Primitive Reflexes Moro/Startle Reflex demonstration: Madonna Guy ND

Here Madonna Guy discusses briefly the Moro Reflex, how we can calm it down are reconnect areas of the brain that are suffering a disconnect due to a jammed primitive reflex: the Moro reflex is linked to learning and behavioural problems, as well as mood disorders. The Moro Reflex is the big mumma of them all - if it's activated longer than it should, or is reactivated during times of stress (accidents, hormonal changes, birth of children etc) then it can start impacting on our lives and the world around us. An active moro reflex can cause many health problems, being another way of keeping fight and flight responses up and running. By doing the exercise morning and night along with flower essences and kinesiology balancing, we can start to calm it down so it no longer impacts so heavily on us. It's not a bad idea to have some support while you are unravelling your Primitive Reflexes - as they can cause your fight and flight responses to worse in the short term and there are calming nutrients and herbs (such as magnesium, passionflower, valerian, kava, GABA) and find something that works for you and helps you through the process!
