The Cure for Chronic Pain with Nicole Sachs, LCSW

Learn how to JournalSpeak⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.yourbreakawake.com/journalspeak

Patti came to this work after years of living with trigeminal neuralgia, often called one of the most painful conditions a person can experience. She had tried everything she could find to make the pain stop—specialists, restrictive diets, supplements, holistic treatments, and an exhausting amount of vigilance around what might trigger the next attack. Then something shifted. Patti reached a place of radical acceptance and, almost immediately afterward, stumbled across the story of someone who had recovered using my work. What began as an attempt to get rid of excruciating facial pain became an entirely different journey into JournalSpeak, childhood trauma, people-pleasing, fear, and the ways her nervous system had been trying to protect her for decades.

This conversation goes far beyond a traditional recovery story. Patti and I talk about why rushing to heal can actually communicate more danger to the nervous system, why pain can unconsciously create permission to receive care when you’ve spent your life being “the strong one,” and how self-sacrifice can masquerade as love while keeping old childhood patterns alive. We also get into scarcity, radical acceptance, the complicated truth about loving imperfect parents, and why healing eventually becomes about so much more than symptoms. Patti’s pain brought her to this work, but what she found on the other side was a completely different relationship with herself, her husband, her children, and the life she gets to live. XOOX n.

When you speak to us, we hear you. People have been asking for more content that isn't simply a success story - they want to hear about the "messy middle" as I like to call it. The dark corners of recovery when things feel really hard and hopeless even though you've seen light before.

When I first met Jacqueline, she was down for the count with back pain. After learning about the brain science and doing a consistent JournalSpeak practice, she became pain free and even came on the pod to tell her story. As time went by, however, Jacqueline fell into a trap to which we are all susceptible: the "I got this!" fallacy that can sometimes lead to living in fear. She found herself back in terrible pain, and landed in our membership community. As we surrounded Jacqueline with love and support, she began to get better and better. But her journey was hard and full of many tears. Today, we talk about it all. There is nothing like the inspiration of another human's brave story. Sending love to you, wherever you find yourself on this path. xoxo n.

When Rachel Gofman was in college, she had terrible back pain - just like me! After going down the Western Medical rabbit hole to no avail, she discovered Dr. Sarno and her back pain subsided completely. But years later, when Rachel was in her Doctorate program for Physical Therapy, acute and widespread pelvic pain struck. Similar to me as well, this time she forgot all about Dr. Sarno and went full steam into traditional medicine in the hope of helping herself. When the best specialists told her there was, "nothing else they could do for her," thankfully she considered Sarno again, and this time found my work. Rachel had to confront her scientific training around the human body, and realized that there is a huge hole in so much that is taught to PTs and all medical professionals. Embracing MindBody medicine, Rachel was able to TOTALLY recover from debilitating pelvic pain, and now is a MindBody PT! Enjoy this thoughtful conversation about all things TMS and the ways in which an open mind can save your life. XO n.

⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LEARN HOW TO JOURNALSPEAK

What happens when you finally understand that your chronic symptoms are rooted in the mind-body connection, but you’re not yet experiencing the freedom you know is possible? The door behind you has closed: you’re no longer endlessly searching for a physical cure to what you now understand is a nervous system problem. But the path ahead still feels uncertain. This uncomfortable, disorienting space is what we call the messy middle.

In this episode, I’m sharing a powerful bootcamp Lisa and I led for our BreakAwake community about how to navigate this stage of healing. We explore why the messy middle isn’t evidence that the work isn’t working, but a necessary passage between understanding the solution and learning to live inside it. If you feel like you know too much to go backward but aren’t yet free enough to trust what’s ahead, this conversation is for you. Join us! XOOX n.

THIS WILL SELL OUT SO BOOK SOON!!

Lisa and I will be teaching at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Miraval Austin from September 25–27 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠for a relaxing, immersive retreat experience rooted in this work. You can learn more by visiting ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.NicoleSachs.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and clicking the Retreats tab.

When Jonah Primo, host of the in-app podcast Work in Progress on the WAKING UP app contacted us, Lisa and I were elated. We are long time fans of WAKING UP and its founder, neuroscientist Sam Harris, and we were enthusiastic about sharing space with such a like-minded person. But that was just the beginning. Jonah's own pain story was stunning, and we quickly jumped on the chance to have him on our podcast to tell his tale of complete despair to recovery using the mindset and tools of MindBody medicine. After being a totally healthy and athletic 27-year-old, Jonah found himself so swallowed by a laundry list of symptoms that he quite literally struggled to walk. As he became skeptical of the medical model to cure his pain, he turned in our direction, and the rest is history. Join us for a striking tale of recovery from some of the most common (yet most terrifying) symptoms we hear about - vertigo, migraines, anxiety, and the dreaded Long Covid. I know you will get so much out of what we discuss. Much love! xoxo n.
