1069. Repressed Emotions Are Making You Sick: Heal Fatigue, Anxiety, & Pain w/ Nicole Sachs
Hey Heal Squad! Are you ready to shift how you see your pain, anxiety, and even your daily stress? Well, you’re in luck cause in Part 1, Maria is joined by Nicole Sachs, LCSW, psychotherapist, mindbody expert, and author of the upcoming book Mind Your Body! Nicole’s here to break down why so many of us are stuck in chronic fight-or-flight mode, and how that stress can actually lead to physical symptoms like fatigue, back pain, migraines, anxiety, and even long COVID.
She shares the powerful concept of the emotional reservoir—how our repressed feelings (yes, even the ones we don’t know we’re holding on to) can overflow and start showing up in the body. Nicole also dives into the real science behind why your body might be using symptoms to protect you… and what you can do about it.
If you’ve ever thought “everything in my life seems fine, but I still feel off”, tune in and get ready to feel seen, understood, and empowered to heal!
HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:
Chronic pain isn’t random, it’s a protective response. Your nervous system may use symptoms like migraines, fatigue, or illness as a way to avoid deeper emotional threats.
Your “emotional reservoir” could be overflowing. Suppressed emotions from your past may be fueling present-day anxiety, illness, or burnout—without you even realizing it.
Self-compassion is essential. Learning to speak to yourself with kindness is one of the most transformative healing tools available.
