Reflexes, Movement, Learning & Behaviour addresses: Why the physical basis for learning
is important? How immaturity in aspects of physical development impacts learning, emotional
wellbeing and behaviour? How this can be identified? How can this be assessed and what
forms of remediation are available?
Reflexes, Movement, Learning & Behaviour covers an area of education and emotional wellbeing
that either tends to be over-looked or falls between professional domains. It provides information
that can help parents, teachers and other professionals to understand what lies behind the under-achieving child and adults who suffer from balance-related anxiety disorders. The method fills a yawning gap in ‘the system’, which often fails to recognise underlying physical factors in under-achievement, behavioural and emotional problems. Identifying some of the mechanics involved is the first stage in moving from victimhood to being able to live with a problem and in many cases, overcome it. It helps parents and teachers to understand children better, introduce more effective coping strategies if needed and ideally correct some of the underlying problems enabling children and adults to become more resilient and flexible in response to stress and to realise their potential.
