Episode notes
Attachment Styles Form Early And Flex
- Attachment styles form from early caregiver attunement and shape adult relationship patterns.
- People store multiple attachment patterns and can move between them depending on relationships and context.
Heal Wounds With Somatic Anchoring
- Do somatic work with a safe anchor to heal attachment wounds stored as bodily sensations.
- Use an anchor who is calm, nonjudgmental and can co-regulate while you revisit earlier states.
Find Or Build An Anchor Network
- If you lack an anchor, resource people who can co-anchor or seek therapists trained in somatics.
- Read the book and gradually build capacity until you can safely revisit earlier wounds with support.
