Reflex
A reflex is a quick, automatic response of the body to a stimulus, often occurring without a conscious decision.
Definition
Reflexes help you respond quickly to threats or changes in the environment. They may be innate, like withdrawing your hand from pain, or modified by experience. In personal development, it is important to distinguish a body reflex from a conscious action, because only after the reflex there is room for regulation.
