The Return to Ourselves: Trauma, Healing, and the Myth of Normal by Gabor Maté

What if everything from diseases like arthritis and cancer to addictions and impulsive behaviors were traceable to childhood trauma--and that trauma was actually built into our society? What if our attempts to be "normal" in a dysfunctional culture actually create more illness? In The Return to Ourselves, Dr. Gabor Mate presents a powerful audio program to help us repair the inevitable damage we all experience from growing up in a world of disconnection. Here he guides us through inquiries and practices to explore and heal the early trauma that separates us from our essential value and self-worth--so we may return to the inherent wholeness that is always present within.
