Dr. Gabor Maté, bestselling author and renowned addiction and trauma expert, reveals the surprising connection between repressed anger, boundaries, and immune health — and why suppressing your emotions may be making you physically ill.
Through a simple live demonstration, Dr. Maté shows that anger, when expressed in the moment, is a biological boundary defense, just like the immune system.
This talk explores how emotional suppression, people-pleasing, chronic self-neglect, and the fear of disappointing others can dysregulate the immune system and contribute to autoimmune disease, chronic fatigue, and long-term illness, especially in women and marginalized communities.
