Summary

Why do we experience recurring struggles in our relationships? And why do traumatic events - such as a physical injury, emotional threat, loss of a loved one, or other life crisis - so often awaken or amplify our sense of fear, anger, isolation, or helplessness?

From our earliest years, teaches Diane Poole Heller, we develop an attachment style that follows us through life, replaying in our intimate relationships, with our children, and at work. And traumatic events can deeply affect that core relational blueprint.

With Healing Your Attachment Wounds, a pioneer in attachment theory and trauma resolution brings together these two fields to help us understand and benefit from their complementary principles and methods.

This in-depth audio learning program sheds light on the three styles of insecure attachment - Avoidant, Ambivalent, and Disorganized - and the ideal fourth style of Secure attachment, where we enjoy a foundation of safety, adaptability, and intimacy with others.

The good news is that we can change, regardless of our early or current life experiences.

"As we heal and move toward Secure attachment," teaches Heller, "we become aware of triggers and patterns in our relationships. Our nervous system learns to be more regulated. Things don't throw us off so easily. And we open our capacity to love and experience greater compassion."

Through key principles, examples, and practical exercises, this program invites you to begin your own healing journey toward healthy vulnerability, wholeness, and connection with others.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Poor voice exception content

I've relistened to the book so may times, it goes really deep with the revelations and reflections. Take your time and remember to find a way to heal the wounds as well as identify them. It a work book with meditation and a few practises. Excellent.

Eye-opening!

I feel more equipped to navigate romantic relationships. The book was very conversational, almost like listening to a long podcast. I very much enjoyed that style of narration.

Awesome

Great information on attachment wounds, how they form, how to recognise them in yourself and others, and most importantly, what to do to heal and move towards a healthy attachment style.

Accessible and informative

I have read a few books on attachment as part of my studies of pedagogy and a couple of books on somatic experiencing as part of studying trauma. I found this book reasuringly grounded in the everyday and particularly helpful.

Practical strategies to move forward

As a disorganised attachment style I found this book very helpful, rather than focusing on just finding someone with a secure attachment, it provided practical strategies of how to enhance secure within yourself and through relationships.

The missing piece

Everyone should know this. Incredibly invaluable for those wanting high quality relationships. I've learnt so much about relationships over the years, but a recent breakup, which I found very traumatising, lead me to seek this out. I'm so much better informed now and very hopeful and reassured.
