Threat versus Safety Theory is offered as an illuminated raw specimen on a microscope platform for the benefit of anyone who wishes to see something differently from a previous reality. TVST is a look at how life is ever changing along the spectrum of threat through safety. TVST starts with the oldest and simplest life forms and ends with the most complex and newest life forms humansto explain chronic disease disability, pain, and suffering. TVST postulates that where we are on the threat versus safety spectrum determines whether we exist in disease and despair or in health and happiness.
TVST explains how the interface of the environment with our genetic code determines our health, feelings, behaviors, relationships, thoughts, narratives, beliefs, and connections. Our internal and external environment plays our genetic code much like someone plays the keys on a pianodisconcerting noise and appealing music are both possible.
TVST uses biology and physiology to explain the modern human condition and why we are failing as a species to fulfill our primary purpose-to protect and propagate our genetic code. We are destroying our planet, our home, and we are failing our progeny, our children. There will be a tipping point from which the species will not return...unless we correct course. With realistic pragmatism, TVST offers a new paradigm and considerations for a new treatment algorithm to restore the human species. Finally, TVST is an invitation to participate and collaborate in the evolution of the paradigm and in the application of the algorithm for the improvement of the human conditiona must-read for all of humankind.
