We are built to love.

Every part of our physiology and psychology is designed to attach with others and share our lives in deep and meaningful ways. As social animals we need people, this is simply our biology. But in modern life, so much has got in the way of building healthy attachments.

When it comes to our intimate relationships, we are increasingly acting from a place of fear. We're scared we will choose the wrong person, or the person we are with doesn't love us enough. We're scared to get close. We're scared to be on our own. We're scared the one we love is pulling away. We are not securely attached.

We have all been profoundly impacted by our experiences from childhood and previous relationships, and our need to protect ourselves can become greater than our need to love. When we love, or try to be loved, our history permeates our present in the most all-consuming and powerful ways. This book will offer tools and strategies for creating positive, secure attachments and help us create the fulfilling and nourishing relationships we need.

Great tool for those on a healing journey

This is a great book to have if you are working towards healing your attachment trauma, or maybe just living with someone who is. The first part of the book discusses the different types of insecure attachment styles, how they manifest in our lives, and the issues they cause in our relationships, and the information is spot-on. I saw myself and my past relationships in so many parts of this book. The second part of the book discusses developing healthy relationship skills to improve the quality of your relationships and stop letting defeating/sabotaging behavior continue to repeat itself. The author's narration is excellent. Highly recommend!
