From the Back; Attachment theory has entered the mainstream, but most discussions focus on how we can cultivate secure monogamous relationships. What if, like many people, you're striving for secure, happy attachments with more than one partner?

    Polyamorous psychotherapist Jessica Fern breaks new ground by extending attachment theory into the realm of consensual nonmonogamy. Using her nested model of attachment and trauma, she expands our understanding of how these emotional experiences influence our relationships. Then, she sets out six specific strategies to help you more toward secure attachments in your multiple relationships.

Personal Thoughts: Whether or not you're exploring polyamorous relationships, human beings are social people and tend to have some sort of relationship with more than one person. It's likely you have more than one friend, more than one relation, and more than one co-worker. Understanding what it means to be in a healthy relationship with another human being is important for the progress of society. polysecure was a fairly easy read and gave some very good insight as to how to exist in harmony with yourself and with others.
