The Emotional Navigation System
Your emotional GPS—except this one actually works when you're lost
ENS™ is a complete framework for navigating emotional complexity. Five interconnected components working together to help you stop spiraling and start navigating.
The 5 Core Components
Strategic Intelligence
Cognitive
Your emotional pattern recognition system. Learn to see the patterns you couldn't see before.
"What patterns am I not seeing?"
Tactical Awareness
Nervous System
Real-time emotional navigation when plans meet reality. This is where RECALCULATING happens.
"What's actually happening right now?"
Emotional Mobility
Somatic
Your capacity management system. How much emotional load can you carry right now?
"What can I actually handle right now?"
Physical Capacity (Gary)
Nervous System
Your body's warning and regulation system. When your right eye starts twitching, Gary is speaking.
"What is my body trying to tell me?"
Integrated Operations
Integration
All systems working together. This is what navigation looks like when it all clicks.
"How do all my systems coordinate?"
The 3-Tool Crisis Navigation Sequence™
These aren't three separate tools—they're a single, three-stage sequence. Each stage creates the conditions for the next.
The Emergency Brake
Stop, Drop, Roll
Your instant crisis intervention. The 13-second protocol that stops you from BECOMING the problem while you're on fire.
STOP (3 sec)
Physical interrupt
DROP (10 sec)
Mental release
ROLL (Variable)
Distance creation
Name It, Tame It, Reclaim It
Emotional Processing
Your emotional first aid kit. Use AFTER the Emergency Brake creates space. Process the burns, turn raw emotion into navigation data.
NAME IT
Recognition
TAME IT
Regulation
RECLAIM IT
Integration
RECALCULATE

Get from "what just happened" to "what happens next." Your GPS doesn't apologize when it recalculates—it just finds a new route.

Strip the stories
What's my state?
Check capacity
What's the route?
Find Plan B
The EDFI™ Scale

Smoldering
Annoying, but manageable. You got this.
Active Burn
Getting warm. Time to pay attention.

Send backup. This is bad.
