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.
