The fear of disconnection requires the reconnection to repair to improve all relationships.
This video shows how disconnection can make the other person feel emotionally unsupported.
It can help couples who's relationship is in crisis or separating parents trying to create a successful coparenting relationship - they have both lost connection.
Whether they try to reconcile using this technique in the video to stay together or if they are attempting to co-parent they could reconnect (the person leaving) to help (the person being left) feel heard, understood and their feelings cared about.
This can be the difference between an adversarial separation vs parents helping each other adjust and transition to the new family structure.
