#98: S3 Ep98: Anxiety, Vertigo, Migraine, Long Covid, and WAKING UP with Jonah Primo Jul 19, 2024

Show notes

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 health 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.

S1 Ep177: Episode 177 - The Energy of What's Next Apr 08, 2022

Show notes

When you don't know how you feel about something, or what to do, the best path forward is to get quiet and touch into your energy and your intuition. Today is one of those days for me. I have a felt sense of what is coming for me, for you, for us. And at this moment I need to make space for it to manifest. Today on the pod we will be discussing what it means to assess your energy, find our what's right for you, and do what matters to bring you to "what's next". For me, this means a brief hiatus for the podcast. Lots here to consider and absorb. Join me for an important discussion for both of us. XOOX n.

S1 Ep176: Episode 176 - Taking Care Of You Apr 01, 2022

Show notes

Hello my loves! Omg so busy these days, and was unable to grab the time to do a totally original podcast, so today is an intro from me and a repeat of my podcast on burnout from last fall. I am not sure if I will need to do another hiatus to prepare for all the exciting things coming next in our work together - TBA (so please don't mistake this for an official announcement of a break) but it's a good reminder to PAUSE, and consider how fast you are moving and how much energy you are giving to yourself in your own busy life. I hope you enjoy this reprise, and I'll see you next week! XO n.

S1 Ep175: Episode 175 - REAL TIME HEAL: Pelvic/Bladder Issues and Managing Shame with Camille Mar 25, 2022

Show notes

I love doing Real Time Heals - they allow me to empty my mind and hone in on exactly what someone needs. Today was no exception! The only thing I will say here, is that Camille is so tapped in, smart, and willing about this process that she sounds more like a success story than a RTH. Having said this, we get down to it. And come up with a rich conversation on shame, and all its implications. Such an important topic. Join us! XOXO n.

S1 Ep174: Episode 174 - How To Soothe Yourself in Times of Collective Suffering Mar 18, 2022

Show notes

As we continue to live in a world fraught with suffering, I am receiving many messages seeking guidance on how to move through this time with grace. We are rounding out two years of a global pandemic, and the war In Ukraine is a constant reminder of the fragility of the things we take for granted. Today I do my best to help soothe your heart and mind, with reminders of how we can take best care of ourselves when we have no control over the events that unfold around us. In mindbody work, Dr. Sarno often spoke of "soothe factors" as essential in buoying this necessary work we must do to be well. Today we talk about doing our very best to cultivate as many moments of "soothe" possible in our daily lives. Hang with me and let's do our best to center and ground. XOXO n.

S1 Ep173: Episode 173 - Recovery From PGAD and the Mindbody Connection with Laura Mar 11, 2022

Show notes

There are some things that are more difficult to discuss than others - sensitive, vulnerable topics that don't get enough air as a result of the bravery it takes to discuss them. PGAD (Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder) is certainly one of them. Alongside myriad other pelvic conditions, PGAD is one I have been hearing about privately from people for years. Laura is the first to have reached out wanting to discuss it, and share her story. It's so important that we talk about the hard stuff, the quiet stuff, the stuff that makes us want to hide. Because here we are, bold and beautiful, living a human life. Enjoy this heart centered and healing conversation. XOOX n.

S1 Ep172: Episode 172 - Insecurity, Shame, and Expectations - The Second Arrow Mar 04, 2022

Show notes

I've aways loved the healing message of the Buddhist principle of the second arrow. The first arrow is unavoidable - our natural reaction to life. The second arrow is the way human beings perpetuate our own suffering - judgement of the first arrow, or expectations attached to it. Today we explore both! Join us, and perhaps find some peace around the ways in which life seems to be slinging arrows at us all the time. We have the power to make the whole process more gentle. XOOX n.

S1 Ep171: Episode 171 - Family Trauma, Chronic Pain, and Stunning Recovery with Cecilia Feb 25, 2022

Show notes

Cecilia grew up in a big and loving family. The only issue, though, was that the family's story was marked with striking trauma. Little Cecilia, in the wake of the turbulent events, intuitively knew that the best thing she could do for her struggling parents was to stay "quiet and convenient". As a grown woman, events unfolded that left Cecelia in terrible, widespread chronic pain that had her nearly housebound. Join us for a story of tragedy, love, despair and finally, triumph. As so many people tell me, Cecelia expresses tearfully that she is now grateful for the pain - after all, it delivered her here to share this brilliant story with us all. XOXO n.

S1 Ep170: Episode 170 - The Roots of People Pleasing Feb 18, 2022

Show notes

Wow - wasn't entirely sure where this podcast was going to go when I sat down at the mic to record it, but it went deep. People pleasing begins as early as birth, when we sense that we need to exude a certain kind of energy to match our human tribe. As we get more sophisticated, so does the people pleasing game, and as we grow it can require us to repress many, many big feelings in the process of putting ourselves last. When the authentic self is unreachable, so is most of healing. Today we get down to business in uncovering the roots of people pleasing, why it keeps us "safe", and what to do to set ourselves free in mind, body, and spirit. Join us! XOOX n.

BONUS EPISODE: Lisa Schlosberg's New Pod! The Fundamentals of Mind-Body Healing with Nicole Sachs, LCSW Nov 01, 2021

Show notes

Hello friends! As I get ready to bring the pod back, I am taking this opportunity to debut my friend and colleague Lisa Schlosberg's very brand new baby. Lisa has been inspiring people for years with her own work, and in the beautiful ways in which she carries the message of mine. I hope you enjoy this interview we did together!
Nicole Sachs, LCSW shares her story and explains this work in the clearest of terms. Topics:

Nicole Sachs, LCSW and “The Cure for Chronic Pain”
TMS and Chronic Pain Defined
Emotional Eating Non-judgmentally

[3:55] Nicole tells her story. At 19 her “back goes out” and she is diagnosed with an abnormality in her lower spine. The doctor warned her there would be no more long car rides, no more sports, and that it was very unlikely she would be able to have children (something she wanted more than anything in the world). She was told that without surgery, she would not live long past 40. Nicole headed back to college and began to live a life of chronic pain and chronic fear. [8:43] Nicole becomes aware of the work of Dr. John Sarno, a revolutionary medical doctor, speaking about how a mind-body connection, our trauma, and the emotional world actually affect us physically. She began exploring case studies and decided to do a science experiment on herself. Wondering with curiosity in place of fear, “Is there more to this than I had known before?” [11:30] Nicole describes freeing herself of chronic pain through Dr. Sarno’s work, JournalSpeak, and understanding the mind-body connection. It has been 20 years since she’s had back pain despite her scans looking exactly as they did when she was 19 years old. Nicole gave birth to 3 beautiful children. She is free. [14:40] Nicole explains the connection between the emotional world and physical world as it pertains not only to chronic pain… and also emotional eating. [17:48] Nicole touches on brain science and how our nervous system chooses chronic pain as an act of love. [21:45] Lisa explains how her work and Nicole’s work are very much the same and how we are connected through human pain. [25:45] Nicole explains how she created her brand and how she came up with “The Cure for Chronic Pain,” even though she believes it is truly, “The Cure for Everything,” and how chronic pain includes not only physical illness but also mental issues like anxiety and/or depression. [30:09] Nicole says the pain is not in your head and is not your fault. Your nervous system is operating in a way to protect you. [32:45] Nicole talks about the influence of Lisa’s work on her own relationship to emotional eating and body image, and how she can observe herself emotionally eating and invites herself to feel her feelings. [34:15] Lisa shares how negative thoughts about her body were a distraction from grieving her father’s impending death. [39:58] Nicole shares what Lisa believes to be a very important concept: “Life is a choice between what hurts and what hurts worse.” [43:45] Lisa and Nicole share about their past and present relationship with emotional eating. [48:13] Nicole gives a quick overview of her work and what it means to “get free.” Resources: Nicole: For More Info and Nicole’s Online Courses and Virtual Retreats: www.thecureforchronicpain.com Listen to “The Cure for Chronic Pain” Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts “The Meaning of Truth” https://www.amazon.com/Meaning-Truth-embrace-truth-create/dp/1482387352 JournalSpeak Facebook Group Nicole Sachs' Support Circle Lisa: Instagram: www.instagram.com/lisa.schlosberg Join the Community with an Out of the Cave Membership: https://www.outofthecave.health/membership
