S1 Episode 3: Understanding What a Child's Brain Needs from Birth - Lucia speaks with Dr. Josh Madsen
Description
In this enlightening episode, Lucia invites Dr. Josh Madsen, a leading expert in pediatric neurology, to delve deeper into what our children's brains require from birth and the crucial role of primitive reflexes on brain development.
Primitive reflexes, innate involuntary movements in infants, are fundamental for early survival. Dr. Madsen highlights their significance and how uninhibited reflexes can hinder cognitive growth.
Key Takeaways
- Primitive reflexes are instinctual movements crucial for early survival and development.
- Uninhibited reflexes can impede essential cognitive functions, leading to challenges in areas like attention and balance.
- Short, consistent exercises targeting primitive reflexes can lead to significant improvements in brain function.
- Regulating diet, engaging in sensory activities, and incorporating movement-based exercises play pivotal roles in enhancing cognitive development.
- The brain possesses remarkable adaptability (neuroplasticity), especially in children, and with targeted interventions, we can guide our children towards healthier brain development and improved cognitive function.
Dr. Josh Madsen leaves us with the empowering knowledge that the brain possesses remarkable adaptability, especially in children. With understanding and targeted interventions, we can guide our children towards healthier brain development and improved cognitive function.
