1. **P - Pray First (2 min)**Simple surrender prayer + 3 deep breaths to calm nervous system
2. 
   
3. **E - Examine Scripture (2 min)**Does this align with biblical principles? God never contradicts His Word
4. 
   
5. **A - Assess Wise Counsel (1 min)**Seek 2-3 spiritually mature advisors (don't crowdsource)
6. 
   
7. **C - Check Your Peace (1 min)**Visualize each option, notice body's response - look for deep settledness
