Why study Trauma & Awakening?
These deeply uncertain and challenging times can cause unresolved trauma, pain, and stress to flare up in our daily lives in frustrating and even debilitating ways.

But our suffering can also be a powerful catalyst for self discovery, spiritual growth, and immense joy. The key is understanding how to correctly address and integrate it into our spiritual endeavors as a means of profound healing.

In these talks, Dr. Gabor Maté and Hameed Ali will discuss how to transform your pain, in any form, into self knowledge, self actualization, and bliss. In the process, they’ll discuss:
What it means to be awakened
How trauma can show up on the spiritual path
How suffering can be a portal into spiritual awakening
How to use trauma and suffering as a portal for going deeper into your true nature
How A H Almaas’ teachings have been a primary influence on Dr Gabor Maté’s body of work
How spiritual work which is not trauma-informed can create further trauma
And much, much more!
