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. My first ever VIRTUAL FULL WEEKEND RETREAT is live and on sale!

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.

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. My New IGTV Series, "I Am Evidence" is now on Instagram @nicolesachslcsw.

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.)

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. VIRTUAL MINI RETREATS ON SALE NOW.

Hello my fellow shelterers in place! Welcome to the world of what the hell is going on. There are so many question marks in the world right now, but one certainty: we have time right now to figure out what's next for us. During a potentially stressful and frightening time, it might be tempting to retreat into our shells of fear, and choose to hold our breath and wish it to be over. But! We can also choose to encapsulate ourselves into a chrysalis of change and growth, taking this unique opportunity to make boldly healthy choices for ourselves despite natural, human resistance. Join me today for a conversation about this choice between mental and emotional "quarantine" versus "chrysalis", and how I am working it out in my own life. Perhaps you will be inspired to reexamine yours! Sending big love to you. XO be well. -n. VIRTUAL MINI RETREATS ON SALE NOW.

When I sat down first thing in the morning (my time) to chat across the pond with Adam Wight in the middle of his day, our tone of voices were just a bit more free than they might be now. It's interesting to think how quickly our days are changing! But we will all make it through, as we continue to actively choose love over fear. In today's episode, Adam and I delve into a lifetime of repressed emotions over his life with his mother, and the obvious and natural connection that has to his anxiety, digestive issues, and other TMS symptoms. Join us for an impactful and eye opening real time heal. Stay safe and connected out there, wherever this day finds you. Sending big love.. n. VIRTUAL MINI RETREATS ON SALE NOW.

Hello my fam. Wow - we are living in unprecedented times for sure. Today I decided to depart from my usual advice-giving guidance and provide an opportunity for soothe and pause. Dr. Sarno spoke often of soothe factors - things we could do that either lit up our minds or fed our souls, that had nothing to do with the urgency of healing (or in this case, Coronavirus). On today's pod, I present soothe factors in 3 acts: A reading of a thought provoking piece of writing, a joke, and a young girl's attempt at her version of a beautiful song as she teaches herself the ukulele. I hope you enjoy it, and it allows you to take a break from your own brain for a moment. Sending big love from me to you.. n.

After receiving hundreds of emails regarding how to emotionally handle this global issue, I decided to dedicate the pod today to the Coronavirus and how we can keep ourselves in the best space, mind body and spirit. Remember that fear and worry are simply information which inform us of the next, right, considered action to take. After that, they begin to steal from us and make us even more susceptible to illness.

Per usual, these Real Time Heals are incredible. Anna's pain started when she was pregnant, which makes sense as it is a time of such big feelings! Yet as she continued to go from doctor to doctor in fear, it persisted and worsened. After several failed expensive treatment experiences and a nightmare medication moment, Anna decided to shift her mindset and try something new. Join us for an eye opening session where we get to the bottom of what is keeping Anna stuck: toxic perfectionism and her struggle with belief. So many gold nuggets in this one - join us!

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.

Today, Eric Hissom boldly and bravely addresses his battle with pelvic pain (yes! men get it too and I hear from them all the time) and shares with us how his pain can move and morph to many areas of his body. Although his TMS work has eliminated the back pain, the pelvic pain lingers and we get down to why. Join us for an enlightening and inpspiring (per usual) real time heal!

I hear every day about people's struggles with food restrictions, elimination diets, fear of eating certain foods, and frustrations that although they have restricted themselves down to almost nothing, their symptoms persist. I am here today to shed my own light on the topic. I am not a nutritionist. I am a chronic pain psychotherapist who has seen thousands of people go from terrified of food, to eating everything they want after doing this work. I don't claim to be the only solution, but perhaps I can offer a solution that can work... for you. Join us and see. Sending big love! xo, n.

What a fantastic interview I had today with Dani Fagan. Dani is a member of our JournalSpeak online community on Facebook, and reading her posts has been inspiring to me over the months as I've watched her healing journey. Then one day I got an awesome email in my inbox, with the subject line: THANK YOU NICOLE, I AM HEALED! I was immediately drawn into Dani's beautiful energy, and reached out to ask her onto the pod. Delightfully she agreed! Today we hear Dani's amazing story of back pain recovery, and engage in a brave and candid discussion of her unexplained infertility (in a bit of a real time heal moment). When we share our stories, we share our strength. Join us! My Chicago Workshop retreat with Dr. John Stracks is coming up next month - Feb 22-23rd in Chicago.

There are so many amazing things about having an evolved brain, but there are also side effects - we give everything tremendous meaning, and meaning can beget fear. Today on the pod we explore the ways we project worry and suffering onto future events, and the ways in which we can do the work to circumvent this process. (Spoiler alert: We use BluDog as an example.) The end result of doing this work with patience and kindness for yourself is tremendous gratitude. Join us and be inspired!

What a joy to sit down with the amazing and resilient Angie Firmalino to discuss her journey through medical trauma (implanted with the device Essure which she has now successfully gotten removed from the market after a ten year advocacy battle) and her myriad symptoms which had confounded her for years. She knew that all of the trauma and debilitating conditions in her body must be related, but she had no idea how... until she found my work. One day, scrolling through podcasts, she found the story of our own lovely Scarlett Murray. This began her incredible journey of hope and healing. Join us today as we share some deep and beautiful knowledge, and wisdom. Recovery is possible, when you have a roadmap. Angie's story is proof of that. Sending big love. XO n.

I get a ton of questions all the time about Flare Ups, and how to handle them. Today on the pod we take a deep drive into the concept of Flare Ups and why they are as normal and expected as the nervous system itself. The correct mindset around these natural occurrences is key to moving through them with grace. Here's to greater healing all the time!

Do you really want the pain to leave? WOW. What a question, right? I think it isn't discussed often enough how many of us inadvertently hang onto the pain, often without realizing it, because we fear that we might need to do more or change something if it went away. Today, Christine Hauptman and I sit down and discuss her journey from pain with no diagnosis and anger, to willingness, self compassion and peace. Christine began to heal at our Omega Retreat last summer, and continues to do so. She is also brave enough to explore whether she's really ready to let go of the last vestiges of her pain, and we have an opportunity to broach this important topic together. Join us!

Real time heal sessions have become my favorite conversations on this podcast. I have been doing one-on-one therapy for years, and the power of being in this sacred space on air really moves me. Today Whitney Rydman and I have a frank and heart opening conversation about grief and loss, feeling unseen and unheard, and all the symptoms that can express those issues in our bodies. We connect body image and perfectionism to fibro pain, and become really clear about dealing with the symptom imperative. What a great session! I'm thrilled to share it with you.

The definition of perspective is: True understanding of the relative importance of things. Wow - what an impactful concept. Today on the pod we discuss the crucial role that perspective plays in our healing and happiness, and the many ways we can gain correct perspective into the really important things in life.

I CANNOT express the power of surrender in quieting the nervous system. It is literally everything. If you are doing your JournalSpeak, meditating with loving kindness for yourself, and making sure to quiet the debating society in your head about whether or not your pain is due to a structural abnormality (it's not), then perhaps the reason you are still struggling is because you care too much, or you're trying too hard. I often say, "love more, care less". This episode is about exactly that. I reached out to the sage Dan Buglio of Pain Free You to engage in a dialogue about this today with me on the Pod. It is my heartfelt hope that this discussion yields a nugget of truth or two that allow you to surrender completely - to stop giving your pain and symptoms the energy of fear and overwhelm. When you are able to arrive at a place of "I give up. I don't care if I hurt or not," you have discovered the holy grail of mind/body recovery. Even if you think this impossible, Dan and I have some guidance for you. Allow it to sink in. The life you save is your own. XOOX n.

Today you are in for a special treat. This interview with Julie is my one of my favorites ever. She has come through a grueling battle with Occipital Neuralgia to complete freedom, and she is articulate and wise in her telling of it. This is Julie's unedited original email to me: Nicole, I wanted to thank you. Make sure to add: occipitial neuralgia to your list because you helped me be cured of that! :) Thank you for helping me finally thrive, the way I should've been for years and years and years. I know you don't even know me, but your program and book completely saved my life...and my soul!!! I can't ever thank you enough. All my love, Julie :) The spirit of this email is what you will hear in this interview. Enjoy, and be inspired to take back your life, and your soul.

Happy Podcast Day!! Today I take an excellent question from my FB community about the difference between reacting and responding, the power of pausing and considering a different assessment of the situation, and how this doesn't lead to the repression of more emotions. The beauty of the ability to *pause* is incredible, and paired with a consistent JournalSpeak practice can offer you so much freedom in the way you interact with your world (not to mention bring your pain waaaay down!) Join me for an important discussion on how this matters to your journey, and your life. Also today I introduce an opportunity to support my work, and enhance your recovery with more original content from me, or even direct interaction between us.

OK, so listen to this. I get a million emails a week, and many of them are people asking me about their specific symptoms and how to get rid of them. I read them all (scout's honor) but obv I can't respond to all of them. Angie's plea was different - she had a suggestion: "Have you ever thought of treating a person in real time on a podcast? I would be open to that and it would be so powerful." Wow, what a great suggestion! And thus, Angie became my *first ever* "REAL TIME HEAL". Angie and I jumped on a call having never met or spoken, live on air, to do a real time session about her symptom imperative: Burning Mouth Syndrome. It's not easy to be on the spot (for either of us!) but I think our conversation contains a lot of great info that will be helpful to all. For those of you interested in applying for the next REAL TIME HEAL, write to me at [email protected] with your story and some background about you, and I will choose my next guest very soon! I hope you enjoy this new and scary concept. I loved the experience and can't wait to do it again!

Today we begin with an amazing email I received from a woman doing my work somewhere in the world. She had been diagnosed with Lyme and treated, and months later was still incapacitated. After accepting the process and doing the work, she has no trace of Lyme and is pain free. As she deals with the symptom imperative of anxiety, she is calm and secure that it will go away. Exactly the way this works! We discuss her question of how to tackle self criticism, and also answer a query from my Instagram community about how to stop needing the pain to be safe. So much good stuff here! I look forward to sharing it with you. NOTE: I have been invited to do a second 5 day retreat: this one April 5-10, 2020 at 1440 Multiversity in Santa Cruz, CA.

I had the best time talking to Grant Lewers. He is so wise and articulate about his journey from debilitating back pain to complete freedom, and there are so many great take aways from this conversation. If you've ever worried that JournalSpeak is too negative, and you are nervous to think about so much dark stuff, Grant has a bullseye explanation for you as he was the same.

One of the biggest mantras of my practice is: Start with the end in mind. What do we want out of life? If we don't know where we're going, it's very difficult to get there. Today on the Pod we discuss what it means to live in peace, and the ways in which we can most effectively get there. Annoyingly, this often involves patience and forgiveness, two topics that come up a lot in my Instagram questions (for more on this follow me @njsachs). I delve into these topics and more, including the beautiful synergy between my work and the Curable App, my first sponsor who I SO believe in. Don't forget, The Cure for Chronic Pain listeners get 50% off a year's subscription when they visit getcurable.com/nicole! This is an amazing deal, and I hope you take advantage of it and kick your healing into high gear. Finally, my OMEGA retreat for next summer is LIVE AND ON SALE!

There are few people in the world who get the mind/body connection like Dan Buglio. Through his personal journey and his discovery of Dr. Sarno's work, Dan has grown to explain this stuff better than almost anyone I know.

We all wish we could control our worlds - the way people react to us, the outcomes of our loved ones, the behavior of our coworkers. We have this illusion that if we could just control our worlds, we would be safe from pain and suffering. It's simply not true - something most of us (me included) need to learn the hard way. Join us today on the Pod as we discuss this common illusion, and the actual healthy ways in which we can control what we can control: ourselves, and our actions fueled by love.

The first time I saw Scarlett in person she burst into tears - not tears of pain and sadness, but tears of relief and gratitude. How amazing is it when we get to cry for this reason? It's just the best. Scarlett's failed surgery for sciatica led her into a downward spiral of neuropathy and pain so disabling, she was using a walker at the age of 46. After learning about Dr. Sarno and doing my work, Scarlett now lives an active life free of chronic pain of any sort. She is a bright light of hope and inspiration, and it is my joy to share her with you today. XOOX n.

Thanks to my lovely instagram following (follow me @njsachs if you haven't yet for all the content I put up there) I got the great suggestion to discuss Panic and panic related disorders on the Pod today. I know how scary it is to feel like panic is ruling your life, and today I discuss the ways in which it is impacting me personally as well as helpful suggestions on how to handle it in your own life. Hand in hand with addressing panic in your life is the practice of radical acceptance, so we talk about that a lot here too! Love to you all. XO n.

I first met Barb Mastrianni when she flew all the way to Chicago from the East Coast just to hear me speak for a few hours. I was floored (and a little scared it wasn't worth it!) but she was really moved and changed from the experience, and has gone on to live an inspiring and beautiful story of recovery. I am thrilled to interview Barb today. She is so wise and articulate about every important piece of the TMS journey, and even with technical issues it is one of my favorite interviews to date. Join us as we talk about her story and the role of FEAR... and how important it is acknowledge this common state of thinking, and turn it around.

We are back from OMEGA and it was OFF THE HOOK. Such amazing healing right in front of my eyes, and so many aha moments and lightbulbs going off all over the place. The one aspect I don't think people expected was my emphasis on community. They didn't realize that they were going to get far more than information; they were being invited to realize that they're not alone - a powerful piece of information. Join us today on the Pod as we explore the integral part community plays in healing, and how to start manifesting a community of your own.

Listen guys - this is short and kind of lame because I am so wrung out from giving it my all at OMEGA. What an amazing, magical week it has been. I'm sure I will find my words to explain the gratitude, connection and healing that has taken place between these four walls and over the rolling hills and shade trees of this magnificent campus... I just don't have many right now, so this is short and sweet. I wish you light and love, and catch me next week with much more energy as I share the gold nuggets that came out of this transformative experience.
