How to form a bond

5/21/2011

There are six ways to form a close bond with anyone.  From the book, Hold Onto Your Kids, Gordon Neufeld's Six stages of attachment:

Proximity- Spend time together focused on each other
Sameness- If you only have one thing in common that you enjoy, share in it together and make it special.  Celebrate sameness. 
Belonging/Loyalty-  Always stick up for each other
Significance-  Show each other how important you are to each other
Love-  Express your love often
Being Known- Get to know and respect their likes and dislikes 

Each of these offers a variety of ways to fortify attachment and form close bonds.

When I have focused on the six stages of attachment, I feel closer to my friends and family.   

Thanks for stopping by!

Love,
Alison

    ( June 1997 I became an RN) Graduation ceremony in Aug 2012 when I completed my bachelor degree in general studies with an emphasis in psychology

    About me:

    I am a lucky wife,
    blessed to be a 

    sahm mom, 
    a good friend to a few, 
    a not-employed-by-our-choice RN

    I love natural healing,
    peaceful parenting, pure beauty in life,
    and simplicity through minimalism

    I blog randomly on random topics.
    I blog to remember my family just the way we are today.
    I blog to speak my mind.  

    I am not trying to impress you; whatever I do is just average anyway.  That's ok, I am happy with being average.  You might be average like me.

    I won't beg you to read my blog.
    I won't annoy you with pop up adds.
    I won't be offended if you repost my content in any way.  I will be proud that you liked it enough to use it.

    I won't apologize for my opinions.  
    I would love to hear your friendly opinions.  

    Questions?  I love to discuss anything.
