Mackenzie Kennedy is a massage therapist who combines her practice with mind body syndrome - slowly planting seeds for those in pain to start understanding the role the brain has in symptoms. In this interview we talk about her journey out of chronic pain and how she sees it as "the journey of being human." Her and I both trained, as practitioners, with Dr. Howard Schubiner and have remained friends ever since, although we have never (not yet) met in person.

God created our brains with neuroplasticity and the power to change. Since most chronic symptoms are caused by neural circuits in the brain, this means we can heal ourselves. So, yes, because of Him, we have the power within to heal our own symptoms. But ultimately, it's through Him. He has given us a Spirit of Power, Love and Sound mind. This video addresses what it means to have the power within and what we DON'T turn to in order to heal. I also discuss what we DO turn to and how we use that power to heal ourselves.

I have had a few people request more meditations and somatic practices. So, here you go! This one is on trusting your body and the way it was created. Fear interferes with how the systems in our body work and when we can get out of the way and stop trying to fix them or worry about them, it actually helps them to function at their best.

In this episode, Jen & I talk about the role of God's Redemption in the process of healing from chronic pain. We started working together 1 year ago and so we thought it would be cool to have her share what healing looked like for her and how the healing process (God) has changed her how she sees herself and God.

Thoughts can be incredibly controlling, but they don't have to be. 

In the same way that we can learn to respond in a helpful way to our symptoms we can also respond to our thoughts in a way that disempowers them. 

I talk about the 4 ways I found the most powerful:

1. Say No.

2. Say Yes.

3. Don't itch it.

4. Name it. 

I also talk about religious OCD, (scrupulosity). If you would like an article by Michael Emlet sent to you, shoot me an email! [email protected]

In this episode I was able to interview Tamara Gurin & Rita LaBarbera who have both recovered from CRPS through doing emotional work and targeting the brain.

CRPS is different than many other manifestations of TMS because it has visible representation in the body and yet it is still caused and curable by the brain.

We also discuss Dystonia and other forms of Mind Body Syndrome. There is so much hope! We talk about the role of doubt, confusion, whether a diagnosis is helpful or not, and whether additional therapies are helpful to recovery. This conversation was very inspiring for me, and I'm sure it will be for you too.

In this episode I talk about my personal “healed” life. I am going through a rough week with a lot of emotions that in the past would have caused me to have a flare up.

This is a practical episode where I made an effort to notice and jot down what types of tools I was/ am using that I believe are what can create healing.

You might want to take notes :)

Well friends, I absolutely loved this interview, and I mean it. I interview lots of people on this podcast and I really felt like Dr. Dan Ratner and I really see eye to eye on a lot of this.

We talk about so many powerful things that you aren't going to want to miss.  

*The word trauma and what it means to have it "stuck" in your body. 

*Column Work - dividing symptom underlying causes into three columns. Doubt. Emotions & Power. We also define what Core Narrative means. 

*Finding your CORE narrative and why that is important.

*Finding your true identity. 

*Coming off of Benzo's & Insomnia.

This week I talk about how arguing with our symptoms is foolishness and it’s important to respond with confidence to our symptoms. Sometimes our emotions, thoughts and symptoms are folly.

I also talk about how our symptoms are crumbs that lead us to healing. They are a big fat golden arrow that leads us to healing and the sooner we can be thankful for them, the sooner we will see the pathway to healing.
