Our Ghosts of Attachment

Amy Morrison • September 8, 2025

"In every  nursery there are ghosts. They are the visitors of the unremembered past of the parents." (Ghosts in the Nursery)

In my latest program course, Attachment 101: Patterns of Attachment, I explain the basic premise of attachment; how it's an evolutionary drive that is shaped by the child's primary caregiver. I borrow the phrase "ghosts in the nursery" from a 50-year old research paper that demonstrated the astonishing and lingering effects that early relationships have on our future lives. Whether you're a new parent, or a seasoned one, this program has takeaways designed to encourage you to see your "ghosts" as helping you rather than haunting you.
