Secure: The Revolutionary Guide to Creating a Secure Life - Hardcover

by Amir Levine (Author)

From Amir Levine, MD, coauthor of the multimillion-copy bestseller Attached What's the secret to finding success, happiness, and love? You need to feel SECURE.

Amir Levine, MD, coauthor of the multimillion-copy bestseller Attached, returns with a groundbreaking new insight from the latest research: your attachment style isn't fixed. It is relationship-specific: you can be secure with one person and anxious or avoidant with another. It isn't rooted only in your childhood relationship with your parents, and it can change throughout your life. Most of us, however insecure we feel, already have a kernel of security somewhere in our lives. The question is how to cultivate it.

Secure answers that question. Drawing on attachment research, neuroscience, and twenty years of clinical practice, Dr. Levine introduces Secure Priming Therapy and Coaching, a step-by-step approach to building security through everyday interactions with the right people. You'll learn to create an attachment map of all your relationships, uncover your kernels of security, and use simple, practical tools to become more secure with the people at work, in your life, and with yourself.

Secure is the definitive guide for anyone looking to improve their emotional health, deepen their connections, and build a more fulfilling life.
