Affection, fondness, sympathy… emotional regulations that EVERYBODY experiences in their lifetime. But have you ever considered how these emotions can manifest into the way you ATTACH yourself to the things around you?
Attachment theory is an evolutionary theory used to categorize people into different connective styles; ultimately, they aid in describing the dynamics of someone’s interpersonal relationships with others. And it’s such a vast spectrum, there are so many kinds of connectivity!
According to the theory’s founder John Bowlby, the attachment relationship one may experience in childhood acts as a prototype for all future social relationships. Disrupting the relationships we have with our loved ones early on, especially our parents, can have severe consequences.
FYI, this doesn’t exclude any particular kind of relationship in your life… it encompasses ALL of them!
Every beautiful, meaningful relationship you will establish is activated through the earliest foundations of your perceived reality! Romantic, platonic, familial, even professional… Your attachment style can influence how you communicate & receive love or affection.
Don’t you think it’s time to LEARN about your attachment style so you can SURPASS all your expectations? Here are the four KEY attachment styles:
Secure: Someone with a secure attachment will feel safety and security at their core. These individuals can experience external fluctuations, but maintain a core sense of stability. Secure attachment also creates a willingness for individuals to have open and honest money conversations with themselves, partners, and collaborators.
Anxious: This insecure attachment manifests a high fear, anxiety, and insecurity. Anxious attachment can be summed up as “I can’t see you = you’re not here and never will be.” Then, resulting in emotional anguish and anxiety. The goals aren’t grounded in reality, but instead are set sky-high so they can emotionally escape their discomfort.
Dismissive Avoidant: Those with D/A attachment will shut down when tension arises in their relationships. This emotional shutdown causes the individual to bury inwards + break off emotional connection with the outside world- which perpetuates the cycle. Individuals with dismissive avoidant attachment are all about “I’ll abandon you before you can abandon me.”
Fearful Avoidant: This style creates an emotional roller coaster of high highs and low lows. There’s a constant push and pull of deeply wanting to be safe while simultaneously being terrified of exactly that happening. Their greatest desire is also their greatest fear.
