The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

We are so scared of self-loathing - I get messages and emails and comments all the time with concerns over how to handle this situation. Today we dive deep into the concept of self-loathing, and why tapping into it is such an important part of healing. We cannot heal something we can't see, and your JournalSpeak practice is the vehicle to seeing. Don't be scared. When we witness unpleasant things about ourselves, we are finally able to find self compassion. Today on the pod we discuss it all. Join us!

Also, I'm excited to announce that the Curable App is once again officially sponsoring this podcast. Curable is such an incredible partner in my efforts to bringing healing to you all, and I'm so happy to include them in my offerings.

Today we are back with our popular REAL TIME HEAL series. Clara reached out last fall, struggling to overcome facial burning and pain diagnosed as Trigeminal Neuralgia. She had come a ways on her own, but was looking for guidance on how to take her healing to the next level. In hearing her story, I was stricken by the big feelings Clara had as a young child, and the anxiety that accompanied a trauma which launched her into perfectionism in order to manage her world. I relate so much!! This is the way many of us deal with the uncertainties in our lives. By the end, I feel confident that Clara has the insights and tools she needs to heal. Join us!

On my recent podcast with Gabby Bernstein (who is proudly and publicly sober and has been for years) I shared that I, too, am sober. For over 5 years. Since then, I have been receiving tons of emails asking me to dedicate a podcast to the topic, and today I decided to do so. I am further inspired to share, as I am concerned that this time of quarantine may leave more and more people susceptible to the allure of drowning their feelings and fears in substances, and I want to bring connection to this potential reality. I hope that my story can invite many of you to feel less alone. We do not have to live in the grips of alcohol, or any other substance, should we awaken to our choice not to.

Also today I announce my LIVE REAL TIME HEAL EXPERIENCE ON INSTAGRAM with Liz Melani of @thepracticeco. On May 19th at 5:30pm EDT I will go LIVE on @thepracticeco profile on Instagram and do a totally unscripted therapy session with Liz about her story and her chronic pain. Similar to all the REAL TIME HEALS, this will be totally raw and fresh, but in addition it will be LIVE. Come join us. Follow me on instagram @nicolesachslcsw and The Practice Co @thepracticeco and experience this first ever moment. I think it will help so many, and Liz is bravely willing to show up and include you all. I'm very excited!

Love and light to you, wherever this may find you. XOOX n.

The ever popular REAL TIME HEAL series is back with a moving session with Sarita. Sarita has been stalled in her healing journey and needs a boost. Today we sit together for a totally unscripted and unedited real time session, where we discuss the impact of early childhood abandonment and how it informs our lifelong coping strategies. One the these strategies that lends itself to a great deal of emotional repression is the "mask" we feel we must wear to appear a certain way to others. We fear that if our true selves are revealed, we might be abandoned once again. (The irony of corona-land and masks is not lost on us!) Join me, and the brave and lovely Sarita as we examine her life, and get her back on track for continued healing.

Hello my faves. Today on the pod we discuss the long history in my own life of people pleasing, and how it requires us to shut ourselves down to the point where we lose contact with who we are and what we need. The result of years of this behavior? Lots of pain and symptoms that are felt in our bodies, as our hearts simply have no more room to spare. Join me as we delve into exactly what people pleasing is, why we do it, and why it is so important to create a steam valve for the related feelings to be released. You may not be ready to change your people pleasing behaviors, which is fine, but there must be space for the YOU in your life, and I will help you make some. (Bonus performance by Charlotte Sachs at the end: The Ballad of Love and Hate by the Avett Brothers :)

There are so many of us who walk this path of healing, and we are a diverse group. Today on the pod I interview Meredith Carpenter, a molecular biologist and lifelong believer in the western medical model, on her journey from confusion and despair to surgery, openmindedness, willingness, and healing. Meredith originally contacted me for a REAL TIME HEAL months ago. By the time I read her submission and got in touch, she reported that she was already healed from doing the work on her own! What a joy to interview her anyway.

Meredith and I were able to talk about many facets of the healing path, as well as thoughtfully broach and debate whether or not back surgery is necessary, and engage in the kind of discourse which allows for each opinion to be honored. I'm sure there will be tidbits of wisdom for every one of us! Enjoy XOOX n.

Hahaha. I know, you hate to journal. You feel the resistance, and you struggle to show up for yourself. We have all been there. Today on the pod I address this common struggle, and help you to understand what you are actually inviting into your experience when you dedicate yourself wholesomely to the work. I know it's hard, but we can do hard things... as my fave Glennon Doyle is always telling me in my head. We can, and we must! (if we want to heal.) Also today, I announce my new IGTV series, "I Am Evidence" now on Instagram @njsachs. Search it up on Insta, and join me for more free content for your healing journey. XOOX I hope this day finds you well. -n.

Gabby Bernstein is an inspiration of the highest order - a person who not only seeks relentlessly to set herself free, but practices what she preaches with earnest willingness and passion. What a joy it was to connect with Gabby. I was originally introduced to Gabby's work in the days of my early sobriety when I read her book, The Universe Has Your Back, 5 years ago. It immediately resonated with me, as I knew intuitively that we were speaking the same language. In addition to changing my life personally, the story of her own TMS (which she didn't even know was TMS at the time!) showed me that my work was needed in this world, and encouraged me to get up every day and bring it to the global community.

Today on the pod, Gabby and I sit down to discuss the ways in which her life has changed since discovering Dr. Sarno and my work, and the ways she can continue learning and growing. Gabby is more than a fellow spiritual teacher on this planet to me now - now I can call her a friend. How lucky I am.  XOOX enjoy... n.
