Exploring Attachment and Boundaries in Nova Scotia

On September 27th, 2025, a group of practitioners in the Annapolis Valley region of Nova Scotia, Canada came together for a bioenergetics workshop focused on a central question: How do we maintain connection with others while staying true to ourselves?

What We Explored

Attachment Style and Personal Boundaries

We discussed and explored how attachment style defines the way we set personal boundaries with anyone in our lives. Participants had body-based experiences regarding these aspects of our unique personalities.

Developing Secure Attachment to Self

Participants learned how to work towards developing a secure attachment to their inner child—to themselves. This foundation enables us to respond to life from a grounded, assertive place instead of reacting in a destructive manner.

About the Workshop

This workshop was co-led by:

  • Adela Gorodzinsky, RP, CCC, CBT
  • Dr. Leslie A. Costello, CBT
