Secure base concept

The Secure Base concept, introduced by psychologist John Bowlby, refers to the idea that a strong, reliable support system—often provided by a caregiver—allows individuals to explore the world confidently. When people feel safe and supported, they are more willing to take risks, learn new things, and form healthy relationships. This idea underscores the importance of trust and emotional security in personal development and well-being, as a "secure base" encourages exploration and resilience in facing life's challenges.
