Healing relational wounds and deepen connection with Somatic Attachment Therapy
Relationships can inspire our deepest sense of connection, joy and belonging - both to ourselves and others however they can also provoke our deepest insecurities, pains, and disconnection. In our quiet moments we recognise that our past relationships leave an imprint on our nervous system that plays out in our daily lives. It's like our early experiences of relationships become embedded into the fabric of who we are and how we are in the world.
When our early relationships made us feel unsafe, unseen or not good enough, the idea of opening ourselves up to others can be terrifying. We might shut down, push people away, or repeat the same hurtful relationship patterns over and over again.
“Our basic blueprint as humans is connection and bonding- sometimes we just need the right support at the right time to find our way back home.”
But these patterns can shift- they don't have to be our destiny. We can be free from the cycles that block us from feeling true connection, ease or happiness with ourselves and other people. Through a somatic approach to attachment therapy, we can learn how to help ourselves and others to rewire and reconnect, at all levels regardless of the past. Ultimately somatic attachment therapy can support us to experience an embodied sense of belonging and living a fulfilled life.
Somatic attachment therapy helps us to build a more intimate, safer and authentic relationship with ourselves. It an help us to foster compassionate, and nurturing relationships with those that matter to us most - our partners, families, children and our friends. Somatic attachment therapy helps to support others to heal the wiring of relation wounds so that together we can create a culture of connection.
