Healing Avoidant Attachment: A Body-Based Healing Circle
Details
Many people think avoidant attachment means being “emotionally unavailable” or not wanting closeness.
In reality, avoidant attachment is often the body’s learned response to closeness feeling unsafe — not because of rejection, but because of early emotional distance, misattunement, or pressure to be independent.
This circle is a gentle, body-based exploration of avoidant attachment — not as a label or something to fix, but as a protective nervous system pattern that once made sense.
What to Expect
- A space to understand avoidant attachment through the body
- A nervous-system-informed exploration of how closeness shows up somatically
- An opportunity to bring curiosity, compassion, and awareness to your patterns
- Grounded, paced, and respectful of personal boundaries
What this Healing Circle is NOT
- Not therapy
- Not trauma processing
- Not about pushing past your edges
- Not about “fixing” attachment styles
This Meetup is designed as an introductory awareness space. Deeper somatic healing and longer practices is being offered on Eventbrite for those who feel drawn to continue healing the avoidant attachment style:
