If your child wakes up already overwhelmed, it’s not a motivation issue and it’s not poor routines. 💤🧠
It’s often a nervous system that didn’t fully reset overnight.
Sleep quantity can look “fine” on paper while true recovery is still missing. When the system stays taxed, mornings feel harder, emotions run hotter, and small demands feel big.
We look beyond bedtime charts and behavior charts to understand what’s keeping a child’s nervous system from restoring efficiently, so their day isn’t starting in deficit.
Have mornings been harder than you expected, even with good sleep habits?
