#375 - Anxiety in the Classroom: The Hidden Link to the Moro Reflex
Manage episode 502730160 series 2525913
In this episode, we dive deep into the connection between childhood anxiety and the retained Moro Reflex — and how both can impact children in the classroom. From understanding what anxiety looks like in a school setting, to uncovering the role of primitive reflexes, we’ll explore how to support children who struggle with heightened worry, reactivity, and sensory sensitivity.
A retained Moro reflex can mimic or worsen classroom anxiety. Kids may:
Overreact to sounds, lights, or unexpected touch
Struggle with transitions or changes in routine
Live in a constant state of fight-or-flight, making it harder to focus or socialize
Startle easily, avoid certain activities, or have ongoing challenges with attention
These signs may point to an underlying reflex that hasn’t fully integrated. Tune in to learn how understanding this mind-body connection can transform the way we support children in school and at home.
