Whether you know it or not, your relationship with others is influenced by something called Attachment Styles. The style in which we attached to others can cause us great joy, or great pain. Last week I spoke about what Attachment Styles are, and touched briefly on the 4 main styles. Today I am going more into Secure Attachment.  

Secure attachment style is the gold standard for healthy relationships. People with a secure attachment style tend to have high levels of self-esteem, emotional regulation, and communication skills, which makes them great partners and friends. They are able to express their needs and emotions openly and honestly, while also respecting the needs and boundaries of others. This creates a dynamic where both people feel valued, respected, and loved for who they are. If you're lucky enough to have a secure attachment style, cherish it and nurture it. If you're working on cultivating a secure attachment style, know that it's possible with self-awareness, communication, and a willingness to grow.

Although this is something I learned when I was studying to be a therapist, I have had 2 main mentors who have really helped me to understand this and how it plays out in our lives; Georgia Rose and Chantelle Raven. You can find out more about Georgia here on Facebook: www.facebook.com/georgiaroseevents

Here also are 2 different questionnaires on attachment styles for you to find out which dominant style you are: https://www.attachmentproject.com/attachment-style-quiz/
