Attachment Style Healing

Humans are a social survival based species, and we have a style in we attach to other humans, called an Attachment Style. It'll be either Secure Attachment or Insecure Attachment. 

Insecure attachment consists of Anxious, Avoidant, or Anxious (Fearful) -Avoidant. Secure Attachment is boring, healthy, and is the goal.

Avoidant Attachment

Avoidant Attachment

For those with an anxious attachment style securing a mate and keeping them is of utmost importance, however when the mate gets too close they react to escape the relationship to avoid being hurt again.

For those with an avoidant attachment style, avoiding relationships and sabotaging the ones that get too close is a survival strategy to avoid being hurt again.

The Fearful Avoidant attachment style has the most red flags on it in the dating world, and is the attachment style I’m healing from.


This is the messy cycle of the dating pool people seem to get stuck in.

Secure Attachment

Anxious (Fearful) Avoidant / Disorganized

Anxious (Fearful) Avoidant / Disorganized

If a mother becomes attuned with her baby, she will understand the different cries, and respond to her baby’s needs, immediately knowing whether her baby is hungry, needs their diaper changed, or simply wants connected attention. Her baby will learn that it’s safe to rely on others to have their needs met, and feel secure in doing so, which is the basis of developing a secure attachment style. 

Attachment Healing

Healing Attachment

Our attachment style plays out in life in subconscious patterns, and it’s important to note these patterns are developed and not permanent. It takes uncomfortable and persistent work to change them, and they can be changed. To someone with an insecure attachment either anxious, avoidant, or anxious avoidant, someone with a secure attachment style may seem boring, and one person with a broken system seeks out another person with a broken system to experience familiar impulsive action with until this pattern is corrected.
