INFJs and the Attachment Wound

Hey friends!! 

Today is a beautiful day over here in Northern California. I hope everyone is having a nice Sunday. I am watching the 2 become 1 video by the Spice Girls because someone just reminded me of it. Hah. 

Anyway, I am back again, to talk about INFJs and relationships. I am fully convinced that no one gets through this life without some sort of trauma. The problem for INFJs is that we also pick up on others energy, which gives us “energetic trauma” also, typically from childhood. 

This plays out in attachment styles because not only do we usually have insecure attachment styles, avoidant, anxious or disorganized, we also have the emotional response to the learned behavior from these attachment wounds. If you have ever felt like you were going to die because your partner left you or even just in an argument, you might be an INFJ with an anxious attachment wound. Anxious attachment wounds trigger the feeling side of the brain, while avoidant wounds trigger the rational side of the brain. 

The pattern ends up being that anxious attachment style clings too long when they should let go because feelings are running the show, and avoidant lets go too early because their rational minds convince them that the person isn’t right for them. If the wound is disorganized, you may feel confused by your own behavior. 

I’m working on some classes & a book for INFJs to help overcome the attachment style wound.
