Maté critiques societal norms that perpetuate stress, disconnection, and trauma, proposing that many health issues stem from these factors.Biblical Perspective:From a Christian viewpoint, normalcy is defined by God's purpose for humanity, as outlined in the Bible.Romans 12:2 emphasizes transforming one's mind to discern God's will, rather than conforming to worldly standards.Christianity offers a framework for understanding health and normalcy based on biblical principles and spiritual well-being.Five Main Themes of Maté's Book:Trauma and Its Impact:Cultural Toxicity:Mind-Body Connection:Healing and Recovery:Small t and Big T Trauma.Christian Counter Perspectives:Human Dignity:Role of Forgiveness:Ultimate Hope and Redemption:Community and the Church:Worldview and Authority:Conclusion:While Maté's insights into trauma and societal norms offer valuable perspectives, a Christian viewpoint emphasizes spiritual health, the reality of sin, and the transformative power of a relationship with God through Jesus Christ.  Maté's advocacy for psychedelics and engaging with spirits for healing is critically examined and refuted based on biblical principles of sobriety, self-control, dependence on God, and the sanctity of the body (Ephesians 5:18, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20).Closing Thoughts:Understanding trauma and societal issues from both secular and Christian perspectives can provide a comprehensive view of health and well-being. Embracing biblical principles offers a unique and holistic approach to healing, grounded in faith and community.Scripture References:Romans 12:2John 16:33Psalm 147:3James 5:14-161 Corinthians 12:12-27Galatians 6:2Hebrews 10:24-251 Peter 4:8Isaiah 53:5Revelation 21:4Ephesians 5:181 Corinthians 6:19-20Genesis 1:27Matthew 6:14-15Ephesians 4:32Colossians 2:8Ask Ralph - Christian FinancePractical Advice based in Christian Faith.

In honor of dry July, Karolina is debunking the most common myths and objections about going alcohol-free. What if everything you believed about "normal drinking" was a lie? Society puts "normal drinking" on a pedestal: the cultured person who enjoys just one glass of wine over a nice dinner. But is this achievable or even desirable?  It turns out that 60% of regular drinkers overdrink, and it's also been proven that 40% to 50% of our drinking is underreported. And drinking doesn't feel good - would you rather be someone who drinks normally and never gets the wake up call?

When you join Karolina's 22-day Dry Bootcamp, you'll learn how to relax and have fun without alcohol, build a sustainable, alcohol-free lifestyle, and discover your deeper why.

As we begin to better understand the immense impact that trauma and environment have on our psyche and body we need to develop new pathways to healing.  In today's episode, Niall is sharing a very exclusive discussion with world-renowned trauma expert and physician, Dr. Gabor Maté.

“The question is not why the addiction, but why the pain.” — Dr. Gabor Maté Dr. Gabor Maté is a physician, public speaker, and bestselling author whose work has been translated into 30+ languages. For 20 years, Dr. Maté worked as a family doctor and palliative care director. He then spent 12 years in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside with patients challenged by hardcore drug addiction, mental illness, and HIV, including in North America's first Supervised Injection Site. His award-winning book on addiction, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction, is used in universities globally. His most recent book, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture, is a New York Times bestseller and one of the best books I've ever read. In fact, if I could give one book to everyone on the planet to read, it would be this one. Dr. Maté is also an expert in childhood developmental issues, ADHD, mind/body health, trauma, and parenting — you're about to see why. In this episode: • Why the medical system is keeping us sick. • How schools are destroying our children's future – and what to do about it. • The role of trauma in bringing kindness and unity back to our society; and • How to prioritize healing and happiness in your daily routine. Let's WIN THE DAY with Dr. Gabor Maté! _

How do we deal with personal and societal trauma and pain in this moment of war, political polarization, increasing violence, domestic terror, and despair? Experts say we must look at the root causes of our pain, and yet the US is in the grip of a battle over exactly that — with efforts to ban books, censor news, cancel truth-tellers and hide history. How do we come together and overcome  what the US surgeon general says is loneliness on an “epidemic” scale, when our society and culture work to separate us and tell us to heal alone? Today's guests have experienced personal trauma and turned it into fuel for making social change. V, formerly known as Eve Ensler, is the co-founder of One Billion Rising and V-Day, the global movement to end violence against women and girls. Her latest book, “Reckoning”, is out in paperback this month. Dr. Gabor Maté, a Holocaust survivor, is a retired physician and author of several groundbreaking books on healing personal and collective pain. His latest, written with his son Daniel Maté is “The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture”. What are the things making people feel desperate, broken and afraid? And what can we do to help one another look at what feels unbearable with a view to changing it? All that, plus V lays out the plans for V Day on February 14, where this year's theme is Rise for Freedom, and a commentary from Laura on the power of feelings and the teachings of the late great queer author/activist Amber Hollibaugh.Guests:• Gabor Maté: Physician (retired), Public Speaker & Bestselling Author, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture• V (formerly Eve Ensler): Playwright, Activist, Author, Founder V-Day & One Billion Rising Full Episode Notes are located HERE.  They include related episodes, articles, and more. The following full uncut conversation is from our recent episode 'Looking at the Unbearable with Dr. Gabor Maté & V (formerly Eve Ensler).'

Emily is delighted to welcome back Gabor Maté, MD, the esteemed physician and author best known for his breakthrough analysis of addiction as a psychophysiological response to childhood trauma and emotional loss.  Gabor co-wrote his latest work, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture, alongside his son Daniel Maté. It became an instant New York Times bestseller, and the duo is already working on their next project, Hello Again: A Fresh Start for Parents and Their Adult Children. Emily and Gabor explore the pain behind addiction and the promise of wholeness. Gabor touches on addiction as an attempt to solve a problem of pain, cites the demands and technical diversions of our modern lives as catalysts of the current mental health crisis, and invites readers to embark on a journey of reconnection through compassionate self-examination. About Gabor Maté A renowned speaker and bestselling author, Dr. Gabor Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics, including addiction, stress, and childhood development. Rather than offering quick-fix solutions to these complex issues, Dr. Maté weaves together scientific research, case histories, and his own insights and experience to present a broad perspective that enlightens and empowers people to promote their own healing and that of those around them. After 20 years of family practice and palliative care experience, Dr. Maté worked for over a decade in Vancouver's Downtown East Side with patients challenged by drug addiction and mental illness.  His book on addiction - In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction - received the Hubert Evans Prize for literary non-fiction.

With mental health, we often create a separation between those that are “sick” and those that are “normal.” But I've found that the reality is we're all on a continuum of mental and emotional wellbeing at any given moment. Whether we develop challenges and imbalances and how well we do when we experience them is also largely dependent on our environemnt, made up of culture, socioeconomic factors, family dynamics, diet, and more.  I remember an incidence when I was volunteering as a nurse practitioner and nurse midwife at a refugee camp on the border of Rwanda and the DRC - the Congo - in Kisoro, Uganda. A woman walked in through the front doors into the waiting room and started getting into everyone's face telling them stories, asking questions, walking into exam rooms and picking up stethoscopes and interrupting exams… and then she went back out to the waiting room, popped a squat, and peed in the corner! it was clear she was having a psychotic episode. I was watching this wondering, wait, what's happening? And what are we supposed to do? Aren't we supposed to do something? Are we supposed to talk to someone, or call someone? But what I noticed was most people smiled and found her amusing. Some patients waiting twere a little annoyed, of course, but most engaged with her or just chuckled.  Someone cleaned up her pee. I spoke with my interpreter and she explained that she is a local villager who comes in every now and then and does that. She causes no harm and just stays for a few minutes but eventually leaves (and doesn't usually pee;). I thought, holy shit! If that was in the US, someone would have called the cops and she'd have been arrested and probaly experience a very stressful process of being handcuffed and dragged away and put into a jail and whatnot. Later, I heard Gabor Mate say that “the best place to have schizophrenia isn't North America with all its meds.  It's a village in Africa or India” where there's acceptance; where people make room for your quirks; where conneciton isn't broken but maintained, where one isn't not excluded or ostracized but wher you're welcomed, and  where there's room for you to act out or express what you need to.” Exactly. Disease isn't an isolated instance. It's a culturally constructed paradigm. Those of us who live in a materialistic society, in a culture that cuts us off from our spirituality and connection by ignoring emotional and social needs and idealizing individualism, materialism and consumerism and distancing from nature are set up for pathology. What we value in modern industrialized society isn't who people are, but what people produce or consume. Those who don't do either are pushed to the side and devalued, like our elders. In a healthier society where we aren't walking around in a myth of normal, people are more likely to make room for our differences; where we aren't excluded, but welcomed in. Symptoms of different diagnoses - depression, anxiety, etc. - can be present in all of us at certain times in different degrees. A continuum.  Often, there is too much focus on treating the symptoms rather than the underlying root causes. When we do this, we tend to worsen the illness over time because we're not addressing the root cause, which persists and causes more suffering. A lot of people receive these official diagnoses when sick enough to seek out help. But many of us live with these symptoms sans a diagnosis, day to day, some days worse than others.  But we don't need to receive an official diagnosis before starting to address some of the essential root causes. When we can own and see the common humanity of this suffering, we can stop saying, oh whew! I'm glad I don't have that disease. Or, wow sucks to be them. But rather, we can start to inquire why are so many us -if not all of us - feeling this way? When we can let go of the myth that there is some kind of “normal” that walks around unaffected by the dysfunctional in our society, there is less “othering” and more genuine compassion for others - and ourselves; there is less fear, knowing we're not isolated and alone in our experience. Now, the root causes of mental health issues are generally not rooted in biology. Sure - they're connected. But there is no gene or group of genes that if you have it, you'll for sure get a specific mental illness. The closest we have gotten to that is research that shows if you have a large group of amorphous genes, you may be more likely to develop a range of mental illnesses. However, this arguably proof of an increased sensitivity more than a tendency to have a specific mental illness. So, when we're looking at all the children in our communities with various diagnoses, perhaps they are more the canaries in the coal mine. When a canary dies in a coal mine, the miners didn't say, “Hey! The bird just died. Must be weak.” NO. They said, “Time to GTF out!” Why do we tend to see those with mental illness in our society as weaker somehow? Why can't we see it as an indicator of an unhealthy environment expressed by those with an exquisite sensitivity? Krishnamurti said, “It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” Exactly. I think we're in a society that has unnatural stressors and in a context where it is so challenging to learn how to manage them. Instead, we learn to repress our feelings. Gabor Mate said, “Biology is shaped by our social circumstances and psychological experiences.” So there's culture, socioeconomic systems, oppressive systems, multigenerational family history and intergenerational trauma… these are all part of the environment, and all of them impact the individual. And since we're all impacted by our environment, there is no “normal,” as we use traditionally use the term. There is no single person with no symptoms that are in the DSM-5 (which, BTW was initially created for statistical data collection and severe inpatient cases). The unhealthy societal conditions, the harmful thoughts and beliefs we hold within us, have to be addressed no matter what. We can also stop looking to shift our circumstances or history - because that can't change anyway - and instead shift how we relate to it. The story we tell. When we see it's not what happens to us, but what happens inside of us, then we have the power to heal. Knowing we have choices can help us make a shift. This means a change of our worldview is required, because that is what gets shifted with trauma and growing up in a toxic society. While medications can be life-saving, addressing the root cause of our chronic illnesses will require a lot of discomfort, because the solution isn't in keeping the treatment biological in a pill. It's in recognizing that the root cause is often in our environment and how we choose to relate to our life experiences. That means we are empowered and responsible for how we feel - and that can be scary AF. But it's worth it. You will learn:// Why there is no such thing as “normal”// How modern industrialized society influences pathology// What we can do to stop “othering” people (and ourselves) who have mental health challenges// Where mental health issues often stem from in the first place (hint: it's not all our biology!)// How psychedelics, meditation, and time in nature can help us change our worldview AND help us healResources:// Episode 50: When Someone You Love Has a Mental Illness // Episode 97: Psychedelics and Spiritual Practice // Learn more about “The Myth of Normal” in Gabor Mate's book // If you want to dive into this level of healing with a small group of self-identified womyn, having plant medicine retreats in Alaska and Hawaii, adventures in nature and learning more about your mind and your deeper Soul Purpose, visit AdventureMastermind.com to get on the waitlist to be the first to hear about the next dates and locations.

Encore Presentation of my Interview with Daniel Mate from November of 2022:  After reading his game-changing book "The Myth of Normal," it was such an honor to have Co-Writer Daniel Maté on the show to do a deep dive on trauma, sickness and health and the mind/body connection. Daniel and I chat about how in Western countries that pride themselves on their healthcare systems, chronic illness and general ill health are on the rise. Nearly 70 percent of Americans are on at least one prescription drug; more than half take two. In Canada, every fifth person has high blood pressure. In Europe, hypertension is diagnosed in more than 30 percent of the population. And everywhere, adolescent mental illness is on the rise. So what is really “normal” when it comes to health? This is one of my favorite conversations that I've ever had on the show.  It may just change how you look at western medicine. Daniel Maté is a composer, lyricist, and playwright for musical theatre based in BC and New York. He received the prestigious Edward Kleban Prize for Most Promising Lyricist in American Musical Theatre, a Jonathan Larson Foundation Grant, and the ASCAP Foundation's Cole Porter Award for Excellence in Music and Lyrics.  He has presented his work at the historic Kennedy Center in Washington, DC and New York's Lincoln Center, and was an invited participant in the inaugural Johnny Mercer Writers Colony. Outside of music and theatre, Daniel runs the world's only “mental chiropractic” service, Take A Walk With Daniel and he Co-Authored the brand new Internationally Bestselling book “The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture” with his father, Dr. Gabor Mate. Website: https://www.walkwithdaniel.com/https://www.danielmate.com/Instagram: @DanielbmateTwitter: @DanielbmateTo stay connected with Better Place Project and for updates and behind the scenes info, please follow us on social media:Website:https://www.betterplaceproject.org/ Instagram: @BetterPlaceProj To follow Steve on Instagram@SteveNorrisOfficialFacebook: Facebook.com/BetterPlaceProjectPodcastTwitter: @BetterPlaceProjEmail: BetterPlaceProjectPodcast@gmail.com

Gabor is a renowned physician and author who has dedicated his life to exploring the themes of health, normality, and mental health. With a background in medicine, Gabor challenges existing norms and values, advocating for a world in which our practices reflect the true needs of individuals and society. He has written a number of books, including his best-selling work The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture, in which he questions traditional ideas of what is normal and challenges readers to think critically about our assumptions. Modern society is rewarding us for unhealthy behavior and punishing us for healthy behavior, but how did this come to be, how is it affecting you and everyone you care about, and what steps can you take to protect yourself and your loved ones? What to Listen For Introduction – 0:00 What is the myth of normal? How has culture become toxic to the human condition? Why is being nice harmful to your mental health? Modern culture is destroying parent-child relationships – 15:37 How does modern culture erode a child's ability to form bonds with their parents and what can you do ensure you have a healthy relationship with your kids? Why do we feel the need to escape reality and pursue virtual relationships and virtual experiences? What is trauma? – 25:11  How do we misuse the word “trauma” and how does it lead us to ignore serious problems in our relationships? What can you do to heal your trauma so it stops harming you and your relationships? Can we use anger to heal? – 35:40 Why is anger important for self-respect and feeling good about yourself and what is the difference between unhealthy and healthy anger? What 5 steps can you take to overcome your limiting beliefs so you can unlock your potential and achieve your dreams? What does it mean to be “normal” in a society where normal behavior seems increasingly harmful to our health and relationships? All the time we spend inside, alone, and on devices is not doing us any favors. But how did this happen? What pushed humans to develop lifestyles that are making us unhappy and unhealthy? It starts with the parents and how we have structured our lives to promote relationships that don't serve us, discourage healthy expression of our emotions and boundary setting.  A Word From Our Sponsors Are you ready to take your career to the next level in 2023?

Parents are fully-grown adults capable of making choices and has had a range of experiences, while children are a non-thing coming into the world who didn't make the choice to be here. Secondly, children don't get to choose their parents and vice versa. Cosmically, karmically, it could be. However, children don't usually turn out as their parents expect, but parents also turn out differently than how kids “expect” them to be. Even though children don't have cognitive expectations, we are all born into the world as an expectation for a certain kind of environment: an unstressed, fully emotionally-attuned, emotionally available, and communitarian environment. Another unique thing is that the parent and child didn't only just procreate and create the other, but they conditioned each other. Third, there is a power and responsibility dynamic. Parents have every responsibility to keep their child alive and shield them from dangers, while children have none just as nature intended giving space for the child to grow into their own power in a loving home.Links and Resources:Official WebsiteWalk with Daniel: A Mental Chiropractic ServiceLet's Get Lyrical With Carice & DanielInstagram: @cariceanddanielgetlyricalDaniel's InstagramMeta-DescriptionMusical theatre composer-lyricist Daniel Mate talks about writing “The Myth of Normal” with his father Gabor Mate, modern-day parenting, and the different modalities of healing.Support the show

On this week's podcast, we are joined by Daniel Maté.  In addition to co-writing recent New York Times bestseller The Myth of Normal with his father, Dr. Gabor Maté, Daniel is a composer, lyricist, playwright, podcaster, artist, musician, and mental chiropractor - a current day renaissance man.   Hear about how Daniel relates to his father, his experience growing up with Maté privilege, and how he contextualizes the complexities of the parent-child relationship psychologically while providing us with insightful reframes that speak to how we relate to our parents as adults. A few quotes from the book we feel compelled to share with you in hopes of inspiring you to read/listen to the book: “Trauma, until we work it through, keeps us stuck in the past, robbing us of the present moment's riches, limiting who we can be.” “What joys have you denied yourself out of a belief that you don't deserve them, or out of a conditioned fear that they'll be snatched away?” “Whether we realize it or not, it is our woundedness, or how we cope with it, that dictates much of our behavior, shapes our social habits, and informs our ways of thinking about the world.” “Time after time it was the “nice” people, the ones who compulsively put other's expectations and needs ahead of their own and who repressed their so-called negative emotions, who showed up with chronic illness in my family practice, or who came under my care at the hospital palliative ward I directed.” “Chronic rage, by contrast, floods the system with stress hormones long past the allotted time. Over the long term, such a hormonal surplus, whatever may have instigated it, can make us anxious or depressed; suppress immunity; promote inflammation; narrow blood vessels, promoting vascular disease throughout the body;” “It doesn't matter whether we can point to other people who seem more traumatized than we are, for there is no comparing suffering. Nor is it appropriate to use our own trauma as a way of placing ourselves above others—“You haven't suffered like I have”—or as a cudgel to beat back others' legitimate grievances when we behave destructively. We each carry our wounds in our own way; there is neither sense nor value in gauging them against those of others.” “Like our other needs, meaning is an inherent expectation. Its denial has dire consequences. Far from a purely psychological need, our hormones and nervous systems clock its presence or absence. As a medical study in 2020 found, the "presence [of] and search for meaning in life are important for health and well-being." Simply put, the more meaningful you find your life, the better your measures of mental and physical health are likely to be.   Order The Myth of Normal:Trauma, Illness, & Healing in a Toxic Culture by Dr. Gabor Maté & Daniel Maté here.

We live in a traumatized world where everyone has some degree of pain and trauma to be addressed. In this episode, we explore Peter Levine's work around trauma and how it gets frozen in our nervous system through an immobility (or “freeze”) response. Recognizing this reality can change everything, as we discover our need to complete trauma responses by moving out of immobility and into our bodies, recovering anger as an expression of advocacy rather than aggression, and grief as a path to unfreezing. These are critical practices on the path to a flourishing life which helps change us and, ultimately, the world around us.

I am so unbelievably honoured to welcome Dr. Gabor. Maté and Daniel Maté to discuss their latest book, The Myth of Normal. Dr. Gabor Maté is a world renowned physician and trauma expert. He's written numerous bestselling books and changed the lives of millions. Through his pioneering work with addiction, mental health and trauma for over 30 years, his breakthrough work has helped shed light on the connections between physical and mental health and has influenced the way we think about and treat mental illness. Dr. Gabor's co-author is his son Daniel Maté, who was an acclaimed composer, lyricist and playwright amongst many other accomplishments.Together, they host workshops and help so many people. In this fantastically thought provoking and timely book, they draw your attention to the role that social and environmental factors play in mental health. This book shares extensive evidence detailing how the problems so many of us face are not individual, but a natural consequence of a broken culture and unattended psychic wounds. I have more compassion for myself and everyone else after reading this incredible book, and I can't wait to discuss it further with these two heroes who wrote it.

Today I have the honor of connecting with the renowned speaker and bestselling author Dr. Gabor Maté! Dr. Maté is highly sought-after for his expertise on various topics, including addiction, trauma, stress, and childhood development. He recently wrote a New York Times bestselling book, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness, and Healing in a Toxic Culture. For many of us, the concept of trauma is controversial and largely misunderstood. In today's discussion with Dr. Maté, I am transparent, honest, and open about how I grew up and how my childhood experiences have influenced me throughout my lifetime. We get into the definition of trauma, why trauma is so widespread and misunderstood, the differences between habit and addiction, the impact of a toxic culture and materialism, and the epidemic of loneliness. We discuss the impact of the pandemic, a loss of control, why women are at greater risk of developing autoimmune disorders, and the impact of adverse childhood events. We also speak about what negatively impacts healthy childhood development, multigenerational trauma, and healing through compassionate inquiry.   I hope you will find great value in listening to today's thought-provoking and insightful podcast! IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: Dr. Maté discusses and defines trauma. The difference between a habit and an addiction. How do various addictions ( drugs, work, shopping, attention, etc.) differ? How the loneliness and isolation from childhood trauma get carried into adult life and could lead to illness. How the social isolation of the pandemic brought some families closer together and drove others further apart. How materialism ties into trauma, addiction, and the current epidemic of loneliness. How many of the problems clinicians deal with today result from trauma and disconnection What studies show about women and autoimmune diseases. Why do we need to acknowledge the impact of the disparity within our modern-day materialist culture? What can we do to ensure that our young children develop in a healthy way?

“Our culture's skewed idea of normality,” says the well known physician and author, Dr. Gabor Maté, “is the single biggest impediment to fostering a healthier world, even keeping us from acting on what we already know.” Some years ago, his book, In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, touched and helped a tremendous number of people looking for insight into their addictive behaviors with his focus on traumas suffered at a young age. Addiction, he stressed, is one result of inadequate and counter-productive efforts to treat one's pain. In his new book, The Myth of Normal, Gabor makes the case for viewing trauma as the common template underlying most physical and mental maladies. We discussed Gabor's perspectives and personal evolution, including his growing appreciation for the value of psychedelics in identifying and healing trauma.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Gabor Maté (addiction, stress, and childhood development speaker & bestselling author) joins us to explain which groups of people tend to be most prone to chronic illness, practical ways we can prevent these diagnoses, and the link between childhood trauma and mental & physical health conditions later on in life. He details health conditions you may not know have stress-related causes and explains why healthy attachment and meeting a child's needs is even more important than we think. Dr. Maté identifies characteristics of those who are prone to chronic illness, reveals why autoimmune diseases predominantly affect women, and discusses the dangers of systematic denial of our emotions. He and Mayim consider the ways well-meaning loving parents can unintentionally create lower level trauma in their kids, how feelings of being unwanted can lead to workaholism, and the limitations of a traditional nuclear family. They discuss Dr. Maté's time working at a supervised injection site, why most people in the prison system are highly traumatized, and why trauma goes hand-in-hand with addiction.Dr. Gabor Maté's New Book, THE MYTH OF NORMAL: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/608273/the-myth-of-normal-by-gabor-mate-md-with-daniel-mate/BialikBreakdown.comYouTube.com/mayimbialik

Today's guest is a brilliantly original thinker and bestselling author on addiction, trauma, parenting, and the social context of human diseases and imbalances - Dr. Gabor Maté. Contrary to mainstream medicine, he asserts that most health issues and diseases aren't individual problems but reflections of a person's relationship with their physical, emotional, and social environment. Join Dr. Maté and Vishen for a fascinating discussion on how personal and societal responsibility cannot be separated when it comes to mental and physical health.   Dr. Gabor Maté was a physician for nearly 30 years whose best-selling books have been published in more than thirty languages. He skillfully weaves together scientific research, case histories, and his own insights and experience to present a broad perspective that enlightens and empowers people to promote their own healing and that of those around them. He is also a co-developer of a therapeutic approach, Compassionate Inquiry, now studied by therapists, physicians, counselors, and others internationally Listen out for: - The reason behind health deterioration despite the increase in our lifespan. - What toxic culture is, what's causing it, and what to do about it. - 50% of Danish men are infertile and Dr. Gabor Maté knows the reason. - How can our disease or tragedy become our biggest teacher. - How public health can be improved by having a child-honoring society. - How both Donald Trump and Hilary Clinton unwittingly promote childhood trauma. - How to heal your trauma and the role of spirituality and psychedelics.    Bonus:                                                                          - Get your copy of Dr. Gabor Maté's new book here 

Today we welcome Dr. Gabor Maté. A physician, renowned speaker, and bestselling author, Gabor is highly sought after for his expertise on addiction, stress, and childhood development. For his groundbreaking medical work and writing, he has been awarded the Order of Canada, his country's highest civilian distinction. He is also a co-developer of Compassionate Inquiry, a therapeutic approach for deep healing and transformation. His newest book is called The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness & Healing in a Toxic Culture.In this episode, I talk to Gabor Maté about The Myth of Normal. Healthcare in Western societies tend to focus on physical health, without accounting for an individual's lived experience. The tension between authenticity and attachment and the pressures of a capitalist culture puts undue stress on our minds and bodies. Dr. Maté invites us to rethink trauma and disease, by emphasizing holistic well-being and the role of agency. We also touch on the topics of early childhood, epigenetics, and self-improvement. Website: drgabormate.comTwitter: @drgabormate Topics02:36 The Myth of Normal06:14 Maslow's Metagrumbles10:25 From individual to global well-being13:25 Authenticity vs attachment20:48 No separation of psyche and soma28:05 Trauma is what happens inside you33:34 Dr. Gabor Maté's early childhood 37:20 Trauma denial and victimhood mentality41:05 Disease is a long term process45:21 Epigenetics and the role of environment50:24 Screening for special and gifted education52:45 Pathways to wholeness58:01 The four A's of healing 1:06:44 Compassionate Inquiry1:10:16 Authentic satisfaction
