What if the meltdowns, hyper energy, or constant battles you’re having with your child weren’t actually discipline problems—but sensory needs you didn’t even know existed?
In this episode of Intentional Motherhood, Kelsey unpacks the powerful yet often-overlooked vestibular system—our internal sense of balance and spatial awareness that lives in the inner ear. While you might not think about it much, the vestibular system is working behind the scenes every time your child spins, jumps, rocks, swings, or rolls across the floor. And here’s the game-changer: these movements aren’t “just play.” They’re your child’s way of regulating their nervous system, building focus, and finding emotional balance.
