    S4 E27 - All Over Musculoskeletal Pain, Post-Viral Infection Symptoms, and SO MUCH MORE with Scotty

    Scotty's symptom list is so long I'm not sure I can remember it all to include here, but let's give it a try: back, neck, foot, leg, arm, wrist pain, "tennis elbow," pelvic and groin pain, anxiety, panic, depression, dissociation, tooth sensitivity, burning mouth, and post viral infection symptoms. When you listen, you'll hear the whole thing from his mouth! It may sound unusual, but often in the rearview mirror we end up identifying a lifetime of TMS that has plagued us and led us to live in fear. As I always advise, Scotty took the medical route for each of these diagnoses, but found himself despairing with no enduring solutions. When he finally came upon the work of Dr. Sarno, the game began to change. When he found my work via a YouTube interview I gave, everything started to make sense. Join us today for a conversation with someone who REALLY talks and talk and walks the walk. Loved connecting with Scotty and dropping so many moments of truth. You're sure to be motivated to keep going. Lots of love to everyone out there. It takes willingness and intention, but this work can change your life.

    S4 E 26 - Upper Back Pain and Bladder Issues: Good Thing, Bad Thing: Who Knows?

    When symptoms move through me, the first place I want to discuss it is here on this podcast. This week I have had some pain, and my JournalSpeak revealed some interesting patterns in my life that it may be time to challenge. I have always had an innate desire to control things, people, situations... am I alone? When I am unable to do so, sometimes my body clocks the danger. Yet, when I reflect on these impulses, I have to admit - I'm not so sure if they are "working." Today I invite you into my heart and mind. Hopefully my insights will shed some light on your own stuck places. Sending big love! xoxo n.

    S4 E 25 - CFS, Vestibular Migraine, POTS and much more with Louise

    One day, seemingly out of nowhere, Louise began to feel unwell in her body. An inner uneasiness gave way to tremors and crushing fatigue, and her life devolved into living in her bed. For over eight years, bed bound, Louise struggled to figure out what was wrong with her, seeing countless doctors and specialists and being diagnosed with things like POTS, CFS/ME, fibromyalgia, and chronic vestibular migraine. It wasn’t until she learned about the tenets of MindBody Medicine that she began to turn it around. Join us today for an incredible story of recovery. Louise’s path has many twists and turns, and walking it with her will give you powerful insight into how to heal yourself. There is nothing more profound than the human story of suffering, surrender, discovery, and growth. I’m honored that my work was integral in, as Louise put it, bringing her home to herself. And, of course, eliminating her chronic pain and fatigue. Much love to all of you! XOOX n.

    S4 E24 - Is Your Shame Serving You?

    Sometimes I have a free hour or two, and my favorite activity is to put in my AirPods, listen to a podcast, and walk. It feels so free and renewing, and sometimes it's where I come up with my best ideas for this podcast. Recently, I was listening to This American Life, Suddenly! A Mirror! and a story in it made me think - how many of us are living our lives defined by past experiences that have encoded us with SHAME? Too many, I presume. Join me for a conversation which may just wake you up to some automatic thought patterns and self-definitions that are no longer serving you. In your TMS recovery, it can make all the difference. XOOX much love! Hope to see you in a couple days at OMEGA! -n.

    S4 E 23 - The Difference Between Rumination and Excavation

    Lisa and I found ourselves talking about a frequently asked question in our communities: Won’t thinking about my dark stuff make me worse? This is a typical fear of many people endeavoring TMS work. I have such empathy for the perceived quandary - it makes sense that paying attention to seemingly negative content might make it grow. Yet, we both know this is the opposite of truth. Then Lisa suggested a juxtaposition: let’s consider the difference between rumination and excavation. Whereas rumination is automatic and unproductive, excavation is intentional and leads to healing. I took the challenge of explaining it through the lens of JournalSpeak, and here we are! I think this episode will enable you to challenge your resistance and open yourself to the incredible transformation that JournalSpeak offers. Lots of love from both of us!

    S4 E 22 - The Role of Community in the "Messy Middle" with Lisa and Jamie

    A lot of people in our communities talk about the difficulty of the “messy middle” - when you are no longer asleep and unaware that your symptoms are TMS, you are doing the work and carrying on, but you’re also challenged daily by the feeling that this is a lot to handle. Jamie, an OMEGA alum, has also been a member of our Heal With Nicole community, and honors the role of connection and friendship in navigating this messy middle place. Lisa and I treasure this experience as well. It reveals the importance of connectedness and the strength of the human spirit. She joins us today alongside Jamie to discuss our shared experiences in both our virtual and in-person OMEGA communities, and the ways in which our pain becomes an entry point to finding “our people” - being able to love and connect in new and deepening ways. Join us for a conversation that reveals the messy middle as, in a sense, all of life. When we embrace it as such, we have to power to transform both our physical and emotional health.

    S4 E 21 - Male Pelvic Pain and Social Anxiety with Adam

    It's so easy to get caught up in the "physical" when you are stricken with chronic pain out of nowhere. This is exactly what happened to Adam. Otherwise healthy for his whole life, Adam began having severe pelvic and back pain, and spent years in the frustrating cycle of specialists and failed treatments. In retrospect, Adam can see so many things in his life that he was unconsciously avoiding, key among them facing his social anxiety and "addiction" to the gym for safety. Today, chronic pain free and full of wisdom and perspective, Adam and I unpack it all. You don't have to be a man or a person who's expereinced pelvic pain to get SO MUCH out of this episode. Such a great and heart-centered conversation. Enjoy! xo n.
