Healing Trauma & Addiction | 7 Lectures (6 Hours)

Episode One: The Power of Connection
Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté October 1, 2020 67 Minutes
Gabor weaves together the role of early childhood trauma, difficulties and stresses in the household, the wounds that parents carry and inadvertently pass on to their children, as well as societal and environmental stresses. Drawing on well-documented research in biochemistry, neurology, and physiology, Gabor ‘connects the dots’ in explaining how these factors influence us and contribute to asthma, heart disease, hypertension, diseases of the gut, cancers, addiction and more. He invites us to use curiosity to explore and understand ourselves and our clients, and through this new understanding, paints a path to begin making the fundamental societal change that can positively impact the next generation.

Episode Two: A New Look At Addiction

Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté October 3, 2020 40 Minutes
In this episode, we look at addiction and its impact on us, both individually and as part of a family or group of loved ones. Dr. Gabor Maté’s approach to addiction requires thinking about ourselves and our experiences differently than we have in the past. Gabor introduces us to a new look at addiction and trauma.

Episode Three: Exploring Our Trauma

Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté October 10, 2020 46 Minutes
Gabor begins to explore trauma and how it affects us. By “us,” we mean not just the person struggling with addiction, but that person’s loved ones. And by “trauma,” Gabor is referring to particular traumas that happened to us early in life.

Episode Four: Understanding Generational Trauma

Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté October 17, 2020 48 Minutes
Gabor asks us to deeply examine how trauma is passed from one generation to the next. The experiences we have as children stay with us as adults. We heal, and we change our behaviors, only when we become aware of how our traumas have affected us.

Episode Five: Beyond Codependency & Victimhood

Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté October 24, 2020 48 Minutes
Gabor explains the concept of perception of self and others, and how our perceptions (and the things that formed them) influence how we experience the world.

Episode Six: Addiction: A Disease or a Developmental Condition?

Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté October 31, 2020 32 Minutes
Dr. Gabor Maté expands the discussion on how the desire to self-medicate discomfort drives addiction. We explore how early childhood experiences affect the development of impulse control and brain pathways that drive addictive behaviors. We then discuss how we break the cycle of addiction as it is passed down through families. But first we must fundamentally understand if addiction is a disease or a development disorder.

Episode Seven: Ending The Cycle of Addiction
Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté November 7, 2020 30 Minutes
Dr. Maté dives deeper into addressing what’s needed to support the healing of the person struggling with addiction. We look at the family and loved ones in that person’s life, and their roles. We revisit family relationships and codependency, and learn the practices that help heal the addicted brain. Gabor expands on learning longer-term steps to heal the harm that has come about (on all sides) as a result of the addiction and the underlying trauma that caused it.

Episode Eight: The Cure to Addiction
Healing Trauma & Addiction Series | Dr. Gabor Maté November 14, 2020 36 Minutes
In the final episode we bring together the most important elements to attain long-term recovery from addiction. Gabor demonstrates how to cultivate a support system that helps to rebuild our brain pathways, the importances of readiness for recovery, and a review of some of the most promising psychotherapeutic approaches and additional tools that help achieve and maintain recovery.

A Masterclass for Healers | 6 Lectures (6.5 Hours)

Lecture one: The Power of Connection
A Masterclass For Healers Training March 1, 2020 67 Minutes
Gabor weaves together the role of early childhood trauma, difficulties and stresses in the household, the wounds that parents carry and inadvertently pass on to their children, as well as societal and environmental stresses. Drawing on well-documented research in biochemistry, neurology, and physiology, Gabor ‘connects the dots’ in explaining how these factors influence us and contribute to asthma, heart disease, hypertension, diseases of the gut, cancers, addiction and more. He invites us to use curiosity to explore and understand ourselves and our clients, and through this new understanding, paints a path to begin making the fundamental societal change that can positively impact the next generation.

Lecture Two: Exploring The Mind-Body Connection
A Masterclass For Healers Training March 8, 2020 51 Minutes
Gabor explores how the mind influences our physiology, and how our perceptions create our world, but before that, our world influences the creation of our perceptions. When we help our clients to rewrite early messages, not changing what happened, but understanding it as a necessary decision for survival, we can change our current perceptions and behaviors. This impacts physiology, psychology, relationships, and virtually all of our perceptions of the world. By learning how to use a combination of tools and techniques to educate and reach our clients, we enhance our capacity to reach them. At the most basic, fully accepting and embracing compassion for our clients with unconditional positive regard — which requires looking at our own self-judgments and wounds — opens up a new and much deeper capacity for healing with our clients.

Lecture Three: The Five Levels of Compassion
A Masterclass For Healers Training March 15, 2020 60 Minutes
Gabor describes the five levels of compassion, and the blocks within us as professionals that often keep us from reaching the deepest and most profound attunement with our clients, which, in turn, limits our ability to do our best work. By unpacking and exploring these blocks — which even the most experienced therapists and counselors, with decades of self-work can benefit from — we heal ourselves, and in so doing, find greater understanding and deeper regard for our clients and their stories and wounds.

Lecture Four: Compassion and Understanding Verses Judgements & The Disease Model
A Masterclass For Healers Training March 22, 2020 73 Minutes
Gabor explores the common fears around self-disclosure and the balance between appropriate client-therapist boundaries, on the one hand, and the benefits of deeper empathic connection that can come from appropriate self-disclosure that enhances therapeutic attunement by deepening empathy.

Lecture Five: Stress & Trauma on the Developing Child
A Masterclass For Healers Training March 29, 2020 65 Minutes
An exploration of our own wounds of codependency and how, even when we are self-aware, these behaviors can show up in our work enable us to explore and, with curiosity and self-compassion, understand where these behaviors might be hiding in our work, where they came from, and how we can bring greater awareness to them. Even most therapists with decades of self-exploration will gain new insights that can enable a deepened sense of connection with clients, with a clearer understanding of how our wounds get in the way of doing our best work. By understanding our own self-judgments and practicing self-compassion in letting them go, we free ourselves to do better work.

Lecture Six: Brain Science, Physiology, & the Role of Attachment From Birth to Adulthood
A Masterclass For Healers Training April 5, 2020 55 Minutes
Gabor explores why he does not view addiction as a disease of the brain, and how compelling evidence points to traumas and other experiences early in life set the stage for survival strategies that impact the development of neural pathways that ultimately lead to not only risk of addiction, but many other psychological disorders and even physical diseases. By understanding what addictive behaviors do for us — finding the underlying pain, solving the pain in one way or another that we have experienced — and changing these patterns we developed, cultivating attunement not only in the therapeutic environment, but in a client’s daily life, we can re-pattern and change the function of the brain and replace the ineffective strategies and behaviors with more effective ones. A discussion of the neurotransmitter and brain pathways that are involved helps provide a clear biochemical basis for the origin of the problems and offers hope for long-term change.
