Neural Oscillatory Dynamics and Electromagnetic Homeostasis in Trauma and Consciousness: A Physical Substrate Account of Coherence, Decoherence, and Re-Entrainment

Key Points

To explore how coordinated ecological homeostasis relates to conscious awareness and trauma dynamics.
Developed a formal systems framework for studying consciousness and trauma.
Examined Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) as an instance of attractor collapse.
Analyzed the concept of healing as recalibration of the system and reattribution of sources.
Consciousness is derived from coordinated interactions rather than localized neural pathways.
C-PTSD reflects a bifurcation leading to maladaptive survival-oriented states.
Healing involves precise adjustments that stabilize the conscious system.

Abstract

This paper proposes a formal systems framework in which sustained conscious awarenesscorresponds to coordinated ecological homeostasis across interacting biological scales.Consciousness is modeled as a stability profile emerging from cross-scale regulatorycoupling rather than a localized neural substrate. Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder(C-PTSD) is examined as a naturally occurring example of attractor collapse within thisarchitecture—a fold bifurcation in high-dimensional state space producing capture bysurvival-oriented maladaptive attractors. Healing is formalized as precision recalibrationand source reattribution.
