Episode 15: Attachment Styles: Survival Strategies, Not Flaws

Ever feel like you're chasing love—or running from it? Your attachment style isn't a personality flaw; it's a survival strategy shaped by early experiences. In this episode of Beyond Survival: A Pathway to Peace, trauma-informed coach Naomi Stanchfield breaks down the 4 attachment styles (secure, anxious, avoidant, disorganized), how trauma amplifies them, and why the "4 S's of Security" (Safe, Seen, Soothed, Secure) matter.

Discover practical somatic tools like the 5-4-3-2-1 grounding method, pendulation, and boundary-setting movements—plus CBT techniques like cognitive restructuring and the XYZ communication formula—to rewire toward earned secure attachment. Learn how to shift from reactive survival to conscious connection in relationships.

If you're ready to understand your patterns and build inner safety, this episode is your gentle first step. These are educational tools, not therapy—reach out to a professional if needed.
