Many of us deeply one love, and have been taught I fear it. This is an attachment style where we can go hot or cold. We can come on strong and seek security— they feel a strong desire to self isolate.

Attachment is wired into our biology, but it’s also fluid. Through healthy communication, awareness, and a partner who is willing to do the work we can all be more secure.

Do you notice this in yourself?

Behind every ‘you’re doing great’ is a mom silently wondering if she is. 🤰

Mothers are sort of like walking icebergs: a lot more lurks under the surface than can be seen in public. Freud may have looked at the child, but what about the mother’s mind?

Unresponsive brain-injury patients have long been at the center of an ethical debate: If they can be kept alive, should they be? At what cost? Who’s to decide?

A new study shows that some of these patients may be far more conscious than was once thought. Sarah Zhang reports: https://theatln.tc/xxbjNF7X
