Cognitive and regulatory processes in organism are ensured by the functioning of several different network systems – neural, endocrine, immune, and gene ones. These systems are, however, closely related between them and form a single integrated neurogenohumoral cognitive-regulatory dynamic system of organism. A review of publications is given which shows that it is possible to associate with this dynamic system a corresponding Lyapunov function (energy function, potential function) and that analyzing this function allows, because of its geometrical insight, to easily discover a set of general properties of cognitive and regulatory functioning of organism.
