The Adult Attachment Program
The Adult Attachment Program
Zack Bein
How do we use evidence-based findings in the field of adult attachment to our benefit? Once we become aware of our attachment style, then what do we do? Can they change? Am I going to be this way forever? How do I connect with another human in a vulnerable way without feeling unsafe? How do I convince myself that my needs are just as important as everyone else's? Why is it so hard to live in alignment with my own most important values? Am I always going to feel alone? Secure attachment is just a myth, isn't it? How can anyone feel safe and secure in the world today? Good questions.

Dealing with Difficult Mind States
One of the largest tasks in spiritual life is to pursue and cultivate equanimity, moment by moment.  The ultimate equanimity says, "If nothing changes for the rest of my life, this will be fine."  Of course, dealing with the traffic and the people and the busy busy, this concept is far and away from us.  But it's a noble goal.
