Attachment vs Authenticity

Updated: Dec 10, 2019

What if by being authentic, I lose the people I am attached to?


Dr. Gabor Maté is a Canadian phyiscian and one of my favorite authors. He has written extensively about childhood development, trauma and addiction. In this video he talks about the need for attachment and authenticity, specifically when they are in contradiction to one another.

The mind cannot hold two conflicting beliefs and when confronted between authenticity and attachment, attachment trumps authenticity. Hence the reason why many of us find ourselves in adulthood trapped into beliefs formed very early on, beliefs that are now detrimental to our hapiness and self-realisation.


This is where Hypnotherapy and RTT can help.
