This interview is one for the history books. Not only is Rachel's story CRAZY inspirational, the magic that accompanies our knowing one another and the synergy of how it unfolded is uncommon and moving. I can't wait to share this one with you! Note: we had some unforeseen technical issues in the last 5 minutes of our talk, so please forgive the audio glitch. It doesn't take away 1% from the power of this tale of recovery. Special thanks to Oliver Sachs for coming through with a genius audio edit. Gotta love having a son at NYU studying music technology. 

Through postpartum depression, panic attacks, back and hip pain, Rachel fought her way through and out as only our sweet "Fight Song" warrior could, and her description of the lowest lows and the revelation of recovery will motivate you to carry forth through your own. So much love from both of us to all of you. xoxo n.

Barb walked into my life on a chilly Saturday in February. She had flown all the way from New Jersey to Chicago to attend my first ever in person retreat - one of 20 people in attendance! Over the years I have watched Barb grow and flourish, releasing all of her chronic pain and first appearing on this podcast Season 1 Episode 41.She then wrote up her amazing story for inclusion in my upcoming book! A few weeks ago, Barb reached out and offered to come back on the pod. Little did I know at the time, she wanted to discuss one of the most hotly discussed and important issues - RELAPSE. Barb has been through a rough spot and come out stronger, clearer, and more empowered than ever before! I'm so excited to share this essential episode with you. Much love! xoxo n.

PART THREE! People in our communities often refer to their favorite "Nicole-isms" - things I say over and over that hold a great deal of guidance for your recovery. We decided to dedicate a few podcasts to a deep dive into what I mean by some of these phrases, and how you can get the most out of them to aid in your ease and progress on this path. Today, we are taking on three final essential ones: Sometimes you feel things in your heart, and sometimes you feel things in your body, and they are literally interchangeable (The MindBody Connection), The ANSR, and Ascension.Join me for an in-depth discussion on each, and learn how applying these concepts to your journey will make it much smoother. Sending you the biggest love! xoxo n.

Lately, many of Lisa and my conversations have been focused on the essential role of MINDSET in transforming chronic pain. Today on the podcast, we revisit an episode that got a ton of great feedback last winter when it first came out. In it, I discussed a bout of severe wrist pain that came out of nowhere, what it could have meant for me if I didn't understand TMS, and the mindset I immediately inhabited to pull myself out of it quickly. There is no example like oneself as it relates to learning and teaching, and here I come to you with a very personal experience. I hope it helps you shift you own mindset in some small way that moves you forward on this path! XOXO n.   ONLY A FEW DAYS LEFT!

When Jonah Primo, host of the in-app podcast Work in Progress on the WAKING UP app contacted us, Lisa and I were elated. We are long time fans of WAKING UP and its founder, neuroscientist Sam Harris, and we were enthusiastic about sharing space with such a like-minded person. But that was just the beginning. Jonah's own pain story was stunning, and we quickly jumped on the chance to have him on our podcast to tell his tale of complete despair to recovery using the mindset and tools of MindBody medicine. After being a totally health and athletic 27-year-old, Jonah found himself so swallowed by a laundry list of symptoms that he quite literally struggled to walk. As he became skeptical of the medical model to cure his pain, he turned in our direction and the rest is history. Join us for a striking tale of recovery from some of the most common (yet most terrifying) symptoms we hear about - vertigo, migraines, anxiety, and the dreaded Long Covid. I know you will get so much out of what we discuss. Much love! xoxo n.

The day has finally come! Lisa and I have spent months and months working with designers and developers to ideate, explore, expand, and ultimately create our new website: www.yourbreakawake.com. Not to fear - www.thecureforchronicpain.com and www.nicolesachs.com will both take you there as well. The new site is not only here to offer you everything we teach with better technology and more ease (although it does!) but it also takes chronic pain recovery to the next level. We will still be showing up with every single thing you need to live in the solution of MindBody medicine, but we will also be broadening our support to you.

In creating Your BreakAwake, we asked ourselves, "What happens AFTER chronic pain is no longer the guiding force in one's life? What then?" We sought to evolve the conversation of what it means to redefine chronic - chronically well, thriving, expanding, living with limitless possibilities. Today we reveal all of our hard work to you.

As always, a heart-opening and eye-opening Q&A with the wonderful, brave warriors of our membership community. Just like you, they are walking the path of this work, and when they have questions it is such a great opportunity to share the answers with all of you. Today on the pod we discuss heightened anxiety when the nervous system is stuck in fight or flight, managing symptom flare as they ebb and flow with the vicissitudes of life, pelvic pain, gastritis, and more. We seem to keep landing on the theme of radical acceptance, so that is the topic of our next all-community member zoom. I hope the summer is treating you well. If you are a little lost or needing my support and the power of community, join us at www.yourbreakawake.com!

We get A LOT of emails and messages about insomnia. So when we were perusing past episodes to find the most important content to bring forth during this busy summer season, this one caught our eye. It's so easy, without the right awareness, to get caught in the unconscious loop of feeling numb, and "waiting" for things to change before doing this or that to help yourself. We put things off all the time, and the anxiety and rumination this engenders leads to TONS of insomnia. Today we dive into all of it, led by a Speakpipe from a member of our global community. If insomnia or feeling numb to life are things that affect you, this will be a great episode to reset your perspective and give you a little boost to JUST KEEP SWIMMING. Sending you lots of love as we round out our week at Omega! xoxo n.
