Attachment Theory III: The Neuroscience of Attachment
Manage episode 438021740 series 3588182
We are back! In this episode, we talk about attachment theory from a neuroscientific and neurobiological perspective. We highlight how talking about our emotions can help us regulate them, and make room for empathy and "mentalizing" other people's experiences. We also discuss how attachment trauma can disrupt brain development, and how mindfulness and staying attuned to your body can mitigate this. Finally, we discuss the categorization of attachment experience in the DSM, and the importance of understanding the etiological basis of mental health conditions for effective treatment.
