Can synapses be rewired? 🧠
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The brain isn’t fixed; it constantly changes and adapts based on experience, learning, and practice. Every time you try something new, form a habit, or challenge your mind, your synapses are reshaping themselves, all thanks to the power of neuroplasticity 🌿

Temper tantrums are a normal and healthy part of child development! 🌪️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They’re your child’s brain learning to manage big emotions, communicate needs, and practice self-regulation. Most tantrums are a typical stage of growth, but if you ever feel unsure or notice extreme or persistent behaviors, talking to a professional can help rule out deeper concerns.

Big emotions can feel overwhelming… but naming them can actually help calm your brain 🧠💭
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When we put feelings into words, the brain’s emotional centers quiet down and we gain more control over our reactions. That’s why the Name It to Tame It technique can be helpful with emotional regulation!

REM sleep isn’t just for dreams 💤✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
During REM, your brain processes memories, regulates emotions, and clears the mental clutter from the day. Missing out on it can leave you foggy, irritable, and less able to learn. Treat your REM like a priority. It’s essential brain care!

When it comes to understanding the brain, family history matters!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
During a neuropsychological evaluation, clinicians often ask about medical, neurological, and psychological conditions in your family. This context helps them see the whole picture, because genetics and shared environments can shape patterns in attention, memory, mood, and cognition.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s not about finding blame, but rather finding insight. Understanding your family history helps clinicians tailor interpretations, guide recommendations, and support your brain health more effectively!
