Not being controlled was more important to Roger than being loving to himself and others
Ever wondered why your relationships seem to follow the same frustrating patterns? In this episode of Inner Bonding, Dr. Margaret Paul dives into the world of attachment styles and their profound impact on our relationships. She explores the two most common problematic attachment styles: anxious and avoidant. These styles often stem from childhood experiences and can sabotage our adult relationships if left unaddressed. Dr.
Paul explains how fears of rejection and engulfment are at the core of these attachment styles, leading us to either cling to or push away our partners in an attempt to protect ourselves. Dr. Paul shares compelling stories of clients like Roger, who struggled with an avoidant attachment style due to a controlling mother, and Jim, who had an anxious attachment style rooted in his fear of rejection.
Through their journeys, we learn how practising Inner Bonding can help heal these deep-seated fears and create healthier, more secure relationships. You'll gain valuable insights into recognising your own attachment style and learn practical steps to begin healing. Dr. Paul emphasises the importance of developing a loving adult self who can manage fears without resorting to controlling behaviours. By taking responsibility for your own feelings and behaviours, you can break free from destructive patterns and build stronger, more loving connections.
If you're tired of feeling stuck in unhealthy relationship dynamics, this episode offers hope and practical guidance. Tune in to understand your attachment style better and start your journey towards healing and more fulfilling relationships.
