5 Stages Of Healing Anxious Attachment: A Somatic Approach

With Orit Krug

This is an advanced course for healing anxious attachment patterns. This course is for you if you’re already applying healthier relationship patterns, but need support to move through the final stages of embodying secure attachment. The 5 stages of healing anxious attachment include somatic (body/movement) practices to help you get through the hardest parts of finally breaking insecure patterns. If you can move through these last 5 stages, you can expand into a new level of security, freedom, and joy in yourself, which will inevitably spread to all of your relationships. This course includes bite-sized pieces of psycho-education on Anxious Attachment and movement-based meditations to help you integrate this knowledge into your body. That way, you can apply the course material directly to your behaviors in real-life relationships, and finally experience the deep, satisfying love you’ve been waiting to feel… without fear!

Lesson 1

Stage 1: Empowerment, Assertiveness, Confrontation

In today's lesson, we will review the first stage of healing anxious attachment. The first stage is all about empowerment, assertiveness, and confrontation. You know you've arrived at this first stage once you've decreased the intensity & amount of people-pleasing and "overgiving" in your relationships. You're more likely to speak up about your needs, rather than hide them due to fear of abandonment and rejection. In this lesson, I will guide you through a gentle movement-based meditation to help you embody this empowered state even deeper.

Lesson 2

Stage 2: Guilt, Anxiety, Self-Doubt

Today, we will learn about the 2nd stage to help you finally heal from anxious attachment. We will identify the intense feelings that tend to encompass your body during this stage, and I will guide you through a gentle movement-based meditation to help you build the capacity & confidence to move through these difficult emotions. Only once you can navigate the guilt, anxiety, and self-doubt that comes up in this stage, then you can move on to the next stages and finally embody a fuller healing of anxious attachment.

Lesson 3

Stage 3: Relief, Validation, Firmness

This 3rd stage of Relief, Validation, and Firmness often settles in after you’ve released the guilt, anxiety, and self-doubt from stage 2. This is a relatively pleasant stage to bask in. Indulging in the pleasurable feelings associated with this stage is a key factor in fully healing anxious attachment (not all healing needs to be heavy or painful!). In today's lesson, you'll learn how you can grow through this stage, and be guided through a movement-based meditation to embody this firmness in yourself so that you can move forward in feeling secure and confident in all of your relationships.

Lesson 4

Stage 4: Sadness, Grief, Fear

Stage 4 will likely feel like the most difficult stage of them all, but if you can be with & move through the emotions associated with this stage, then you will be SO close to healing your anxious attachment on a deeper level than ever before. In today’s lesson, we will identify how to know if you’ve reached this stage and healthy ways to navigate it. That way, you can get through the hardest part of healing anxious attachment and reap the rewards of experiencing love & relationships without being hijacked by anxiety, fear, or self-doubt.

Lesson 5

Stage 5: Trust, Love, Surrender

We have reached the final stage of healing anxious attachment: Trust, Love, and Surrender! Once you reach this stage, it feels incredibly freeing, like everything you’ve been working through is completely worth it. In today’s lesson, we’ll talk about the key identifiers in this stage, and I will guide you through one last powerful movement-based meditation to embody this state of being more deeply secure within yourself and your relationships.

Extremely helpful to physically act out the emotional experience of being securely attached, or of letting anxious attachment shed off of me. Loved this course, and will probably do it a few more times, as it’s just so helpful to understand how some of these powerful emotions feel in my body.

A great course that allowed me to take the much-needed step "out of my head and into my body". The key to truly becoming free from fearful attachment in relationships. I will continue to repeat the guided meditations with movement to actually live from the liberating feelings of trust, love and surrender. Thank you very much.
