Dr Gabor Maté | "Sensitive people used to be our Shamans - now they are shamed"

#gabormate #addiction #trauma Doctor Gabor Maté is an internationally renowned speaker highly sought after for his expertise on addiction, trauma, childhood development, and the relationship of stress and illness. His books include "Scattered Minds: A New Look at the Origins and Healing of Attention Deficit Disorder", "When the Body Says No: The Cost of Hidden Stress”, "Hold on to Your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More Than Peers” and "In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction”.

In Part 4 of his How To Academy event, Gabor answers addiction-related questions from the livestream audience - addressing, among other things, "deep sensitivity", dissociation, taboos, abstinence and how "recovery" means to find a part of yourself again.
