Welcome to the Center
Our Mission
Our mission is to support emotional sovereignty, coherence, and human dignity
in an age where AI is woven into the fabric of human life.
We research, model and cultivate the relational principles that allow humans to stay
grounded and connected in a rapidly changing technological environment.
We combine psychology, civic strategy, and technology
to build tools that stabilize the nervous system
and make steadiness contagious.
When people breathe and listen,
they can imagine better futures together —
and co-invent the world they want to live in.
Our North Star: FBAB
AI gives us the power to find solutions For the Benefit of All Beings
FBAB [eff-bee-ay-bee] — noun: A guiding principle and design lens that honors the well-being of all living systems simultaneously: human, ecological, technological, and spiritual.
Usage:
“Before launching any idea, we ask: Does this meet FBAB standards and protect everyone’s dignity? If the answer is no, the design fails.”
Synonyms: Common Good 2.0 ; Human Coherence Governance ; Ethical Systems Design.
Antonyms: Zero-sum Optimization ; Extractive Efficiency.
why now
For the first time in human history, technology can amplify
– empathy and attunement, or
– chaos and manipulation
at a global scale.
If we bring biology and technology into calm alignment,
we have the conditions needed to keep growing human coherence systems like democracy.
why we bring people together
our first goal —
reset the human nervous system on a global scale
Every week hundreds of millions of people pray, meditate, breathe, share peace. These millions of mini rituals have always calmed the global nervous system.
Today, new technologies let us invent digital ways of spreading that same calm, joy, and coherence.
This is not "woo". It's human technology. And we are among the first to operationalize it.
our second goal -
imagine better futures together
When people feel calm, they can think clearly — and when they think clearly, they can create futures that make sense, the most basic definition of democracy.
We don’t choose those futures for anyone; we offer simple practices, small-group formats, and safe AI tools that help people think without panic, talk across differences, and explore ideas in ways that are accessible to all.
Better futures emerge when people feel steady enough, and connected enough, to imagine them together.

our safeguards
Human dignity is non-negotiable.
Our AI is built to regulate, clarify, and protect — never manipulate.
Human first. You lead; the system adapts.
Transparency. No hidden logic.
True consent. Nothing stored without agreement.
No manipulation. No hooks, nudges, traps.
Calm as infrastructure. Regulation built in.
Agency preserved. You stay in control.
This is the ethical spine of limbic sovereignty.
Why AI?
We live in one of the most exciting times in history - anyone can access a tool that can:
— process a million parameters calmly
— be programmed through natural conversation.
Our research shows that AI, when used with our safeguards, is accessible power for personal calm and democratic imagination.
what we believe
- Calm connection stabilizes society.
- Calm co-imagining is the heartbeat of democracy.
- Technology can help us gather at global scale.
- Dignity and respect are both the means and the end.
who we are
The European Center for Limbic Sovereignty is a non-profit research center, a think tank,
and a playground of civic imagination.
Founded on one biological principle:
The bond between us gives us power
- to steady one another,
- to imagine futures,
- to bring democracy to life.
We bring together:
Scholars
Clinicians
Civic leaders
Spiritual leaders
Tech gurus
Artists
Filmmakers
Out of the box thinkers

We’re gathering the first humans who feel this work in their bones —
who want to help invent a calmer, more joyful democracy.
