What you will get
-
One email per day for 24 weeks (168 days).
-
Each week focuses on a single attachment or detachment effect, moving from Proximity through Blind Detachment.
-
Every day brings a short, vivid post with reflection prompts and a tomorrow’s preview so you can anticipate the next insight.
Designed for Reflection, Not Rush
Whether you read each email over coffee, listen on your commute, or browse posts on LinkedIn, Facebook, or Instagram, you set the pace.
There’s no homework, only gentle questions and images to help you see how attachments—human and non-human—shape your choices.
Why Free?
Because understanding attachment is for everyone.
Our goal is to get the word out about Universal Attachment Theory—so that individuals, families, and communities can:
-
Notice the hidden ties that guide their lives.
-
Reflect before habits become blind attachments.
-
Make more conscious, life-giving choices.
Every email contains a teaser—a small mystery or visual clue—hinting at the next day’s topic. By the end, you’ll recognize a pattern of seven attachment effects and seven detachment effects, each quietly at work in daily life.

"I feel all ages would benefit from the seven secrets of attachment! I thought it provided great insight and examples of how we can potentially improve our daily experiences in what it means to be human"
Graham Bourke BA, MSW, Special Ed Teacher
"During this time of intense polarization that we now see everywhere, The Seven Secrets of Attachment helped me understand why people believe some of the crazy things they do. What caught me off guard, however, was the way Dr. Thomas gently challenged his readers to remove their own blinders to view the world differently
