The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

As we round out the Summer Series, it seems fitting to tackle this vast topic which contributes to so much TMS - the fact that everything in life comes to an end one way or another. The fascinating thing about mortality, is that it's not just about one's lifespan. It's also about all of our little moments, and the fleeting nature of human existence. Similar to the compulsion of the brain and the nervous system to "protect" us from our big feelings with our pain, our attention is so easily ripped away from the things we most value. The question is.. why?? So much good stuff here! Join us as we dive deep into the reasons we run from the impermanent, and the solutions that live in staying...

Sitting backstage on my lunch break as we round out this incredible week, I find myself without a microphone or much privacy, but I wanted to come and briefly inspire you as I reflect on some stories from the week.

Our parents represent our first, most powerful, and most primary relationship in life. We define ourselves by the ways in which we fit into their needs and definitions. As we get older and more awake, sometimes it is hard to continue to grow on our own without addressing the impact and fallout of these primary relationships. And also, of course, this begs the question of our OWN roles as parents. WE KNOW THAT OUR TMS IS RELATED TO THE RELATIONSHIPS IN OUR LIVES, AS WE ARE HUMAN ANIMALS - SOCIAL ANIMALS - AND NEED RELATIONSHIP TO SURVIVE. BUT WE ARE ALSO ALWAYS LOOKING INTO THE MIRROR OF RELATIONSHIP TO ASSESS OURSELVES, OUR WORTH, OUR VALUE, OUR GOODNESS. Join us today as well discuss it all - our relationships with not only our parents and our children, but our TMS and ultimately ourselves. So much good stuff here. Much love! -n.

The word "trigger" has become so ubiquitous in our society, it has lost its truest definition: a reaction to a current day stressor that reminds us so much of past trauma, we actually relive it. This is a slippery slope for maintaining loving relationships and feeling safe in the world. Triggers can be internal (sensations in our bodies) or external (reactions to situations), and both can lead us to act in ways that are not authentic to our growth and happiness. Let's talk about triggers, why they happen, and what you can do to be awake and aware to what's happening within you. This way, you create a pause between stimulus and reaction in your life. This way, you have the chance to be free. XOXO n.

So many of you are speaking to me about the same thing - you just don't know it. It might look like it appears as resistance to doing the work, fear of not doing the work, or shame about the places you are falling short, but the genesis is the same: That pesky voice in our heads that is informed by old ideas and past trauma. The voice tells us, "You can't. You don't follow through. There's not enough time. You're failing. You should be worried, stressed... panicked!" We must learn to interpret its rantings. The voice in your head is not the absolute truth. The reason its message is tricky is because we are used to trusting it - it is OUR OWN. It contains truth of course, but we need to pause and examine what's really going on to find our way to the solution. Today on the pod we hear and reference several of your Speakpipe messages around this voice, and the ways in which it may be keeping you stuck. Once we shed light on the Nervous System's role in all this and the ways you can shift your mindset, there is so much room for growth and healing. Join us! XOOX n.

Today on the podcast we do another "knowledge drop" focused on a specific topic that you guys have been discussing - How do we get underneath the big feelings that feel dangerous to the Nervous System in order to transform our lives? There are heavy hitting emotions that are deemed by our primitive brains as unsafe, like Rage, Despair, Shame, and Terror. There are two ways we channel those feelings into things that feel "manageable": allowing (without knowing we are doing so) our bodies to carry them as chronic issues, or living in the space of "lighter" emotions like frustration, annoyance, worry, and irritation. Today we discuss it all, and how we might be brave and bold enough to scratch the surface of these lighter states of discomfort, and get to where the healing resides. XOOX join us! -n.

Hello my loves! Today on the podcast we are going to talk about the 'all too common' Symptom Imperative. Are you exchanging one pain for another? Does your migraine resolve, only to be replaced by pelvic pain? Does JournalSpeak alleviate one symptom only to have anxiety or fear fill the vacuum? You're not alone. Learn all about the Symptom Imperative, my own version (the struggle imperative), and how to accept and befriend whatever comes next. SUCH good and rich stuff here. Sending love XOOX n.

This is a travel week for me, so today is a less formal "knowledge drop" about something that has been on my mind, heart, and body. As I deal with the grief of saying goodbye to Blu, I am also experiencing what are ubiquitously labeled as symptoms of Long Covid. It's fascinating for me, as a mindbody practitioner, to experience "having" something, but not give it the meaning that, say, a layperson would. This makes space for me to observe it without fear, and allows me to teach you about the opportunities for mindset in your own life. I hope today is a good day. Keep sharing with me on Speakpipe! I love to hear from you, and I will choose another story to share next week. Much love, xo n.

OMG Thank You for sharing your stories, questions, and struggles with me. They are all being heard and noted, and you are making such a difference in helping me to plan for the future of this podcast. Please KEEP THEM COMING! Today on Episode 2 of the Summer Series, we are taking on the concept of belief, trusting yourself, "Knowing" from the seat of your consciousness, and so much more. We share a story from Michelle, a therapist and mother of two who is struggling with the belief that this work can "work" for her. Her lovely vulnerability gives us all the gift of this essential conversation. I look forward to sharing it with you, and hearing from you about how you felt about it. Sending big love! xoxo n.

Welcome to Episode 1 of our Summer Series! I'm so excited to be together. Today, we are going to set the mindset for our summer. As you often hear me quote William Shakespeare, "Expectation is the root of all heartache." Today, we discuss all the ways in which high (and low) expectations can keep us stuck and suffering, and the mindset of awareness that can lead to transformation. Any transition can bring anxiety, but remember that anxiety and excitement are experienced exactly the same in the human body, so we have so many opportunities to reframe our thinking and make room for relief. Today, we discuss it all, along with some emotional stories from my own life that will fill you in on what is happening right now. Stay tuned to find out how you can contribute to our community this summer, and maybe even have your question featured on air! So much to look forward to. So glad we are here, and present, and willing. Much love, n.
