What are Attachment styles and how do they impact our relationships?

Attachment styles are a habitual pattern of relating to others. Specifically significant relationships , like a parent, a romantic partner or maybe even a best friend. Mostly we are talking about how one responds relationally in these relationships around points of connection and disconnection. So, basically what we do when we start to feel insecure or dis-connected. Or when that sense of safety, closeness or trust with a partner feels threatened.

There are four different attachment styles

1. Secure Attachment
2. Anxious Attachment
3. Avoidant Attachment
4. Disorganized Attachment

Coming in, having that awareness, helps you sort of know when you're being triggered and you can pause. Then you can make a choice to have a different reaction or to respond in a different way.
