🧠 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
This video explains anxious attachment using neuroscience research, Jungian depth psychology, and Zen philosophy. You'll understand:
Why your brain processes rejection like physical threat (amygdala hyperactivity)
What protest behavior is and why you do it (even when you know it pushes people away)
How your Shadow contains your disowned need (and why that controls you unconsciously)
The difference between Buddhist non-attachment and avoidant attachment
How to practice being with anxiety instead of acting on it
What integration actually looks like (not "cured" but conscious)
If you struggle with anxious attachment, fear of abandonment, protest behaviors, or relationship anxiety, this video is for you. You're not broken. You're traumatized. And trauma isn't a life sentence—it's information.
