Hello! I am Jafet Lillo, a clinical psychologist.
Thank you very much for your constant support, it's my way of
to return the love you give me <3
This booklet will provide you with a space for
self-knowledge <3, of course.. it doesn't replace a
psychotherapy, but for the little people who cannot
accessing therapy can help with a pimple of
arena.
First, let's understand the types of attachment:
SECURE ATTACHMENT
People with secure attachment have
a positive image of themselves and of
the others, and they have the ability to
establish interpersonal relationships
healthy and satisfying. They seek support
emotional and are capable of providing
emotional support to others.
ANXIOUS ATTACHMENT
people with anxious attachment have an
negative self-image but one
positive image of others. They tend to
constantly seeking validation and the
emotional support from others, and they can be
perceived how needed o
dependents. They often fear
rejection and the loss of the relationship.
AVOIDANT ATTACHMENT
People with avoidant attachment have a
positive self-image but an image
negative from others. They may seem
emotionally distant and rejecting support
emotional of others. They can have
difficulties in establishing intimate relationships
and committed due to their fear of being
vulnerable and dependent on others.
DISORGANIZED ATTACHMENT
Disorganized or disoriented attachment, which
characterized by behavioral patterns
contradictory and confusing in relationships
interpersonal. This type of attachment is associated
commonly with traumatic experiences in the
childhood, such as abuse or neglect by
the primary caregivers.
Regardless of whether you have a certain tendency,
you can have a different attachment style with
different people. Although it has not formed
a secure attachment with their attachment figures, yes it
you can develop with your best friends or with
your adult partner. That is why a
a person can have a secure attachment in their
relationship but not with his family, friends or
work colleagues.
REFLECTIVE PAUSE
If you take a moment to think a little
What was your inner child like?
Depending on the type of experiences and how they
we internalize, the inner child can be:
Or on the contrary, someone
a cheerful "little person"
fearful of life,
optimistic and sensitive.
angry and irritable.
At the bottom of every adult lies an eternal child,
in continuous training, never finished, which
requires care, attention, and education
constants. This is the part of the personality
a human that aspires to develop and to achieve
fullness.
C.G. Jung
IMPORTANT!
In our childhood, we formed an idea of
ourselves and of life from the
reactions of the adults around us. By
for this reason, many people have an idea of
themselves that do not belong to them, of the same
ways that do not belong to us many of the
rules that tell us how we should live. If
you have lived with people who felt
unfortunate, furious, scared or guilty,
so then..
What will your beliefs about yourself be?
And what about the world or others?
If we choose to believe that we are responsible for
our experiences, both the good and
from the supposedly bad ones, then we will have
the opportunity to overcome and leave behind the
effects of the past
GOODBYE LABELS
Note everything you don't like about yourself, the 'labels'
negatives with which you usually define yourself, or that have
positioned from abroad and with which you agree.
Now let's reflect...
Does this really define me?
Who told me this?
When have I done the opposite? (for example, if one of the
thoughts say "I am lazy" think about when you have been
active)
After the reflection, write those
labels on a separate paper, for
afterwards break and throw away.
So...
How would you like to define yourself instead of the one that
Does it currently appear on your list?
That is true....
A family pattern is a model of thought,
of emotion, of behavior that is generated at a level
ancestral and it is repeated from generation to generation
generation, generally in an unconscious manner.
A belief or an idea that the family lives by, that is
convince that it is true and that the replica
intensely for generations. An emotion
intense that occurs from some trauma or from
any extreme situation that leads us to develop
a complex emotional system. A behavior that
it keeps repeating.
Do I identify any?

He manages to not be free since, for him, "being

it is difficult to accept the unforeseen.
Wound of Injustice
He wants to appear lively and dynamic, even though he is exhausted.

he solved the problem by himself.
He is a great optimist who always wants to appear positive.
It is controlled to appear perfect and to correspond to the
ideal that has been set or that one believes others have of
he.
Do what is necessary to control your anger – that which you have

He may seem controlling with others but he is just being
defending why his own has been questioned
perfection
Although he wants everything to be perfect and fair, in
sometimes he is the first to exaggerate a fact or a
accusation.
The rigid one does not want to feel. Occasionally, it shows its
feelings because he/she does not know how to manage his/her great sensitivity.

EXERCISE
Find a picture of when you were a child (it ’s okay if you don ’t have it)
you find) and, looking at her and thinking about your childhood, respond to the
next questions:
What do you see in that child? What emotions do you see in him/her?
2. What gestures, words, actions, or attitudes marked you?
negatively about their environment?, how did they feel?, and how do you
Do you feel it now when you think about it?
3. How can you now address your child's needs?
interior from your adult self? What can you give and tell yourself?
same?
Letter to your inner child: At first, it may seem like an exercise
very easy to carry out, but it is an activity filled with emotion (with
all the sincerity in the world) and tell him everything you feel and with everyone
the possible details (you can include anecdotes, names of people
who were there with you supporting you, the absences, dates, days
special... everything that comes to you). Give that girl your affection and
understanding
SELF-ESTEEM
Self-esteem is the value that the individual attributes
to his person and to his abilities. It is a way
to think positively, a motivation to
to experience different perspectives of life,
to face challenges, to feel and act, which implies
that individuals accept, respect, trust, and
they believe in themselves.
SELF-CONCEPT
The self-concept is related to the degree to which
the beliefs about oneself are defined by
clearly and reliably, they are internally consistent and
they tend towards stability. An expert in this topic is
Pilar Saura; for her, the self-concept is built upon
interacting with others. The self-concept includes:
Ideas, images, and beliefs that we have about ourselves.
How do I look?
What do I think about myself? How do I believe I am?
Images that others have of us. How do they see me?
the others? What do the others think of me? How do they believe
What am I?
Images of how the person thinks it should be. How
me
Would you like to be?
Images that the person would like to have of themselves.
How would I like to see myself?
