    Amir Levine, MD, coauthor of the groundbreaking, multimillion-copy bestseller Attached, presents a bold new promise—that anyone can learn to create a secure life—and offers cutting-edge tools to make it a reality.

    Years after first introducing attachment styles to the general public and forever revolutionizing our understanding of human connection, psychiatrist and neuroscientist Dr. Amir Levine returns with a brilliant, paradigm-shifting work on the science and practice of secure attachment. As Dr. Levine explains in Secure, people with a secure attachment style are the most comfortable not just in their relationships, but also in their own skins. And remarkably, the latest research shows that anyone, regardless of how insecure they may feel, can learn to create a secure life.

    The benefits of living in “secure mode” are extraordinary: people tend to be healthier and have a better relationship with their health care providers. When they do have a difficult illness, they have fewer symptoms and handle it better emotionally. If they’re looking for a job, they’re more effective in their search and their self-esteem doesn’t suffer as much. They are less susceptible to consumerism. They even navigate social media better and experience fewer of its negative impacts.

    In Secure, Dr. Levine presents his pioneering approach, Secure Therapy and Coaching, offering practical, neuroscience-backed tools to help readers cultivate security so that they can thrive. Secure is the definitive guide for anyone looking to improve their emotional health, deepen their connections, and build more fulfilling lives.
    "Amir Levine brings a psychiatrist's empathy and a researcher's precision to the question of what makes us feel safe in the world. Secure offers a profound new model for creating real, lasting security in our patients and in ourselves, along with the practical tools to make that happen."—Lori Gottlieb, author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone

    "Beautifully written, scientifically rigorous, and quite revolutionary, Secure will challenge what you think you know about attachment, security, and how we grow. Amir Levine blends rich research with vivid stories and practical tools to show how small, everyday interactions can reshape our relationships at home, at work, and in our communities. The result is a rare kind of guide: humane, hopeful, and immediately useful for anyone who wants to show up better for the people who matter most."—Amy Edmondson, author of Right Kind of Wrong

    “In Secure, Amir Levine offers a groundbreaking roadmap to emotional resilience, rooted in brain science and his decades of research. Through personal stories, scientific insight, and actionable tools, Secure reveals how cultivating secure attachment can transform every aspect of life—from relationships and work to health and self-worth. Whether you’re anxious, avoidant, or somewhere in between, this book helps you to shift into 'secure mode' and thrive.”—Charles Duhigg, author of The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better

    “With science and compassion, Dr. Levine reveals the emotional grounding we need to live, work, and lead with resilience. Secure offers a vital roadmap to the inner strength that makes sustainable success possible."—Arianna Huffington, Founder & CEO, Thrive Global”—Arianna Huffington, Founder & CEO, Thrive Global
