Keeping us safe: Squirrel Attention




          When there is danger, our brain automatically switches our attention

          to high alert Squirrel Attention.





         ▪ This fills our body full of energy.






         ▪ It also helps us to notice everything

              going on around us.






         ▪ It is the brain’s clever way of keeping us

              safe.




         ▪ People with more energy can get away

              from a danger such as fire more quickly.




         ▪ People who notice everything are better at escaping danger, such as

              noticing part of a building falling and jumping out of the way.
