In this episode of The Leading Edge podcast, EFT trainers Ryan Rana and James Hawkins offer a metaphor for describing the three systems that drive romantic adult attachment bonds. The Red Hat is the emotional system, the Blue Hat is the caregiving system, and the Purple Hat is the sexual system. Ryan and James give vivid clinical examples, practical ways to weave the hat metaphor into your work with couples, common places couples and therapists get stuck, and how to help couples take vulnerable “Blue Hat” emotional risks to help bring them into more safety and connection.
