Your Nervous System with an Anxious Attachment

from Embodied Hearts · host Rachel Staley, LCSW

Episode 2: In this episode, we explore the anxious attachment style adaptation. I discuss how anxious attachment is often misunderstood and pigeonholed as being needy and clingy. I talk about how anxious attachment stems from growing up in an inconsistent or unpredictable environment, which fuels the desire for external relief and regulation. It's vital to understand the connection between attachment and the nervous system, and how shifting mindset alone is not enough to change attachment patterns. In order to shift you have to start learning how to take in more good and learn how to become attuned to the body as a way to move from an anxious attached state to a secure attached state.TakeawaysAnxious attachment is often misunderstood and labeled as being needy and clingy.Anxious attachment stems from growing up in an inconsistent or unpredictable environment.Understanding the connection between attachment and the nervous system is crucial for shifting attachment patterns.Taking in the good and becoming attuned to the body can help move from an anxious attached state to a secure attached state.✨Let's stay connected:Instagram: @healwithrachelAttachment & Nervous System Quiz: Unlock HereDive deeper into the self-paced private podcast course, Reconnect: Learn MoreI offer four long-term one-on-one slots per year: Apply Here✨Let's stay connected:Instagram: @healwithrachelMama Power Animal Quiz: Unlock HereDive deeper into the self-paced private podcast course, Reconnect: Learn MoreI offer long-term one-on-one slots for the woman ready for deep life changing nervous system healing: Apply HereReady for Round 2 of my group program "Becoming the Mother You Needed"?
