Dr. Gabor Maté on Compassionate Inquiry, with Sean Fargo

  • Summary

  • Each of us longs to be seen, heard and loved. Inquiring about our experience with curiosity and compassion lets us face old pains and strong emotions we’ve long ignored, which can lead to healing if we feel safe in our bodies, in the present moment, and in secure relationship with others. Through the method of Compassionate Inquiry, Dr. Gabor Maté teaches therapists, counselors and individuals to uncover the unconscious dynamics that run our lives, and find freedom from these habits. The method has gained worldwide recognition for its enlightening, empowering approach to healing. In a safe space, connected to our body, our breath and the present moment, we’re guided to gently uncover the layers of childhood trauma and suppressed emotion at the root of our illness and addiction. Although we begin with a guide, compassionate inquiry is ultimately a practice we can attend to on our own. In this episode, Gabor and Sean discuss the relationship between Compassionate Inquiry and the kind, non-judgmental curiosity we learn through the practice of mindfulness, the 5 levels of compassion that comprise the Compassionate Inquiry process, and why being triggered is not always a bad thing, especially within the safe container of compassionate, kind awareness.  Dr. Gabor Maté is a best selling author and sought-after speaker whose experience is rooted in 20 years of practice as a physician in family practice, palliative care, and addiction. This interview is a brief excerpt from a presentation he gave to the Mindfulness Exercises Mindfulness Teacher Training program.
