The 4 Pillars of Stability (Quick Reference)

When overwhelmed, stabilize in order

---

1. Physiological Stability

Regulate the body first.
Sleep. Water. Breath. Movement.

---

2. Cognitive Clarity

Separate facts from projections.
Reduce variables. Delay irreversible decisions.

---

3. Relational Containment

Do not isolate.
Seek calm, not escalation.

---

4. Structural Anchoring

Reclaim micro-control.
Complete one small task.

Life.Understood.
