Whether you’re looking to transform and deepen your current relationship to find the love of your deepest dreams and desires, understanding your attachment style creates emotional clarity for healthier relationships.
How we bonded with our parents, specifically our mother, forms patterns of communication and how we view and address conflict, expectation, intimacy, and sensual expression. It molds how deeply we open ourselves to another in a relationship.
We’re programmed at the DNA level to create deep, meaningful bonds with others. Our brains are still evolving from the ancient mechanisms of constant danger. Our instincts have honed through the ages to protect. We may not be constantly defending ourselves from doom, yet we’re still wired to weigh potential threats that affect our physical stability and emotional wellbeing - even those seemingly subtle concerns of insecurity, abandonment, or feeling smothered can inhibit our vulnerability, trust, and openness in a relationship.
We have a basic human need to create closeness with one another, yet the way in which we do that varies just as we vary in nature.
Attachment styles are not about labeling one or another right or wrong or good or bad. Rather, they offer a greater understanding of your nature and how you can adopt healthier ways of communicating your needs and realistic expectations in your loving relationships as well as lean into a more secure style of attaching with your partner.
What are the three main attachment styles?
Ready to Chase (Anxious)
You may often feel anxious or insecure in relationships and subconsciously fear abandonment.
Ready to Run (Avoidant)
You may feel overwhelmed by commitment or withdraw when emotions intensify.
Ready to Receive (Secure)
You typically feel open and at ease in relationships. Communicating your emotions and needs comes naturally.
Which attachment style do you have?
Do you feel a sense of ease in getting close to others and rarely worry about being abandoned or someone getting too close? You’re Ready to Receive and Secure
Do you find it difficult to trust others and feel overworked or nervous when someone gets too close? You’re often Ready to Run and Avoidant
Do you crave closeness that never seems to measure up? Are you worried that the other person won’t stay or doesn’t truly love you? You’re more Ready to Chase and Anxious
Rethinking attitudes and behaviors with your attachment style knowledge can encourage a deepening of your current relationship or how you select and engage with future relationship potentials. Principles and practices of personal development with self love can support our transformation and bring greater balance to our primary attachment style.
