“We do as we have been done by.” – John Bowlby
“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choice to become.” – Carl Jung
Have you ever wondered how our earliest relationships and the emotional regulation strategies we develop from them during our early life influences, informs, encodes, and unconsciously determines our adult lives and relationships. If so, then you’re interested in attachment, regulation, and how our early relationships are what structure our (un)consciousness.
In this course, we’ll review forms of attachment and regulation, and examine how attachment style and capacity for affect regulation effects adult life. We’ll also delineate the biological basis, that is the neuroscience, of attachment and regulation. Pragmatically, we’ll seek to apply and then reflect on the function of attachment and regulation within our everyday life. Participants who complete the course will gain a pragmatic understanding of attachment and regulation in their own lives and the lives of those they care about.
