Discovering Your Core Needs (+Somatic Practice)

Healing Anxious Attachment - Podcast autorstwa Johanna Adriaansen

One of the most powerful things you can do on your healing journey is get good at knowing and trusting what you need — not what you were told to need, not what you think you should need, but what your body and heart are truly craving.

This episode answers a question from a Becoming Secure Community Member who asked: “How do I even know what my core needs are? And once I do… how can I meet them on my own?”

Together, we explore:

  • Neediness versus Needs
  • When to meet your own needs and when to ask for your needs to be met
  • Discovering your deeper emotional or relational needs
  • How to reconnect to your needs through your body
  • Core needs in the realms of intimacy, sex, safety, self-expression, and relationships
  • The connection between your needs and your values

This episode also includes a somatic practice to help you tune in and feel your needs rather than just think about them. You’ll walk away with clarity, direction, and a deeper sense of connection to your inner world.
