1. Basic health stuff. Regular exercise, healthy diet. That stuff. (That alone doesn't do much, but you need vitamins and proteins and stuff to repair the cellular damage done by nervous system dysregulation)

3. Neuromodulation (Somatic Experiencing, Somatic Practice, and stuff, letting out all the trauma)
4. Neurorelaxation (a lot of sleep and downtime after you release trauma – you can now be regulated)
5. Neurodifferentiation/ Learning (Which is basically where talk therapy would belong)
