Nervous System Logic

Nervous system logic is the organising logic the nervous system follows when it detects threat and mobilises protection. Symptoms, behaviours, emotions and bodily responses are not random; they make sense when we understand what the nervous system detected, what it was trying to do, what prevented that response from succeeding, and what it continues to organise around as a result. This logic is not always the same as the logic of the conscious mind. Both can be correct, but they are solving different problems. Read: The Logic of the Mind vs the Logic of the Nervous System.

The mind asks whether the present is different from the past.
The nervous system asks whether the outcome can be different.
Both can be logical. They are solving different problems.

Home of the Biological Completion Model™ (BCM)

BCM is structured around nervous system logic. It asks what threat was detected, what defensive response was recruited, what interrupted it, and what the system is trying to complete.
