## Resource

Why do some kids melt down over seemingly small things? In this episode, occupational therapist Renee Courier breaks down how children’s brains develop, including the reflexes we’re born with and how they’re meant to integrate over time. She explains what happens when those reflexes don’t fully evolve—and how that can impact a child’s ability to process emotions, handle sensory input, and stay regulated. We explore why everyday sights, sounds, or physical sensations can feel overwhelming for some children, and how to better understand what’s really triggering those reactions. Most importantly, Renee shares simple, practical tools and exercises to help kids feel safe in their bodies, regulate their emotions, and move through overstimulation with more ease. A must-listen for parents and caregivers looking to better understand and support their child’s emotional world.
