interventions, had to be in the ICU, had an emergency C-section or ones maybe where the mother had a lot of trauma during the pregnancy.

None of these are directly causal, but there are lots of correlated factors between them.

And if it gets stuck, it basically means you are locked in that panicky moro mode just beneath the surface.

for the rest of your life because it doesn't just go on its own.

So I've worked with countless, not just older children, adults with a full-blown, fully retained mori reflex that shouldn't be there.

We test it just the same way a doctor tests it and either it's there or it isn't there.

It's very clear to see.

And if it's there, you can't reason with it.

So, you know, if someone were to walk in here and slam the door shut, okay, I'd probably look up and think, oh, what's that?

And then I'd realize it's just someone slamming the door and I'd calm down.

If you've got a morrow, you'd be...

You won't calm down after that.

Your heart's going to be racing for a long period of time.
