The MUST KNOW Theory to Heal Your Relationships
Trust and safety are the foundation of any great relationship.
But that’s easier said than done. The relationship you have with your primary caregiver sets the tone for the rest of your attachment styles in your relationships.
However, when you are equipped with more knowledge, skills, and tools, your childhood doesn’t have to define your adult relationships.
In this episode of the Untapped Podcast we take you behind the scenes of our 3-Day Live Training on Relationships and Communication. This is an insight into just 30 minutes of the three hours we spent on attachment styles and attachment theory.
We dive into what attachment theory is, what are the different attachment styles, and how you can use these to create trust and safety in your relationship.
An example:
Briony has an anxious attachment style, and Dalaney has an avoidant one. Bri also gets up about four hours before D in the mornings so was often bursting to discuss the morning, ask him questions, and set up a to-do list for the day.
D, on the other hand, had his nervous system FLOODED when he woke up because Bri was messaging him on every platform or chatting to him as he walked out of their bedroom.
The solution that works for them is as simple as a hug every morning.
When D gets up, he and Bri share a hug for a minute or so to start their day regulated, assured, loved and seen.
While Bri might not get to share all of her to-do lists, she feels connected. While D might not get 3 hours of alone time, the hug regulates his system too.
Listen to this week’s Untapped podcast to explore how you can uncover your attachment style, and how to use your new understanding to transform your relationships.
