The bodily symptoms of anxiety\, such as increased heart rate\, sweating\, shakiness\, headaches\, butterflies in our stomach\, etc.\, urge us to decide fast whether to fight\, flee or freeze from a threatening situation. Life is often fast-paced and requires a lot of our time and energy\, and our children are not an exception to that. We all have varied definitions of what situations are threatening to us\, and our perception is shaped by our experiences; what you might find threatening\, another person may find easy to deal with. Just being aware of when our body is going into a fight\, flight or freeze or fawn mode can be a considerable tool for enabling us to overcome our worry and anxiety. \nAbout Madhuri Deshmukh\nMadhuri Deshmukh is a school counselor at Denver Waldorf School.
