<p>Download my new and improved brain detox app here: https://neurocycle.app</p> <p><br></p> <p>SHOW DESCRIPTION: In this podcast I talk to renowned physician, speaker and bestselling author Dr. Gabor Maté about his latest book <a href="https://drgabormate.com/book/the-myth-of-normal/"><em>The Myth of Normal</em></a>, common misconceptions of what makes us sick, how to manage childhood trauma, parenting and mental health, and so much more! Dr. Maté is highly sought after for his expertise on a range of topics including addiction, stress and childhood development. Rather than offering quick-fix solutions to these complex issues, Dr. Maté weaves together scientific research, case histories, and his own insights and experience to present a broad perspective that enlightens and empowers people to promote their own healing and that of those around them. </p> <p><br></p> <p>Read the blog here: <a href="https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate">https://drleaf.com/blogs/news/the-myth-of-normal-with-dr-gabor-mate</a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Sign up to Patreon to get access to full AD-FREE episodes, exclusive downloads, live Q&amp;As, and more: https://www.patreon.com/drcarolineleaf</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>OFFERS FROM OUR SPONSORS:</p> <p>-BiOptimizers <strong>Sleep Breakthrough: If you&#39;re struggling with sleep, I highly recommend giving Sleep Breakthrough a try.
