Are you familiar with attachment styles? They are

Are you familiar with attachment styles? They are a set of patterns that describe how individuals relate to others in close relationships, especially romantic ones. ⁠
⁠
Let's dive into each of these styles:⁠
⁠
1. Secure attachment: People with secure attachment styles feel comfortable with intimacy and are able to express their emotions openly. They trust their partners and feel confident that their needs will be met.⁠
⁠
2. Anxious-preoccupied attachment: People with anxious-preoccupied attachment worry about rejection and abandonment and may become clingy or overly dependent on their partners.⁠
⁠
3. Dismissive-avoidant attachment: People with dismissive-avoidant attachment styles value independence and self-sufficiency and may downplay the importance of relationships. They often avoid emotional intimacy and may appear distant or uninterested in their partners.⁠
⁠
4. Fearful-avoidant attachment: People with fearful-avoidant attachment crave intimacy but are afraid of getting hurt or rejected. They may send mixed signals to their partners, wanting closeness one moment but then pushing them away the next.⁠
⁠
Understanding your attachment style and that of your partner can help you build stronger, healthier relationships.

If you’re expecting, chances are you’ve purchased more baby items than you knew existed, you’ve attended doctor appointments, made lifestyle changes, and have talked to your partner for countless hours about baby names, accessories, parenting, and more. Baby has been your #1 priority, right? ⁠
⁠
At any point along this journey, have you stopped to consider how you will care for yourself (and your partner) post-baby, not physically but emotionally?⁠

Perinatal therapist, Courtney Daniels, shares 5 not-so-obvious must-haves for your emotional well-being in her post ‘5 Must Haves for Emotional Well-Being Post Baby’. #linkinbio

Stressed out and anxious? Take a deep breath! 🌬

Stressed out and anxious? Take a deep breath! 🌬️⁠
⁠
Intentional breathwork, which involves consciously controlling one's breathing patterns, has been shown to have several benefits for reducing symptoms of anxiety and stress. Here are some of the ways in which intentional breathwork can help:⁠
⁠
1. Calming the nervous system: When we are anxious or stressed, our sympathetic nervous system is activated, leading to increased heart rate, breathing rate, and muscle tension. ⁠
Breathwork can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which has a calming effect on the body and can reduce these symptoms.⁠
⁠
2. Increasing mindfulness: Breathwork involves paying attention to the breath and being present in the moment. This can increase mindfulness and reduce ruminative thinking, which is a common symptom of anxiety and stress.⁠
⁠
3. Enhancing relaxation: Deep, slow breathing can help relax the body and mind. It can also reduce the production of stress hormones, such as cortisol, and increase the production of feel-good hormones, such as serotonin and dopamine.⁠
⁠
4. Improving oxygenation: Breathwork can increase oxygenation of the blood and brain, which can improve cognitive function, reduce fatigue, and increase feelings of alertness and energy.⁠
⁠
5. Reducing physical tension: Breathwork can help reduce muscle tension, which is often associated with stress and anxiety.⁠

Our therapist, Leigh Fisher, shares more about the benefits of breathwork as well as 6 different breathwork techniques in her blog ‘Intentional Breathwork’. #linkinbio
