Your Body Remembers Everything - Dr. Gabor Maté

About this episode

Dr. Gabor Maté discusses how unresolved trauma affects physical and mental health.

What if the pain you've been carrying in your body isn't a weakness it's a message? Dr. Gabor Maté is a Canadian physician, bestselling author, and one of the world's most compassionate voices on trauma, addiction, and the mind-body connection. With decades of experience in family medicine and childhood development, he has helped redefine how we understand suffering — not as a personal flaw, but as a natural response to pain that was never properly healed. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Maté explores why the body keeps a record of everything we've been through, how unresolved trauma shapes our physical and mental health, and why the real question behind addiction is never about the substance — it's always about the pain underneath. This May, in recognition of Mental Health Month, we are proud to share this conversation as a reminder that healing is not only possible — it is your right. 💓 Start your heart coherence journey with HeartMath: https://www.heartmath.com/resilient Take action and strengthen your mind with The Resilient Mind Journal.
