Episode 24: Attachment & Protection Behaviors: https://youtu.be/2LRwkwnkGJA

✨ Every behavior has a purpose.

Attachment drives us toward connection, while protection behaviors emerge when we feel unsafe. How can we recognize and respond to these dynamics with wisdom?

🧠 The Science of Attachment

🔄 Secure attachment promotes confidence, emotional regulation, and connection.
🧠 When attachment is disrupted, protective behaviors like withdrawal or aggression can arise.
🌍 The nervous system reacts to disconnection as a survival threat—understanding this can shift our responses.
🤝 Recognizing protection behaviors in ourselves and others fosters compassion and de-escalation.

🌬️ Breath as Reassurance

🌱 Inhale trust. Exhale fear.
🔄 Gentle, steady breaths signal safety to the body and mind.
💞 With each breath, soften into connection.

❤️ From Protection to Connection

🌊 When we meet protection behaviors with empathy, we invite healing.
🛤️ Offering safety, rather than judgment, fosters secure attachment.
🔗 Connection is the strongest form of protection.

💭 “Behind every behavior is a need. When we meet the need, we change the behavior.” — L.R. Knost
