Do you feel like your insecure attachment hinders you from having certain relationship skills?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Knowing we have an insecure attachment style<\/a> can feel pretty dooming at times. We might think we are destined to fall into unhealthy patterns of behaviors in relationships because we\u2019re struggling to escape our past . However, this doesn\u2019t have to be the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re here to show you that attachment styles<\/a> aren’t linear, and that having an insecure attachment style isn\u2019t mutually exclusive from secure traits.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The child feels safe<\/h3>\n
\n

An attuned caregiver will give a strong sense of protection, yet will not be overbearing or intrusive, and certainly not neglectful.<\/p>\n

The child feels safe to explore and someone to watch over them as they do.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n
\n \"\"\n

The child feels seen and known<\/h3>\n
\n

An attuned caregiver will understand and anticipate their child\u2019s cues.<\/p>\n

They respond accurately to their child\u2019s signals both promptly and predictably.<\/p>\n

This allows the child to feel in control from early on.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n
\n \"\"\n

The child feels comfort, soothing, and reassurance<\/h3>\n
\n

In case of distress, the caregiver is a reassuring and soothing force.<\/p>\n

The caregiver has a calming presence that effectively brings the child to a calm emotional state.<\/p>\n

This attunement helps the child develop self-soothing and emotion regulation skills.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n
\n \"\"\n

The child feels valued<\/h3>\n
\n

The caregiver expresses their joy repeatedly and consistently.<\/p>\n

Their expression of delight is focused on Being rather than Doing.<\/p>\n

This ultimately helps the child develop a healthy self-esteem.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

\n
\n \"\"\n

The child feels supported to be their best self<\/h3>\n
\n

Caregivers have a deep faith in their child\u2019s ability to succeed and to overcome failure.<\/p>\n

They are very involved and present in their child\u2019s life, bringing them closer to autonomy and independence.<\/p>\n

Providing this sense of confidence and security helps the child to become autonomous and to have a strong sense of self.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
