Dr. Amir Levine, co-author of the multimillion-copy
international bestseller Attached, presents a bold new promise:
anyone can learn to create a secure life, and he offers practical, cutting-edge
tools to achieve it.
Years after revolutionizing our understanding of attachment
styles, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Amir Levine returns with a
brilliant, paradigm-shifting work on the science of secure human connection. As
Dr. Levine explains in Secure, people with a secure attachment
style are the most comfortable not just in their relationships, but also in
their own skins. And remarkably, the latest research shows that anyone,
regardless of how insecure they may feel, can learn to create a secure life.
The benefits of living in “secure mode” are extraordinary:
people tend to be healthier and have a better relationship with healthcare
professionals. When they do have a difficult illness, they have fewer symptoms
and handle it better emotionally. If they’re looking for a job, they’re more
effective in their search and their self-esteem doesn’t suffer as much. They
are less susceptible to consumerism. They even navigate social media better and
experience fewer negative impacts.
In Secure, Dr. Levine presents his pioneering
approach, Secure Therapy and Coaching, offering practical, neuroscience-backed
tools to help readers cultivate security so that they can thrive. Secure is
the definitive guide for anyone looking to improve their emotional health,
deepen their connections, and build more fulfilling lives.
