Understanding your Attachment Style with Somatic Practices

“Decode Your Attachment Style” Program

Commencing Thursday Oct 10  –  Nov 7 2024

Improve Your Relationships with Children & Loved Ones:

  • 30 Minute Online training/teaching with Dr Alex Howard
  • Group work with discussion and break out rooms
  • Somatic exercises and tools to regulate the nervous system
 

Are your intimate or close connections with your children or partner:

  • Chaotic?
  • Distant?
  • Strained?

Do you struggle with:

  • Communicating your needs?
  • Understanding your partner’s or children’s needs?
  • Feeling close or dealing with tension?

Does it feel like you:

  • Are walking on eggshells to keep the peace?
  • Get triggered when your kids disengage or show anxiety?
  • Can only feel okay when everything around you is okay?

If this sounds familiar, it might be time to explore the underlying dynamics. By understanding yourself and your attachment style, you can gain valuable tools to become more grounded, especially during times of tension and anxiety.

 

Introducing the “Decode Your Attachment Style” Program

 

Thanks to Dr. Alex Howard, I am thrilled to bring his “Decode Your Attachment Style” program to the Teaching Kids For Life community.

 

You will Discover:

  • The four most common attachment styles
  • How your predominant attachment style affects your relationships with yourself, others, and your kids
  • The link between attachment and your nervous system regulation
  • Somatic exercises to help ground and support your nervous system

Benefits of the Program

  • More calm, less chaos in your relationships
  • Tools to regulate your nervous system and feel supported
  • Moving away from anxiety and self-judgment, and embracing curiosity, care, and compassion
  • Taking positive steps to communicate and meet your own needs
  • Empowering yourself instead of waiting to be “rescued”
  • Setting healthy boundaries with love and wisdom for yourself, your children, and others

This program is designed to help you become more confident, grounded, and authentic, bringing more fun, joy, and connection into your relationships. Let’s work together to support your emotional well-being and strengthen your family bonds.

 

  • Do you struggle with argumentative, whining kids or disrespectful teens?

  • How would you like to de-escalate the tension with one line?

  • Are you exhausted and frustrated with getting the kids to bed at night?

  • Would you like to enjoy your ‘me time’ earlier in the evening feeling more relaxed?

  • Do you feel like a slave or doormat with your children/young adult?

  • How would you like to have a reasonable discussion with your teenager about chores, technology, drugs, vaping or alcohol?

  • How would you like to have conversations with your teenager without yelling, avoidance and disrespect?

– We cannot control our kids choices but we can powerfully control ourselves, and allow our kids to learn from their mistakes.

– We are able to facilitate our childrens’ ability to make powerful – choices to act responsibly and develop resilience.

– Empathy opens the heart and mind to learn while anger and frustration builds a wall of defense.

– When we solve all of our children’s problems, they become anxious, agitated and defensive. When we guide them toward solving their own problems, they become resilient, confident and responsible.
