Together we explore how an understanding of neuroscience can inform us to get smarter in relationships particularly in terms of the stories we tell ourselves.
We explore:
-how attachment experiences in childhood shape adult relationships
-how attunement and reciprocity as key factors in attachment
-the characteristics of anxious, avoidant, and disorganized attachment styles, highlighting how early experiences shape these patterns
-how maintaining curiosity has a real benefit especially in relationships
-the potential dangers of overconfidence in one's thinking.
-the importance of self-awareness and metacognition in understanding and improving self-esteem
-the functions of three brain networks: the Executive Network, the Default Mode Network and Salience Network
-and finally Diane gives us tips on how to manage negative thought patterns
