The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

Today on the pod we are talking about Anxiety, one of the favorite topics of this community. When I say fave of course I know you don't WANT to have to talk about anxiety, but alas, we are such an anxious bunch. Here's why: Anxiety and Chronic Pain/Illness/Symptoms/Syndromes/Diagnoses are interchangeable. Anxiety is one of the most common symptom imperatives, and so often I hear from you guys that the pain has abated, but the anxiety is way up. Let's talk about it all today, understand anxiety for what it is (not disordered, but human and normal) and learn to live in the solution. XOXO n. Producer: Lisa Eisenpresser OMEGA IS LIVE!

Marian is back! My first ever podcast guest 4 years ago, Marian has come so far and has sage wisdom for you all about how to live a chronic pain free life. This does not mean that things are perfect. It means that she has a toolkit and knows how to use it. We cover all the best practices (including how two crazies like us can meditate), and we talk about her whole journey and what it's revealed about her trauma (capital and small T), and her ability to express it in healthy ways. So much good stuff here! Enjoy XOOX n. Producer: Lisa Eisenpresser OMEGA IS LIVE! COME SPEND THE WEEK WITH US 6/25-6/30 Click here!

So often we feel pulled in two directions with this work: How can I unearth and reckon with the things in my life that are causing my body to channel pain, and also hold space for a positive mindset and openness to ease? A common misconception, I have found in my many years of doing and teaching this work, is that either we can't have both, or we are hurting ourselves by feeling so much heavy stuff. Today on the pod, Magid puts words to this in his thoughtful Speakpipe, and I'm here to answer! Central to this discussion is the fact that if we don't take the necessary steps on this journey, however uncomfortable, our bodies will be unable to release the pain and symptoms of illness. Today we talk about it all. Thank you to Magid and all of you that send me your questions and reflections on Speakpipe. Please keep them coming! Much love to you today. XO n.

** TRIGGER WARNING. EMMA IS DOING GREAT, BUT DOES DISCUSS SUICIDAL IDEATION AND THE DEATH OF A FAMILY MEMBER BY SUICIDE ON THIS EPISODE ** When Emma and I first connected, she was requesting a RTH for issues related to Lupus/other autoimmune conditions, and I jumped at the chance to highlight such an important topic, and help her to move the needle on her healing. But guess what?? Emma dedicated herself so much to the work and the process, that in the few weeks it took to get us on the air, she's nearly completely better! This doesn't stop us from having a highly impactful and impassioned conversation about childhood trauma, the healing journey, and the big questions she is still inhabiting. Join us for a RTH turned success story that will touch you and guide you in many ways. Happy New Year! XOOX n. Producer: Lisa Eisenpresser OMEGA IS LIVE!

I've learned this year that we need to get lost in order to be found. The obstacles in the path are the path. Our challenging parts of life (family, work, self-worth, relationships) are our sacred spiritual practices. Happily, all of this hard work also results in the cessation of chronic pain. What a joy it is for me to be on this trip with you. I love that I can use my own life as an example and a lesson - the best and most effective elements of a message are the most personal. I know what I live, and I can teach it best. Today we touch upon the lessons I've gleaned from 2022, and what I wish for you in 2023. We have so much to do together! Sending big love for peace and presence in the coming year. XOOX n. Producer: Lisa Eisenpresser OMEGA IS LIVE! COME SPEND THE WEEK WITH US 6/25-6/30 Click here!

Today as we inhabit The Holidays 2022, I bring to you a revisit of an incredibly impactful concept: Pre-grieving and the attendant anxiety and lack of presence it brings. Almost a year after it originally aired, this episode holds particular significance considering what has transpired, and the lessons therein. Join me for an important reboot of a topic that plagues so many of us, and the mindset necessary to release us from its grips. I wish you Everything Good, Bright, and Hopeful. Much love, xoxo n.

We received a Speakpipe that really influenced us and got us thinking. Dana piped in to say that she was experiencing insomnia and numbness after leaving her job to stay home with her kids, and also knew somewhere inside she was stuck - that her deeper worry and projection was that when she got "done" with these parts of her life, then she might actually do something that made her feel fulfilled. It's a tale as old as time - waiting to be done with the hard parts and hoping that THEN we will be able to do what we really want to do. Yet (as you're probably gleaning) it's a trap. The only moment we have is this one, and everything that is important and meaningful is happening right now. It's a tough one to embrace when we are walking around asleep (which we all are until we're not), but once you wake up like Dana is doing, it's helpful to have sone guidance about what to do next. That's what we're doing today! Join us. XOOX n. Producer: Lisa Eisenpresser OMEGA IS LIVE! COME SPEND THE WEEK WITH US 6/25-6/30 Click here!

I heard from Grace long before I met her at Omega. She was deeply struggling, and reached out for help. The only thing I could advise her (and could advise anyone) was to take advantage of the resources I offer, and do her best to do the work. Well, boy did she! Not only did Grace do the work, she came to Omega and bravely and boldly lived her journey out loud. Grace's story has lots of peaks and valleys, but more than anything it has striking success. Join us for a great success RTH, and walk away with amazing insights and advice for your own life. Also, remember that Omega is early this year - June 25-30th! Sign up now if you want the best accommodations. It's such a perfect holiday gift for oneself; the gift to change your life the way Grace has changed her own. Much love! XOXO n.

Hello loves! Today on the podcast we are hearing from Erin, a cancer survivor who is curious as to how we can square the need to eat healthily and regulate our gut microbiomes with this mind/body work. Erin's symptoms are stuck and she is not sure where to go, so I am here to weigh in (no pun intended lol). I have found over years of practice, writing, and teaching, that there is no system more powerful and bossy than the brain/nervous system combo, and without addressing it first, nothing will move. Let's get into it - would love to hear your thoughts. Speakpipe me! Sending big love as we kick off the often complicated holiday season. XOOX n. Producer: Lisa Eisenpresser OMEGA IS LIVE!

When I got Claire's email, I was so filled with gratitude that I knew our interview had to be our Thanksgiving episode. Claire spent a lifetime (and I mean a lifetime) battling TMS in myriad forms, never knowing that there was a solution that connected all of her symptoms. Plantar fasciitis, fibromyalgia, and finally larynx and voice disorders that brought her to her knees - Claire became ready to look outside of the medical model for answers. When she landed on this podcast, she knew she was at the precipice of something that was going to change her life. And now... Claire is pregnant! Not only is her pain COMPLETELY GONE, but she is poised to be such a wonderful mother now that she won't be parenting through the lens of her own issues. It's such a gift, one that I've lived personally. Enjoy this inspiring conversation full of so much helpful guidance. Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate! XOOX n.
