The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

Anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and worry are natural and normal and many of us have them in spades. But let's consider, today, what it would be like to live each day doing the work necessary to quiet them. This is what I have been doing for the past year, and the result are pretty extraordinary. Today on this solo pod, I share with you the things that have been contributing to the potential for TONS of anxiety and stress in my life, and the ways in which this work has quelled them. I love to hop on and share my life's lessons with you. I hope it gives you some perspective on your own struggles! much love xoxox n.

Mouse was a private client of mine many moons ago. When we met, she was in a wheelchair. Her doctors had her on a bevy of medications for autoimmune diseases like Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis (they weren't sure which one she had because she had ALL the markers for both), and her plantar fasciitis was so severe she couldn't walk. And that was just the beginning - Mouse has every physical problem known to man. Cut to today: Mouse plays 18 holes of golf, swims laps for an hour a day, and take her 3-4 mile walks with endless gratitude. Her message is one of hard work and belief, and her life is most certainly the result. You will love Mouse's trademark humor and her advice: Stop taking yourself so seriously! She's also quick to point out that she used to be as serious as a heart attack about controlling pretty much everything. I love her to death and I'm so happy to share her with you today. Much love! XO n.

Gratitude is a verb. We need to learn how to live it. The nervous system is desperate for our input of calm, peace, and well being. The kind of gratitude we discuss today on the pod is the kind that brings us there. The reason we suffer ubiquitously with chronic issues is that we are in long-term, sustained fight/flight/freeze/fawn. Actively practicing gratitude is one way to circumvent this posture and allow for optimal healing. Join me today as I share a wonderful revelatory Speakpipe from Jody, and invite every one of us to remember where we have been, and where we are today. xoxox big love, n.

Heather was in a "bad mood" for months, even years. She had taken a job that was way too much pressure, and wasn't practicing self-care. One day on vacation, the occasional migraine that used to be nothing to Heather came on like a storm. She experienced numbness and pain to the point where she worried she was having a stroke! This led to a chronic situation of which I am VERY familiar. Once she found this podcast, Heather was able to begin her healing journey, but she has questions about Inner Child Work and other concepts that would help her move forward. That's what I'm here for! Join us for an inspiring and educational RTH which ends (joyfully) in gratitude for the pain and the doors it has opened between Heather and herself. You might find this odd, but actually it is the place that most people land: gratitude. This is a human life, and we are here to LIVE IT fully and without limits. That is what this work offers you. Enjoy this amazing conversation. XOOX n.

The hardest work in life is around relationships. They bring out the best but also the worst in us, as they challenge us to constantly look at ourselves, our roles, and our triggers. Join us today as we revisit this most important topic, and consider how the ways in which we deal with our own parents, children, partners, and others can affect our pain and our ability to heal. Once we get a clear view on how we are operating, we have so much more power than we realize to pause and find flexibility in our responses to life. No one wants to be a reacting machine! Let's look at this very important topic together. Join us! XOOX n.

Sometimes when we are actually in crisis, we are free of chronic symptoms because the brain and the nervous system are actively engaged in saving our own lives or someone else's. When the crisis is alleviated, however, it is then that many people come down with a chronic condition that holds the space for that long term panic. This is precisely what happened to Kristin. A busy schoolteacher and mom, Kristin was blindsided with a migraine disorder after her firstborn son emerged from years of struggle. She had no idea that her pain was tied to her long term heightened state of fear and anxiety. Join us today as we walk this path with Kristin from panic, to confusion, to willingness, to epiphany. And then to total body health and freedom! Kirstin is chronic pain free today, and so excited to help others. I love to bring these stories to you. Much love! xoxo n.

The number one question I get is always around the brain and nervous system and WHY WHY WHY it somehow feels "safer" to be sick than to feel the darkest of our human emotions. Today we revisit an episode from the Summer Series '22 where we explore just that. We are more than willing to lament to friends that we are "annoyed", "bummed", or "freaked out." But we are less likely to talk about being enraged, grieving, or terrified. This is sometimes because we are embarrassed, but more likely because these feelings operate under the cover of darkness in our subconscious minds. The nervous system feels them though, and chronic illness is a response in the form of protection. So much to understand here, and repetition is key for learning. Let's revisit this important topic, together. Much love! xoxo n.

What a fun and great learning experience to sit down with Phil De La Haye. Phil is an Internal Family Systems practitioner with a particular interest in the mindbody connection and chronic symptoms. He recovered from chronic pain himself, and JournalSpeak was a very important tool in his recovery. He’s passionate about how IFS can support the JournalSpeak process through building deep connection with all the different parts of ourselves, even the ones that seem challenging or harmful on the surface. Today I was in the hot seat (which Phil made sure was nice and cool) and I got to be the client as he engaged me in an IFS exercise with my parts! So interesting and enlightening. Enjoy this episode, and click the show notes if you want to learn more about Phil's practice and IFS. XOOX n.

Being triggered is different than being uncomfortable or annoyed. When we are truly triggered, we are brought to a place in the past when we were traumatized in some way (Big or little t) and we lose ability to control our reactions. Although triggers are normal and nothing to be ashamed of, the more awareness we practice around them the more freedom we have to affect our responses to life. No one wants to be a reacting machine. We want space to have control over the one thing we have control over in this life: our own behavior. This starts by being aware of our triggers, why we have them, and what to do in order to unmask and see them. Join me for a great discussion on triggers, partially first aired last summer as part of the summer series. I am learning new things about myself all the time, and I Invite you to do the same.

Gigi is a brilliant TMS mind who lived through 10 years of chronic illness with no idea what was wrong with her. Diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome at the age of 14, it never made sense to Gigi that her myriad symptoms were always being blamed on this one genetic anomaly. As she grew, so did her symptoms. She was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia, POTS, and others. Her worst symptoms of all were bladder pain and urgency, leading to a diagnosis of Interstitial Cystitis and eventually leaving her bedridden at the age of 21. Luckily, Gigi's mother and best advocate found my podcast in a late night desperate search, and that's where the magic begins! Gigi has her Master's in Biology from Oxford, and we do a wonderful deep dive into what it means to struggle against new ideas when we are so imbued in the Western Medical Model and what it means to heal incredibly once those new ideas are embraced. SO MUCH GOOD STUFF HERE! Join us. XOOX
