The Ways We Deal with Stress in an Attachment Framework
Listen now
Description
When we're stressed we usually turn the volume up on our emotions or turn the volume down on our emotions -- and then in relationships, we fight over the volume knob. In this episode, we discuss attachment styles and strategies to deal with stress, and how it impacts interactions in our relationships -- informed by Emotionally Focused Therapy, and the work of Sue Johnson. Hold Me Tight or Love Sense are great starting places for her work. We also asked the question: Does God want us to deny our emotions? God often urges us to not be afraid, worried or anxious throughout scripture. So does that means that we're doing something wrong if we feel one of those things?
