nəc̓aʔmat — Practice (Coherence ON/OFF)

Binary **coherence gate** for ethical action. We act when the field is coherent; we pause and restore when it isn’t. BODY ⇄ MIND ⇄ SPIRIT alignment before movement. No coercion; dignity preserved.

The Gate (ON/OFF)

[bomb]nəc̓aʔmat|Coherence state of the situation; ON authorises action, OFF requires restoration.[/bomb]

  • ON: timing fits, supports are proportionate, path back is visible, limits are predictable.
  • OFF: friction spikes, signals conflict, options vanish, posture is slipping. **Do not push.**

Gate is **validated by outcomes**, not declared by adults. We never compel interior confirmations.

WHEN THE GATE IS ON (MOVE)

1) Brush — Small Entry

Bounded start (10‑sec / one line); remove ambiguity; shrink stakes.

2) Invite — Visible Ladders

Offer Level‑1 and Level‑2 rungs: [bomb]A/B Choice|Two viable ways to act now.[/bomb] Keep re‑entry cheap.

3) Govern — Limits with Dignity

“Feelings allowed. Harm isn’t. We repair, then re‑enter.” Predictable, non‑humiliating boundaries.

4) Repair — Fast if Needed

Impact → empathise → boundary → next tiny step. Return agency the moment control returns.

WHEN THE GATE IS OFF (PAUSE → RESTORE)

Step A — Posture Reset

[bomb]Clear Mirror, Calm Water|Regulate yourself first; reflect reality without being pulled in.[/bomb]

Step B — Cost Scan (C/E/E)

Which cost is spiking? [bomb]Cognitive|Task size/clarity[/bomb] • [bomb]Emotional|Shame risk/uncertainty[/bomb] • [bomb]Environmental|Noise/timing/sensory[/bomb]

Step C — Convert Conflict → Constraint

Use routines/placement/timing to deflect pressure on WHAT into a limit on HOW.

Step D — Re‑Invite

Offer the **smallest viable** re‑entry (Level‑1). If friction rises, step back to **Reset → Flux**.

FAST SIGNALS LIBRARY

Likely ON

  • Repetition with control (even tiny).
  • Willingness to sample a bounded start.
  • Student accepts a visible ladder rung.

Likely OFF

  • Collapse/rigidity; options vanish.
  • Escalation to protect dignity (calling out, bolt, refusal).
  • Adult posture slips; narration gets long.

Do / Don’t

  • Do: shrink task, soften time, change place.
  • Don’t: compel disclosures; escalate language; trade dignity for speed.
MICRO‑SCRIPTS
  • “We’ll move when the water’s clear. I’ll help make it clear.”
  • “Two ways to try — pick your rung.”
  • “We repair first; then we re‑enter.”
  • “Let’s make the next step cheaper.”

nəc̓aʔmat keeps practice ethical: action only when coherent. If OFF, we restore before we move.
