Since his first appearance on Feel Better Live More, way back in 2018, Dr Gabor Maté has become a valued friend, as well as a regular guest. I’m proud to say that he recently joined me in London as a guest speaker on the Prescribing Lifestyle Medicine course that I co-created with Dr Ayan Panja, to teach healthcare professionals the principles of lifestyle medicine.

We recorded this conversation - Gabor’s 4th appearance on my show - a couple of weeks ago in London the day before that event, and we both agreed that it is perhaps our favourite conversation to date.

For anyone not aware, Gabor is respected the world over as an expert on trauma, stress, addiction and childhood development. He is a physician, speaker and international bestselling author of some truly game-changing books such as When the Body Says No and The Myth of Normal - which has just come out in paperback.

As this is Gabor’s 4th appearance on my podcast, I was keen to explore some new ground and different topics. Gabor has worked as a family doctor as well as in palliative (end of life) care. Back on Episode 383 of this podcast, I had a wonderful conversation with Bronnie Ware, author of the book, The Five Regrets of the Dying and I thought it would be interesting to examine each of these 5 regrets, through the lens of Gabor’s thoughts and work.

We chat through all five of these regrets and Gabor provides some thought-provoking insights on each of them. He explains why we work so hard to the detriment of time with family and friends. We talk about how disease can be a teacher, why it’s vital children grow up able to express their emotions, and how we wish more doctors were aware of the connection between emotions and physical health.

We discuss happiness and if it’s possible to be happy or seek happiness when there is so much suffering in the world. This leads us on to talk about the nature of forgiveness, curiosity, compassion, and also regret. Gabor says that living life with ‘no regrets’ is about learning and understanding from your perceived mistakes, but not being unkind to who you were then. Instead we should recognise that we did the best we could do at the time.

Like all of my previous episodes with Gabor, this is a powerful conversation full of compassion, knowledge and wisdom. I hope you enjoy listening.

A perfect marriage or relationship is an illusion; there's no universal playbook for making them work. What's effective for one couple may not apply to another. Nevertheless, I've come to understand that there's always a solution to be found. Half a decade ago, my wife and I faced such trials in our marriage that divorce seemed inevitable. Yet, through perseverance and determination, we navigated through the rough waters and emerged stronger, reunited, and more resilient

I’m not far from 80 and never loved my life so much; I’m healthy, very active, engaged in issues I care about and generally feel like I have most of my adult life but with less stress and more gratitude. I’m like my house, needing attention sometimes, but still in good shape and I expect us both to keep standing for a good while yet.

I really really enjoyed meeting and speaking with him in 2017 in Oakland. Approachable, great sense of humor, down to earth guy with objective interest in EVERYTHING! Happy birthday Gabor, may you live another 20 healthy happy years!

The five regrets they discuss: 1. Living a life that others want you to, rather than being true to yourself (3:26) 2. Working too much (18:52) 3. Not expressing your emotions (32:51) 4. Not staying in touch with friends (53:14) 5. Not letting yourself be happier; no playfulness or joy (57:26)

How comes he does not have an old voice, his voice is very strong and young. Always thought he was twenty yrs younger than he is.

I wasnt even Gabor Matee super fan. But its so easy to understand how big of a difference this person can make in only few hours of listening to. So deep and understanding to what human beings are experiencing. Just one of the greatest humans ever with all his faults it seams his presence in this world is forever engraved.

Fabulous discussion. I liked Gabor's comment on his age. So true. I became 82 recently and the numbers really don't matter the way I thought they would when much younger.

I am blown away. This is a brilliant conversation. And it has taken me to reach MY eighties before I'm finally able to understand these matters. Carrying what I call the residue of trauma really devastates us. Gabor Mate shows us the way out of our pain.

Dr Chatterjee, I am a psychologist at school level and handling children,this is one of your best podcast.I second your opinion about the hole in medical school as much as Dr Mate"s researches are my own experiences as well.The cultural conditioning is so strong that as adults also expression of emotions of a mental health professionals is also considered inappropriate.Who will wake the world to change the faulty conditioning.Only fans listen to credibility of sources like you both.Keep up the great work.

I've lived my life in reverse. Went through the "old experiences" when I was young. My school friends now experiencing or facing what I went through so young. The "courage" thoughts here were very useful. A therapist told me "you did the best you could". I've been too soft in the past and got taken advantage of, but the things I regret are when I've been too hard. Still learning though. I hope I stay alive long enough to properly learn. I don't fear dying - just the manner of it and what I leave behind for the people I love. I've made mischievous plans for when I'm gone so that people laugh a lot.

Listen you don’t actually feel old until you reach your mid 90’s. The body might be sore & tired, but like Gabor said, if you’re in the throes of the fullness of life - you’re not really counting yet. 80- is just a number as much as it’s a milestone.
