Chances are, you've had several relationships throughout your
life. Some are ongoing (friends, family, etc.) Some ended.
(boyfriends/girlfriends, spouses, lovers.) Some maybe even ended
badly. If you reflect on the relationships that ended badly, and on
the times in your ongoing relationships where things weren't going
so well, do you notice any patterns in your behavior and reactions?
If so, you are likely starting to uncover your attachment
style.
In this episode, Dr. Ron Frederick, psychologist and author of
"Loving Like You Mean It" breaks down the four basic attachment
styles, explains where they come from (childhood, of course), and
how to use emotional mindfulness to build stronger, healthier and
happier relationships. He also offers up a simple, four-step
approach to help you break free from old habits, befriend your
emotional experience, and develop new ways of relating.
