Description

👉 Download the Connect My Brain app on Apple or Google Play! (it's free) As kids head back to school, I'm seeing more transition struggles than ever. In this episode, I break down the brain science behind why your child might be having a tough time adjusting to the new school year. I also explain how the Moro reflex affects whether your child feels safe or anxious, and why shortened summer breaks are impacting our kids' development. We'll dive into how modern school safety drills, while necessary, can create lasting anxiety patterns in young minds. You'll learn why focus issues aren't always ADD/ADHD, and how 94% of vision involves scanning for safety - making it nearly impossible for anxious kids to concentrate in class. Plus, I share insights about how COVID-era mask wearing affected toddlers' hearing and social development. If your child is struggling with back to school transitions, this episode will help you understand what's really happening in their developing brain.
