I am off to Chicago to teach with the fabulous and wise Dr. John Stracks! Today on the pod we discuss the art of being uncomfortable - being able to do the next right thing for ourselves, even when it's hard. As a society, we are taught from day one that we need not be uncomfortable... there's a pill for that! But unfortunately, a little healthy discomfort is the only way to make substantive change in our lives. Join us today for a thoughtful discussion on this, and the possibility it opens to make fear and choice and not a given. I hope to see you in Chicago tomorrow! XOOX n.

Our teen ambassador Kate is back! After our first podcast on Teens Teaching Teens this past winter (Season 3, Episode 74), parents from all over the country wrote to us about their teens' struggles with chronic issues. Kate and I started working to connect these kids with the mindset and work they needed to heal. Catherine was one of these kids - A D1 athlete who is off to college to play Lacrosse. At the time, she was suffering in chronic knee pain, even with a clean MRI. After meeting with us and dedicating herself to a JournalSpeak practice, Catherine is back on the field and no longer in pain. Truly, it has changed her life. It's been fantastic working with a teen ambassador. Kate will be joining us at OMEGA! If there is a teen in your life who would benefit from a deep dive immersion into this work, join us at the OMEGA INSTITUTE JUNE 23-28.

S3 Ep88: Teen Sports Injuries and a JournalSpeak Success Story with Kate and Catherine

I met NBA Denver Nugget's Forward Michael Porter, Jr. at a rather low point in his life. He had been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease while still in his teens, and by the time we crossed paths he'd had three back surgeries that didn't cure his pain. In fact, in the Summer of 2023 when we came together, he was in a flare so bad he was struggling to walk up the stairs. Thankfully for Mike, he is blessed with an open mind and a curious nature. He knew after surgery #3 that he had to find another way to look at his pain, or risk losing his career. After discovering Dr. Sarno's work, he quickly came across mine. Michael's life has never been the same. 



He dove into JournalSpeak, boldly and bravely looking at the places he was holding anger, grief, and shame. He examined his childhood, and made profound connections about things like achieving in basketball and his perception of being loved. Paired with the essentials of a TMS mindset and an understanding of the brain science, unearthing these core emotions and truths set him free. Today, Michael is (pun intended) at the top of his game. He has no chronic back pain whatsoever, and when he gets even a hint of a sensation, he need only employ the principles of MindBody medicine to send it on its way. I could go on forever about his uncommon wisdom for a 25-year-old, but I'd rather you hear it from Michael yourself. Enjoy this interview with a true inspiration - a young man who has taken back his life and his power, and has found himself unstoppable. Enjoy! XO n.

S3 Ep87: Michael Porter, Jr. is FREE of Chronic Back Pain and Playing the Best Basketball of his Life

I met Monica when I received the loveliest email about her pain journey. Monica had been suffering with chronic pain and symptoms for quite some time, and through her understanding of MindBody medicine and doing my work, she was thriving. As so often happens, Monica used the jumping off point of her own recovery to change her professional life as well. After training in somatic tracking and pain reprocessing, Monica now helps others move through their pain using the theories and methods we are always talking about on this pod! She's also an admin on my larger JournalSpeak online community (link below) and coming to spend time with us this summer at The Omega Institute June 23-28th to put all of this work into motion. I CANNOT WAIT! Today on the pod we talk about why somatic tracking works, and how to add it to your toolkit. So much great stuff here. Enjoy. XOOX n.

S3 Ep86: Embodiment Through Somatic Tracking with Monica Lia

This month's Q&A; in our Membership Community was SO inspiring and insightful. Each month this fellowship gets together to hang out in an intimate group and ask me anything about their TMS/symptoms/diagnoses/worries/fears and whatever else. This month was so GOOD. Join us for great info on topics such as health anxiety, neck and shoulder pain, vertigo, pelvic pain, classic Sarno back pain, and so much more. There are few things more powerful than being in community when you are doing this work. Today is a profound example. A couple pretty badass success stories too! 



Also today, an exciting announcement! The Sarno x Sachs Practitioner Training will launch April 29th!! Lisa and I have been working with Christina Sarno for over a year to compile the most effective and best practices to carry this TMS work into your professional and personal worlds. Stay tuned to the pod and my instagram (@nicolesachslcsw) for more information on signing up and getting the 18.75 CE credits for Psychologists, Social workers, and Counselors!



Enjoy. xoxo n.

S3 Ep85: Tearful Success Stories and Questions on Health Anxiety, Vertigo, and more!

How great to connect with another Sarno OG! Karen, like me, sat across from Dr. Sarno in his iconic office at The Rusk Center for Rehabilitation at NYU/Langone in New York City back in the day when he was still in practice. His confident and unapologetic style was the inspiration for everything I do and teach, and Karen is right there with me. I have been hearing from Karen for years, as although Sarno was her intro to this work, she credits my contributions for taking her to the next level of wellness. Today we talk about her inspiring story, as well as dive into a bit of a Real Time Heal around her persistent symptoms of allergies and nasal congestion. Over the years (and in several interviews here on the pod) I've heard many people recount having terrible allergies only to connect them to TMS and have them resolve completely! It's such good stuff. Enjoy this powerful conversation! XO n.
