The Wisdom of Trauma

Description

Can your deepest pain be a doorway to healing? FREE movie screening and dinner. Featuring Dr. Gabor Mate, this film has the intention of inspiring a movement towards a trauma-informed society. 

Trauma is the invisible force that shapes our lives. It shapes the way we live, the way we love and the way we make sense of the world. It is the root of our deepest wounds.

Dr Mate has dedicated his life to understanding the connection between illness, addiction, trauma and society. He gives a new vision in which parents, teachers, physicians, policy-makers and legal personnel are not concerned with fixing behaviors, making diagnoses, suppressing symptoms and judging, but seek instead to understand the sources from which troubling behaviors and diseases spring in the wounded human soul.
