  • Joining us on Slo Mo today is Dr. Gabor Maté, a revered figure in the fields of addiction, stress, and childhood development and someone I personally deeply respect and admire. We engage in a conversation that feels as intimate as one between lifelong companions and Gabor shares insights from his extensive exploration of the human condition.
    Don't forget that you can help us in our mission by preordering "Unstressable: A Practical Guide to Stress-Free Living" written by me, Mo Gawdat, and my wonderful co-author Alice Law.
    Dr. Maté's journey reveals the profound connection between our emotional well-being and physical health, shedding light on how our environments, from early childhood onwards, shape our behaviors, relationships, and even our susceptibilities to diseases. Dr. Maté invites us to consider the complex tapestry of factors influencing stress, advocating for a compassionate approach to generational healing and recovery.
    This episode is a homage to the power of understanding, the importance of empathy and speaking up no matter what impact you make, and the transformative potential of embracing vulnerability and dealing with stress.
    00:00 Intro to Unstressable series
    4:50 Why do only some of us see personal growth?
    7:12 Gabor's childhood
    8:33 Gabor & Mo discuss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza
    13:45 Why speaking up is important
    19:30 Stop the killing of children
    24:13 Be less passive and face the truth
    28:30 What is integrated thinking?
    34:19 Is being aware a choice?
    41:00 How to become free from propaganda and brainwashing
    44:15 What activates stress?
    47:19 What is the difference between chronic and acute stress?
    49:45 What can stress do to do the body?
    56:42 Gratitude
    58:50 Is Gabor a hyper-realist?
    1:05:15 Why writing with his son awakened old traumas

    Gabor Mate - my favorite human . He has wisdom , and razor sharp focus - never forget what he wanted to say , and politely waits for the interviewer to jump all around - and go back and finish his point ! Also , humble and not afraid to say what he wants to say. An extraordinary human being , and I deeply resonate with his words , always .

    This is one of the most beautiful podcast I’ve ever seen. I would so much to make a contribution even a small one to make also a little difference. I am born during world war 2, in 1942. My grandfather was shot point blank by a gestapo officer. My mothers and also my life was marked by the terrible events which continue and may never end.

    At 82, Bernie Sanders still works as an advocate for progress much as Gabor says here. Bernie must experience a mighty frustration from speaking the same messages for many decades. Only little baby steps have been made, yet he trudges on doing what he can for those who suffer. He is a role model to speak up for that which may not come to be in our time here, but will benefit those yet to come. Others have heard him and will carry the torch forward to progress. And so it goes. Like planting trees we will never experience their shade, yet others certainly will. We should learn from Native Americans to make decisions today based on the impact on the next seven generations. We should have learned earlier and the mess we are in would have never come about. Humans are easily distracted by themselves, and shiny things. We must never stop speaking out even if it feels futile. Great discussion between two grand humans.

      Bernie Sanders was for months, against a permanent ceasefire, he only changed his stance when it became accepted to call out genocide. If that doesn't st least hint a lack of integrity, then I don't know what does... Maybe don't idealize people?

      Thank you for your post. Your words were a message I was meant to receive today. As futile as my small contribution to humanity may appear to others, it is def something I believe I am here to do. I was Traumatized as a small toddler up to my youth by my farhers abuse, as were my siblings. I knew from very early that I was different and relied on my spirit to help me navigate my journey. Healing took a long time, decades and there were many times I almost gave up. Trauma is not a death sentence, forgiveness is key but first we must see ourselves through it. I hope to pass on everything it took for me to live a loving and peaceful life today. Thanks to Gabor's and so many other's work, I have hope for my siblings and those out there still suffering. ❤

I’ve read and listened to “ Myth of Normal” multiple times and anytime I read it again or listen to conversations like this , it feels as fresh and enlightening as the first time .I know Dr Mate is a recipient of “order of Canada” which he might not be very keen about but for us “people “ he well deserves Nobel Prize, , “people’s Noble prize”, for all his work and his compassion

    Love this conversation and always enjoy both these men. I would note that so much of the world's pain is perpetrated by an imbalance in the world that values wealth, progress, achievement, competition, power, dominance, greed, aggression, violence, fear and war. War is so profitable. We must rebalance or we are gone!!! The earth will survive but we won't be on it. We must fundamentally to our core and with slow and steady awareness begin, and put first, valuing the earth, family, community, slowing down, sufficiency (capitalism thrives on feelings of insufficiency), authenticity, love, compassion above all else. And always always always the children. We are in a world now where we are watching children being massacred on a mass scale. This shows us there really are no red lines in the pursuit of wealth, dominance, greed and control. Killing children was supposed to be a red line. This has to be a turning point for humanity.

    As a recovered alcoholic, not only do I realize the work on myself will never be complete (unless God has other plans and my karma vanishes!), but giving back to others who suffer will never be finished either.
    Every time I think I've had enough; I think I've been faking this whole time and am useless, too damaged, something comes over me and I feel a rush of continuing on.
    The great bodhisattvas who are actually on the cusp of enlightenment choose to stay here amongst us in order that no one be left behind.
    When my perfectionism kicks in, Mo, I also am reminded that the slightest gesture from one of us to another can have a massive impact at the end of the day. The smile, pleasantry, opening of a door, paying forward in a coffee line, all the way to interjecting with wisdom during an altercation has what some still call the butterfly effect.
    Experiment. Frown when you greet another or smile. Does that person continue the rest of the day unaffected? Have you, like an engineer, taken the wheel of their life or given them a suggestion toward light or darkness?

    Good afternoon Mo and Gabor
    Super brilliant.
    So appreciate Gabor's work. Sanity brain gym for sure.
    Over two years ago I began a giant healing process a wee bit different to my previous maladaptive coping strategies, in short.
    Facing bullies at fifty years young has been a troubling process. Certainly growth absolutely evident, however not without consequence.
    Again, Long story short the management and lack of good leadership has made a mockery of mental health and services. (Polite description!)
    A public service I have loved being a big part of, providing mental health addiction care and treatment to patients in our local community for nearing two decades.
    Sadly yesterday I finally gave up 'my fight' with my employer NHS and a two year workplace dispute so shocking even I wouldn't believe it if it hadn't been happening to me and indeed my family secondary to.
    So just yesterday I sent an email to union RCN requesting Constructive dismissal process be put in process.
    Most difficult words I've wrote to date.
    Again truly grateful for you both.
    One door closes another requires opening.😃
    Meditation is key for me.
    Thankyou.
    💜

    It is helpful, within the context of the insanity of what we see happening around us, that dedicated beings like Gabor and Mo impart their compassionate wisdom and yet, it is abundantly clear and within the realm of despair, that they both admit that, inevitably, we are powerless to really do anything. BUT, as Gabor prompts... we must try! Eventually we need to shut up, roll up our sleeves and do whatever we can to try and effect change, with a collective focus that the damaged mindsets of the elitist power brokers who spread such degrees of misery all around us, eventually (hopefully sooner than later!) become nothing more than abhorrent relics of the past - dust in the wind! May it be so! May ALL beings be free from suffering!

    Really good interview and Dr mate is one of my favorites. But I'd really love to have heard more specifics on what can and should be done in the individual life to break chronic stress or to offset stress so it doesn't become chronic. What is the healthy dynamic to do that that obviously a large majority of us in the population have not been programmed to know
    Thank you DR Mate for acknowledging that when you are in survival mode trying to put food on the table you don't have the time, the money or the resources to lower your stress as much as you would need whether that is buying the better food the time off from work children and responsibilities to go take a long walk in nature or to pay for and sign up for a yoga class or even to have the amount of quiet and safety to allow your programming to be interrupted because when you are in survival mode whether that's the bills the demands it is triggering that automatic program daily hourly.

You can’t compare traumas because you can’t crawl into someone else’s brain to feel what they have experienced. I understand that my trauma is so complex that I’m not sure how I’m still here. I used to self medicate but now I try to sleep to block it. But you can’t control nightmares. Give me drugs anytime but not once that make my condition worse

    “Unless you have a shot to make a difference it is actually wise not to take any shots at all.” All very well in principle and relatively easy to say for those with relatively broad abilities, but people must put food on the table (I am glad Mate brought this up later). So, what is it to not take a shot?
    An engineer applies knowledge to how near enough is good enough, to minimise cost in practically achieving an outcome.
    Politics has to do with everything.
    Free will does not come into it with an interrupt. The computer program analogy had the interruption built in. It is determined in humanity as well. Mate’s interruption was not devoid of causes that requires an explanation by way of free will. His sense of freedom is a feeling. The objective evidence supports Sapolsky.
    Confronting stress does not necessarily mean that it can be dealt with.
    The truth can bring stress, but I do not think the truth should be denied.
    Attempted stress management can increase stress by adding to overall workload.
    Gratitude is an odd concept when not directed towards anyone.
    Parenting from the heart still needs oversight of the mind and not relenting to every demand of the child, for the long-term benefit of the child.

    Thanks for doing this frank discussion about what to do about things that may not be resolved. Speaking up and reaching to do something matters. Interesting to hear the example of , we live in a world where a goal is scored or a team wins in the playoff's (usually men's sports and slowly womyn sports are being highlighted) are front NEWS and yet, the bombing of people is NOT. Womyn have lived in this for generations. The killing, raping and beating of womyn rarely made news, even in their own families, churches, etc. But the athlete that did these violent acts on the womyn in their life would receive TROPHIES for playing a sport, and the talk of the town. PATRIARCHY still is NOT being discussed, even in this video. Patriarchy is about a system that is passed down, generation after generation, and supported culturally and in families etc. It is a system of hierarchy. It is a system of competition . It is a system of power 'over', ONE winner. ALL disconnecting and learned by 5 years old. Until we start talking about this root issue, we will be spinning our wheels, from one "issue" to the next. Moving OUT of this old system, calling it OUT, so it can be "known", and finding new ways of being, that are NOT patriarchal. Collaboration, consideration, communication until understanding happens, compassion, inclusion, sharing, etc....are "ethics of care", connecting and NOT rooted in patriarchy. Thanks for these discussion that shine a light on old ways, that do such damage.

    Taylor and Travis get more ink because everyone can relate and has an opinion on how they might feel or react in their shoes. Plus, it's mostly fun; positive; easy.
    Most of us don't have the basic political, historical and scientific skills to be able to think about the more impactful concerns around war, economy and the environment.
    If we stop drilling for oil who employs those workers? Stop all wars (?) who attends to the retraining and healing of the most violent soldiers?
    Remember, if you're travelling at 130 and suddenly hit the breaks, there's great potential for damage all around, even if you're strapped in.

    “According to Dr. Gabor Maté, those who do hold extreme anti-vaccine ideologies, like people who have organized protests or aggressively taken to social media to spread conspiracy theories, often do so out of unresolved trauma from their childhoods.”
    Gabor has all sympathies for Gaza but none for people who didn’t believe in the government propaganda of “safe and effective” and protested being under duress being forced to take a shot or lose their job, benefits, home etc.??
    How can a man who speaks of surviving the Holocaust be so blind to people suffering under mandates that violate Nuremberg codes.
    The shot was given without informed consent and information was kept secret:
    “Nuremburg Code 1. The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion, and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision. This latter element requires that before the acceptance of an affirmative decision by the experimental subject there should be made known to him the nature, duration, and purpose of the experiment; the method and means by which it is to be conducted; all inconveniences and hazards reasonably to be expected; and the effects upon his health or person which may possibly come from his participation in the experiment.”
    In short, we aren’t all suffering childhood traumas because we disagree with our government’s policies, and we shouldn’t be censored for asking questions and demanding transparency. I’m shocked that Gabor would take an authoritarian doctor stance that vaccines are all good and necessary without clarification. I like Gabor’s body of work so it’s really disappointing but to see that he lacks insight in this area perhaps due to his own trauma. Can’t he see that governments can be capable of perpetrating crimes against their people for any number of agendas historically…and that people must be aware and able to question? I would expect a man of his caliper would be in the forefront giving at least the benefit of the doubt until objectivity could be established or even entertained. Nazi Germany got rid of dissidents and those trying to sound the alarm. But it came too late and genocide occurred.

    We would like to see Mo draw more from his Muslim culture and background and own it. People speak of Buddhism and Christianity as traditions of wisdom and Islam has been so vilified in the media that they don’t realise that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was an incredibly magnanimous man, a wise man, a unique leader and that our tradition is full of wisdom. 2 billion people are of that tradition - it can’t be ignored.

    Oh dear, this is definitely more blame-gaming and tearing people down, which is at least part of the reason we're all in this mess, again.
    As far as tech, it's nothing new really. People in power who are also unwell or unbalanced have always used propaganda/distraction/gaslighting. We just think it's new because our sense of history is quite short sighted. The tech we use today is new, but our motivations are the same.
    Storytelling is the goal, whatever tech is the tool. Hieroglyphics, alphabets, avatars, sign languages, micro-expressions, art deliberate scenting, even feng shui. Great tools that can manipulate outcomes both consciously and not.
    What is your orientation? Telling a story is neutral itself, not good or bad, just like mindfulness.

    thankyou Gabor for refusing to compare his trauma to others' . At least its clear his parents loved him and were simply at the mercy of terrible circumstances becynd their control ... but the ultimate betrayal must be when a child is severely and deliberately abused by their own parents ... unimaginable
    and then there is what happened to boys in public schools in UK .. like Charles Spencers book describes .. unimaginable trauma , WILLING abandonment by the parents ! .. and parents then not even complaining when the abuse was going on .. Gabors mother had no choice, she acted to save his life ... But this is abandonment at another level !
