INTEGRATE

After Stability, Extract Strength

Regulation ends escalation.

Integration prevents repetition.

Most people stabilize and move on.

This section is different.

It is used only after emotional intensity has lowered and cognitive clarity has returned. Its purpose is not to relive the event — but to extract insight, adjust structure, and strengthen resilience.

Stability restores equilibrium.
Integration upgrades baseline.

Tools in This Section

The Post-Crisis Integration Review
A structured reflection instrument to extract signal from destabilizing events. Separate facts from distortions. Identify what helped and what harmed.

The Pattern Upgrade Plan
Translate insight into permanent structural adjustment. Convert awareness into boundary, routine, or decision rule changes that prevent repetition.

The Resilience Inventory
Identify strengths that surfaced under pressure. Reinforce capacities revealed by stress instead of focusing only on breakdown.

• Emotional intensity has subsided
