What is Attachment and Why Does it Matter?

Attachment refers to the deep emotional bonds formed between a child and their caregivers, which influence how we relate to others throughout life. From an early age, humans are biologically wired to form these bonds for survival, and the quality of these attachments shapes our emotional experiences, behaviors, and relationships.

The Roots of Attachment
Attachment theory, developed by therapist John Bowlby, explains that babies are born with a natural drive to connect to caregivers to ensure their survival. When caregivers respond consistently and compassionately to their needs, children feel safe and secure, creating a foundation for exploration and growth.

However, when this bond is disrupted—whether due to neglect, trauma, or inconsistent caregiving—the child may develop unhealthy attachment patterns that can carry into adulthood. These early relational experiences form a "blueprint" for how we connect with others, often influencing our relationships unconsciously.

Attachment and Adult Relationships
In adulthood, these attachment patterns affect how we handle intimacy, trust, and communication in relationships. From avoiding intimacy altogether to anxiously seeking reassurance, our attachment styles can create challenges and misunderstandings. Fortunately, attachment is not fixed. With awareness and healing, it’s possible to rewrite this blueprint and create healthier, more fulfilling relationships.

The Four Attachment Styles: How They Show Up in Adulthood

Understanding your attachment style is crucial to healing and growth. Here's a quick overview of the four main attachment styles and how they may appear in adulthood:

1. Secure Attachment

• Trusting, compassionate, and open to intimacy.

• Seeks and provides emotional support and healthy connection.

2. Avoidant Attachment

• May avoid closeness, struggle with emotional intimacy, or fear vulnerability.

• Tends to keep a distance in relationships, often feeling uncomfortable with dependence.

3. Ambivalent (Preoccupied) Attachment

• Longing for intimacy but often anxious that others won't meet their needs.

• May exhibit clingy or needy behavior and fear rejection or abandonment.

4. Disorganized (Unresolved Trauma) Attachment

• Often rooted in past trauma, this style may create confusion and distrust in relationships.

• May have a deep fear of getting hurt and struggle to feel worthy of love and care.

This retreat will help you understand these patterns and learn tools to heal and transform them.

Healing, Growth, and Connection

The Hope of Healing
The good news is that we are all capable of healing our attachment wounds. Neuroscience shows that the brain is naturally plastic, meaning it can change and adapt throughout life. Through the right support, guidance, and practices, you can move towards a more secure attachment style and experience greater intimacy, trust, and joy in your relationships.

Why Now?
Trauma, relational wounds, and early attachment injuries may have shaped your life, but they do not have to define your future. This retreat provides an opportunity to start a journey toward healing—one that empowers you to build stronger, more authentic relationships with yourself and those you care about.

What You Will Learn and Experience at the Retreat

This retreat is designed to help you explore your attachment style, heal relational wounds, and build stronger, more secure connections with yourself and others. Through a combination of group work and guided practices, we will work to release the impact of early trauma, build resilience, and help you feel more grounded in your relationships.

During the Retreat, you will:

• Understand Your Attachment Style: Gain insights into your own attachment patterns and how they affect your relationships.

• Heal Childhood Wounds: Through corrective experiences and somatic practices, you will address childhood wounds and restore safety and trust.

• Transform Relationship Patterns: Learn new ways of relating to yourself and others, breaking free from unhealthy cycles.

• Strengthen Emotional Resilience: Develop greater capacity for emotional regulation, joy, and fulfillment in your relationships.

• Build Connection: Learn how to communicate more effectively and empathically, leading to deeper, more authentic connections.

• Heal Family Patterns: Recognize how trauma and resilience can be passed down through generations and learn to shift those patterns.

Our Healing Approach: DARe and Somatic Practices

Throughout the retreat, you will be guided in Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Experience (DARe) & Somatic Experiencing (SE), two powerful, evidence-based approaches that promote healing from attachment injuries. Dr. Diane Poole Heller, a leading expert in attachment healing, and her team of practitioners will support your transformation through:

• Somatic Experiencing® (SE™): A body-focused approach that helps release trauma stored in the nervous system.

• DARe (Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Experience): A method for healing attachment wounds through safe, corrective relational experiences.

• Small Group Sessions: Personalized support to help you integrate and heal your attachment patterns.

Sexual Sovereignty

Sexual Sovereignty is not just about individual freedom; it’s about cultivating a deep and respectful relationship with our own sexuality in a way that honors our bodies, desires, and boundaries. It is an invitation to step into an embodied, attuned connection with ourselves—one that embraces presence, consent, and the art of titration, allowing for healing, transformation, and the unlearning of inherited narratives that may have shaped our relationship with sexuality and our bodies. Through sensory immersion and deepening awareness, we reconnect with our innate wisdom and our bodies’ intelligence, awakening to the richness of sensation and self-trust. In a supportive and judgment-free space, we move beyond shame and cultural conditioning, reclaiming our wholeness. In doing so, we create a more fulfilling, nourishing, and inspiring intimate life rooted in self-trust, inclusivity, relational presence, and mutual respect.

During this retreat, nestled in the breathtaking beauty of Costa Rica, you will explore:

• Self-regulation & safety in the body

• Recognizing and honoring your body's yes, no, and maybe

• Consent & boundaries

• Presence & attunement

• Trust & thriving

• Solo attunement & enlivenment

• Healthy, playful partner dynamics

Dr. Saida, a TEDx speaker and researcher, specializes in PsychoSexuality and the erotic individuation process, integrating somatic awareness and neurobiological re-patterning. Aaron, author of Optimal Sex Life, is a globally recognized coach in sexual health and intimacy, known for his science-backed methods to enhance pleasure, resolve dysfunction, and optimize sexual well-being.

Joining them is Barbara Collier, a seasoned trauma recovery expert with over 30 years of experience in somatic psychotherapy, nursing, and embodied psychosexual healing. A certified Somatic Experiencing® and Embodied Psychosexual Practitioner, Barbara specializes in addressing developmental, intergenerational, and sexual trauma.
