When the brain senses danger,





                                         it gets ready for survival















































                When our brain senses any threat or danger, it turns down         the



                energy-greedy parts of our body.













                The part of our brain in charge of Executive Function Skills is turned



                down.        These skills become weaker.


















                It is hard to be deliberate,



                calm and flexible.








                It is harder to focus,



                process and remember



                information.
