Description

Thought By Thought Healing is a podcast for those looking to overcome chronic pain & symptoms.


I am Jen Johnson, chronic pain coach, and this show is focused on discussing everything related to curing persistent symptoms with evidence-based techniques. I am a Christian and when I first discovered the mind-body syndrome - also referred to as TMS, neuroplastic pain, & neural circuit pain - I was struck by how the neuroscience of pain and the mind body connection align perfectly with scripture. I recovered from my own story of pain as I understood how our thoughts, beliefs, attitudes & emotions played out in the nervous system in ways I never knew was possible. On this show, I interview experts in the field & discuss the intersection of the gospel & mind-body medicine. I also openly share tools I used in my own healing journey, and still use today with my clients.


My hope is that you, too, will learn how to heal. Reversing chronic pain includes emotional, mental and spiritual healing. It truly changes your life; something you don’t want to miss out on. Thought by thought, you can find freedom. Welcome to the journey.

Christine shares how she grew up as a people-pleaser, never really knowing who she was, and how that led to perfectionism, over-responsibility, and a strong inner critic. For years she blamed food, went to countless doctors, and lived in fear of symptoms. But real healing didn’t begin until she turned inward—examining her emotional wounds, fear, and false beliefs—and began to see herself through God’s eyes instead of through pressure and performance. We talked about everything from boundary-setting and emotional awareness to the fear of food and how she reintroduced foods through trust instead of fear. Christine even opens up about how her healing has impacted her performance as an athlete, especially in disc golf, where she learned to let go of the outcome and play from a place of peace and joy. This conversation is all about overcoming—not just IBS, but the narratives and burdens that kept her stuck. If you’re navigating mind-body symptoms or chronic pain, her story is a reminder that healing is possible, freedom is real, and you’re not broken.Website: thoughtbythoughthealing.com Email: thoughtbythoughthealing@gmail.com #tms #mindbodyconnection #mindbodysoul #mindbodyspirit #fightorflight #nervoussystem #youcanheal #thoughtbythoughthealing #sarno #unlearnyourpain #chronicpain #fibromyalgia #footpain #centralsensitization #sibo #ibs #carpaltunnel #chronicillness #chronicfatigue #insomnia #thewayout #somatictracking #somatictherapy #painfreeyou #neuroplasticpain #neuralcircuitpain #ppda
Hi friends! I'm so excited to share this powerful conversation with you. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Alicia Batson, a double-boarded MD in Internal Medicine and Psychiatry, who also happens to have walked her own 10-year journey through chronic pain. Her story is incredibly validating and encouraging for those of us walking the mind-body healing path. Despite all of her medical training, Dr. Batson missed the mind-body connection for years—until she discovered the role her brain was playing in creating and maintaining her symptoms. In this interview, she opens up about what it took to recover and how rewiring her nervous system through emotional work, brain retraining, and lifestyle changes gave her back her life. Dr. Batson now helps others discern whether their symptoms might be brain-based and gives clear, medically-informed direction for those seeking that elusive “green light” to begin mind-body work. She’s currently taking new patients, and I’ll link all of her info in the show notes below. If you’re in the thick of chronic symptoms and wondering if this approach is right for you, I hope this conversation encourages you that healing is possible — and it might just be closer than you think. 💛 00:00 – Introduction to Dr. Alicia Batson and the concept of brain-generated chronic symptoms 03:33 – Alicia shares her personal 10-year journey with unexplained chronic pain 06:16 – The onset of symptoms at a stressful job, including arm weakness and elbow pain 10:26 – Despite being double-boarded, Alicia had no training in mind-body medicine 14:22 – Diagnosed with repetitive strain injury; symptoms worsened despite medical care 24:54 – The breakthrough moment: realizing the pain was coming from her brain 26:28 – Hope begins: connecting with Dr. Howard Schubiner and starting true recovery 45:04 – Alicia completes a triathlon as a test of her healing — no pain returns 53:17 – The deepest healing came from changing her personality traits (perfectionism, fear, people-pleasing) 57:46 – Final encouragement: don’t give up — your healing could be right around the corner Her info: Current: Talkiatry.com App she cofounded: OvidDx Video Program: Take Back Your LIfe Private Practice: Center for Treatment of Psychophysiologic Disorders, Nashville, TN My info: Website: thoughtbythoughthealing.com Email: thoughtbythoughthealing@gmail.com #tms #mindbodyconnection #mindbodysoul #mindbodyspirit #fightorflight #nervoussystem #youcanheal #thoughtbythoughthealing #sarno #unlearnyourpain #chronicpain #fibromyalgia #footpain #centralsensitization #sibo #ibs #carpaltunnel #chronicillness #chronicfatigue #insomnia #thewayout #somatictracking #somatictherapy #painfreeyou #neuroplasticpain #neuralcircuitpain #ppda
If this story of healing inspires you, like or share this video so that others can know there is hope for healing! Known as Forest online, my guest today shares his story of healing from what was diagnosed as repetive strain injury or over-use injury. He had a full recovery as he understood the symptoms were just his brain. From there, he went on to found TMS Wiki - a website that has provides free resources for those healing from neuroplastic symptoms.https://www.tmswiki.org/forum/forums/... Here is a bit about him: After an 18-year battle with neuroplastic symptoms attributed to 'repetitive strain injuries,' Rob, known as Forest online, fully recovered by employing a mind-body approach. Inspired by his recovery, he founded TMSWiki.org, the largest peer-driven resource dedicated to educating the public about neuroplastic symptoms. Rob created the 'Thank You, Dr. Sarno' tribute book, which was featured in Dr. Sarno’s New York Times obituary. He also provided technical support to Alan Gordon in developing a free 21-day recovery program, donated to the wiki during fundraising for the Boulder Back Pain Study. Rob co-founded and has served as Vice President of the Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Disorders (ATNS) since its inception, reflecting his ongoing commitment to raising awareness and support for mind-body healing. Professionally, Rob runs discussion sections for adult learners pursuing their master's degrees in finance and management, with a specialization in health economics and decision-making.

In this episode Jen Loeffler and I talk about how to lay aside the weights… so that we can run the race before us. We discuss what the weights might be in terms of burdens & pressures that are half truths & distortions that end being our core beliefs. We walk through Hebrews 12:1-3 unpacking the pure gold that is here, including how Paul unpacks the mind body connection and how these burdens can cause weariness, and weakness - chronic fatigue.

We are back to the basics in this episode where I am a guest on Clare Backhouse's podcast talking about Pain Neuroscience Education. This is a great start for those just starting the journey of understanding pain neuroscience! In this episode, I get to be a guest on Clare Backhouse Podcast called "Nutrition With Love". Here's what she says about the episode... This episode may shock you: Pain is not always what we think it is. We're used to the idea that pain sensations always accurately register physical disease of injury. But much research has found that some kinds of pain are actually alleviated by working on the brain, not the body.Website: thoughtbythoughthealing.comEmail: thoughtbythoughthealing@gmail.com#tms #mindbodyconnection #mindbodysoul #mindbodyspirit #fightorflight #nervoussystem #youcanheal #thoughtbythoughthealing #sarno #unlearnyourpain #chronicpain #fibromyalgia #footpain #centralsensitization #sibo #ibs #carpaltunnel #chronicillness #chronicfatigue #insomnia #thewayout #somatictracking #somatictherapy #painfreeyou #neuroplasticpain #neuralcircuitpain #nutrition
Bobby Geevarughese is a physical therapist specializing in TMS and MindBody Syndrome. Thank God, we need more of these!In this episode we talk about many things including how grief and parenting responsibility can cause pain. For him, the pain came in the form of chronic hip pain that was healed as he worked through those stressors.We also discussed the importance of movement and how important that is. For some of you on the fence, and still afraid to move, it can be helpful to get the green light from a PT, such as him!And we also discuss a few biblical misconceptions that can be important to work through in your healing.Check out his website - found here. https://www.painrehabpt.com/Enjoy!If you are interested in working with me, Jen Johnson, from a Christian perspective - reach out for a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.Website: thoughtbythoughthealing.comEmail: thoughtbythoughthealing@gmail.com#tms #mindbodyconnection #mindbodysoul #mindbodyspirit #fightorflight #nervoussystem #youcanheal #thoughtbythoughthealing #sarno #unlearnyourpain #chronicpain #fibromyalgia #footpain #centralsensitization #sibo #ibs #carpaltunnel #chronicillness #chronicfatigue #insomnia #thewayout #somatictracking #somatictherapy #painfreeyou #neuroplasticpain #neuralcircuitpain #ppda

If you are anything like me, you experience unhelpful, dysregulating thoughts that seem to just stick around. They almost feel attacking. These thoughts are often the culprit for fear/ stress symptoms in our bodies, and so taking the time to stop, look at them and simply notice them, can help create the separation you need from these thoughts. You are not your thoughts. You are a child of God.

By using the senses that God gave us, we can orient our attention towards our surroundings and even enjoy them. This activity can be used when you are feeling a sense of panic, urgent energy, spiraling thoughts and especially when you are having a symptom flare up. It’s foundational principles come from Peter Levine. It is a simple way of actively re-training your subconscious brain to notice the simple ways in which you are safe.

If you have ever wondered for who and under what conditions people heal (or don't) from mind body syndrome/ psychophysiologic disorders, then this podcast is for you! For me, the fascinating part of this conversation is discuss why people *don't heal. Douglas Guiffrida has done qualitative research around this very subject. After he did the study, he discovered the following to be of importance: belief of mind body connection, willingness to experience & express emotions, and do the homework. He also discovered the importance of secondary gains.

If you have a child with chronic symptoms of any sort, you will want to listen to this one. There is so much hope - your child can reverse their symptoms by understanding the mind body connection. And you can be their support. Dr. Kinderman and Dr. Yanek work with children & teens with chronic pain by using playful, interesting ways of teaching them about the brain's role in their symptoms. In this interview we talk about their personal pain healing stories, the benefits & challenges of working with kids (opposed to adults) & also advice for the parents to be able to support their child in the journey of healing. Kinderman and Yanek recently did a TED talk on their therapy model.

In this conversation Charlie Merrill (Physical Therapist) and I talk about going from avoidance to movement and why it's so important for overcoming conditioned responses. That being said, it's scary to reintroduce movement when it's so painful, so we address this fear & with some tips to overcome it. I also ask him if the following diagnosis or labels are the cause of pain or not? Muscle Weakness, Ehlor Danlos, Inflammation, Plantar Fasciitis, High Arches, Does aging cause pain? and more. Here are the links to Charlie's resources. Enjoy!

Medical Imaging can be really misleading. What if the normal abnormality you see on your MRI isn’t actually the cause of your pain. **This information is not a substitute for medical advice; always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized guidance related to your health.More and more research is showing that we all have normal abnormalities such as: disk signal loss (ie, desiccated disk),disk height loss,disk bulge,disk protrusion,annular fissures,facet degeneration,and spondylolisthesis, and even abnormalities in the knees, hips and pelvic area don’t have to cause pain.
