In this week's episode of the Needy No More podcast, I dive deep into the final two steps of the cycle of anxious attachment, stress and addiction, answering the following questions:
- What is stress and how does it relate to addiction?
- What is love addiction?
- How does stress factor into the experience of anxious attachment?
- How does stress relate to safety and why is that important?
- What is cortisol and what are some ways you can reduce your cortisol levels and lower stress?
- How does cortisol relate to adrenaline?
- How can you interrupt the cycle of addiction?
