Commonly asked questions

The theory of emotional attunement emphasizes the importance of being in sync with another person's emotional state, facilitating deeper understanding and connection. It is foundational in therapeutic settings to enhance empathy and effective communication.

To become emotionally attuned, practice active listening, observe non-verbal cues, and regularly engage in exercises that improve empathy and awareness, such as mindfulness and reflective journaling.

Lack of attunement refers to disconnection or misalignment between individuals, where one is unable to recognize or respond appropriately to the other's emotional needs or states. This can lead to misunderstandings and strained relationships.
