Amir Levine – författare

We already rely on science to tell us what to eat, when to exercise, and how long to sleep. Why not use science to help us improve our relationships? In this revolutionary book, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Amir Levine and Rachel Heller scientifically explain why why some people seem to navigate relationships effortlessly, while others struggle. Discover how an understanding of adult attachment-the most advanced relationship science in existence today-can help us find and sustain love. Pioneered by psychologist John Bowlby in the 1950s, the field of attachment posits that each of us behaves in relationships in one of three distinct ways: Anxious people are often preoccupied with their relationships and tend to worry about their partner's ability to love them back Avoidant people equate intimacy with a loss of independence and constantly try to minimize closeness. Secure people feel comfortable with intimacy and are usually warm and loving. Attached guides readers in determining what attachment style they and their mate (or potential mate) follow, offering a road map for building stronger, more fulfilling connections with the people they love.

"Relationsboken vars popularitet aldrig tycks sina." - New York Times

Vi förlitar oss redan på vetenskapen när det gäller hur vi ska äta, träna och sova. Varför inte låta vetenskapen hjälpa oss att förbättra våra relationer? I den här banbrytande boken avslöjar psykiatern och hjärnforskaren Amir Levine och psykologen Rachel Heller hur anknytningsteorin kan hjälpa oss att hitta och behålla kärlek.

De ger också läsaren råd om hur man ska navigera i sina relationer på ett klokare sätt beroende på vilken anknytningsstil man har och ger en insiktsfull titt på vetenskapen bakom kärlek.

- Människor med ängslig anknytningsstil tänker ofta intensivt på sina relationer och är oroliga för om deras partner kan återgälda deras kärlek.

- Människor med undvikande anknytningsstil likställer förtrolighet med förlust av oberoende och försöker ständigt minimera närheten.

- Människor med trygg anknytningsstil känner sig bekväma med närhet och är vanligtvis varma och kärleksfulla.

Med fascinerande psykologisk insikt, frågeformulär och fallstudier hjälper Levine och Heller dig att förstå de tre anknytningsstilarna, identifiera din egen stil och känna igen andra människors anknytningsstil så att du kan hitta en partner som passar dig eller förbättra ditt nuvarande förhållande. Det här är boken du ska läsa om du vill skapa starkare, mer givande relationer med andra.

Years after first introducing attachment styles to the general public and forever revolutionizing our understanding of human connection, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Amir Levine returns with a brilliant, paradigm-shifting work on the science and practice of secure attachment. As Dr. Levine explains in Secure, people with a secure attachment style are the most comfortable not just in their relationships, but also in their own skins. And remarkably, the latest research shows that anyone, regardless of how insecure they may feel, can learn to create a secure life. The benefits of living in “secure mode” are extraordinary: people tend to be healthier and have a better relationship with their health care providers. When they do have a difficult illness, they have fewer symptoms and handle it better emotionally. If they’re looking for a job, they’re more effective in their search and their self-esteem doesn’t suffer as much. They are less susceptible to consumerism. They even navigate social media better and experience fewer of its negative impacts. In Secure, Dr. Levine presents his pioneering approach, Secure Therapy and Coaching, offering practical, neuroscience-backed tools to help readers cultivate security so that they can thrive. Secure is the definitive guide for anyone looking to improve their emotional health, deepen their connections, and build more fulfilling lives.
