Therapeutic Education: Canonical Statement (v3.0)

Description

This document presents the third version of the Canonical Statement 
of Therapeutic Education — an emerging research framework for 
understanding the conditions under which learning remains possible 
when educational engagement becomes neurologically inaccessible 
under stress, overload, or fluctuating cognitive capacity.

The framework proposes four structural variables — enterability, 
entry cost, capacity, and continuity — and a founding ethical 
boundary: education must not demand what a nervous system cannot give.

This statement is published as a working document intended for 
academic examination, critique, and interdisciplinary dialogue.
