Nervous System Intelligence: A Conceptual Framework for State-Based Regulation (Version 1.0). Peer-aligned preprint published via Zenodo | DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.17272104
This foundational paper introduces the Nervous System Intelligence (NSI) architecture, a state-based regulatory model that defines how human systems recover from stress, stabilise, and scale safely under load. Grounded in polyvagal theory, systems neuroscience, AI safety principles and applied organisational practice, it establishes the basis for the forthcoming NSI Standard, a global safety and capacity framework for clinical, corporate and AI-mediated environments.
A practical companion to the Nervous System Intelligence (NSI) framework.
This guide distils nine fast-acting, biologically-validated regulation methods, designed to interrupt overload or shutdown in under two minutes, while also building long-term nervous system capacity when practised consistently over 12+ weeks.
Used by clinicians, executives, and practitioners across the NSE network, this resource demonstrates how state-based recovery works in the real world, as the first layer of safe intervention before behaviour change, strategy, or performance demands.
