Anxiety, depression, auto-immune disease, addiction and suicide have been on the rise in the United States since before the COVID-19 pandemic. So what’s going on? Typically, we glaze over this question and focus instead on labeling people with diagnoses, treating symptoms and fixing behaviors.
In this interview with Sean Fargo, Dr. Gabor Maté suggests we start by mindfully caring for our emotional wellbeing. By compassionately exploring the wounded human soul and the trauma at the source of our deepest pain, we can learn to heal ourselves and those around us.
Topics in this episode include the parallels between emotional health and immunity, and the role of healthy anger, , why Dr. Maté never advises anyone not to judge, and how those of us in helping professions can better practice self-care for sustainable compassion.
Dr. Gabor Maté is a best-selling author and sought-after speaker whose experience is rooted in 20 years of practice as a physician in family practice, palliative care, and addiction.
This interview is a brief excerpt from a presentation he gave to the Mindfulness Exercises Mindfulness Teacher Training program. You can learn more about that program and the other world-class presenters who join as guest teachers at Teach.MindfulnessExercises.com
