Gabor Maté
“Given this order of operations, children’s sense of security, trust in the world, interrelationships with others, and, above all, connection to their authentic emotions hinge on the consistent availability of attuned, non-stressed, and emotionally reliable caregivers. The more stressed or distracted the latter, the shakier the emotional architecture of the child’s mind will be.”
Gabor Maté, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture

“If you give yourself 30 days to clean to clean your home, it will take you 30 days. But if you give yourself 3 hours, it will take your 3 hours
. The same applies to your goals, ambitions and potential.”

“Unless we can measure something, science won’t concede it exists, which is why science refuses to deal with such “nonthings” as the emotions, the mind, the soul, or the spirit.”
Gabor Maté, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture

Gabor Maté
“People bearing trauma’s scars almost uniformly develop a shame-based view of themselves at the core, a negative self-perception most of them are all too conscious of. Among the most poisonous consequences of shame is the loss of compassion for oneself. The more severe the trauma, the more total that loss.”
Gabor Maté, The Myth of Normal: Trauma, Illness and Healing in a Toxic Culture

“Facing it directly without either denial or overidentification becomes a doorway to health and balance”
