Strong Evidence Base

1. Mindfulness Meditation - FREE

2. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) - $6,000 to $12,000 w/o insurance

Might (NOT) Help: Weaker Evidence

1. Empowerment Self-Defense (ESD) - $200 to $4000

  • Unfortunately, I cannot ethically recommend specific ESD providers due to so many (both non-profits and for profits) charging excessively high hourly fees to victims and survivors.
  • By 2027, I will be pilot-testing a low-cost, scalable solution for the entire U.S., and maybe the rest of the world. However, I will also be researching potential negative spillover effects since this has not been researched before. If there are negative spillover effects, I will look for cost-effective ways to mitigate them (e.g. screen out bad actors, etc.) Several ESD practitioners will likely oppose my research efforts because it cuts into their profits. I will likely lose my ESD instructor certification when I announce my study (I am currently training to become an ESD instructor).

    Please look up the multitude of NIHS and other studies showing the benefits of getting the right nutrients, notable vitamin d3, b vitamins or a b complex, fish oil or similar EPA and DHA oils. Plus the less tested but promising lions mane and other mushroom extract, lots of things of magic ones, and things that have BDNF or simulate it
