About this listen

Break free from the chains of avoidant-dismissive attachment and heal emotional distance!

Are you yearning to connect with others in a meaningful way, yet constantly stumble upon a wall of emotional detachment you can't seem to overcome?

If this strikes a chord, guess what? You are far from alone. Individuals with an avoidant-dismissive attachment style or those grappling with intimacy frequently grapple with these doubts. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Often, individuals with an avoidant-dismissive attachment style feel misunderstood or isolated. Reaching out to others might seem like a monumental task strewn with fear and uncertainty. But the reality is that you are not broken, and you are not alone. And the profound transformation you seek is within your grasp.

This book will teach you how to break the cycle of short-term relationships and defeat the fear of intimacy. Strike a balance between personal independence and deep emotional connection. Meld these seemingly paradoxical desires to Pave the way for healthier, fulfilling relationships.

You might question the effectiveness of a book in addressing such a deeply ingrained issue. You may worry that focusing on your avoidant style might do more harm than good, or you may be less confident about whether the proposed exercises would apply to your unique situation. Your doubts are understandable. But believe this: Recovery is possible, and it begins with one step.

Your dismissive-avoidant attachment style isn't a life sentence of emotional isolation. Through a fundamental shift in understanding and an arsenal of proven strategies, you can journey towards satisfying, emotionally enriching connections.

Broken bonds can be reformed, emotional scars can heal, and a fulfilling, emotionally secure life is within your reach.

If you're ready to break the emotional barricade, foster deeper connections with your loved ones, and explore the new beginnings that secure attachment promises, then don't wait.

I have been around many people in my life with attachment and intimacy issues. You often find that you wonder what you are doing wrong but this is often a deep underlying issue within them that they are fighting. Chapters in this audiobook like ‘The Power of Self-Awareness and ‘Recognising Avoidant Tendencies’ are extremely interesting and open the door to changing behaviour patterns. The later chapters on Deepening Emotional Intimacy and Sustaining Growth and Connection really get to the core of changing these patterns and embracing new and healthier emotional connections. If you struggle with these issues then A.J. Brooks’ book is just what you need to help you on your journey to a far more fulfilling life.

This is all about making meaningful changes using foundational work using the needs you require. It's not completely about relationships but how you choose to connect with others and all the emotions that life brings. I like how the author goes into what we feel, our thoughts, our emotions, what we fear... I'm not one to be afraid/or admit, but we sometimes may avoid challenges. I understand there's plenty of people who live life skimming the surface and don't desire to dive into anything. We may take on all this personal independence that we tell ourselves we don't need to be closer to those around us. These practices using positive steps for change allow us to have a new story for our future and we can engage with the life we have avoided.
People may get defensive as they are protective, but the advice detailed will help out partners, or even personal setbacks. Those underlining expectations, challenging moments, surprises, allows you to express yourself with words with directions of how to be heard and respected. Each partner can feel part of their own relationship giving both growth and a better mindset. You'll learn how to watch out for your, and your partners triggers, as its not about battling against each other but creating that bond you wanted to have. You will learn how to get a positive discovery of your new goals and be ready for your ambitions and shared purpose. I really liked the narrator, she was like listening to a wonderful counselor. I highly recommend this audio, pretty cool.

Great audio to healing, better relationships
