Most of my clients have some form of insecure attachment (hence my podcast series dedicated to it!). Whether anxious, avoidant or a combination of both, getting to a place of non-attachment is a major undertaking. When starting down the path, it can feel downright impossible to detach from what someone else does or says… and to achieve an inner feeling of peace. That’s because wherever you turn, you’re attached to an outcome or how you’re perceived. This stuff is insidious! Emotional freedom, peace and happiness ARE possible, but not while remaining in a state of attachment.

Let’s be clear about something: we’re not striving for perfection. We’re moving toward a state of awareness and the ability to let go. You want to get to a place where whatever everyone else does is ok because it’s not about you; you’re able to separate and not take things personally. It’s about learning to live and let live because you really DON’T have control. It’s also about taking care of your feelings… honoring whatever they are… and accepting them as part of you. When you stop grasping at the outer drama and internalizing it, an organic transition starts to happen. There is a shift in the way you respond to the outside world because it’s no longer a reflection of what’s inside. The external does not define you. It’s a hell of a road toward non-attachment, but the freedom, love and happiness that await are so completely worth it.
